Inspirer l'action pour la citoyenneté mondiale

Le programme Inspirer l'action pour la citoyenneté mondiale (IACM) est une initiative financée par Affaires Mondiale Canada. Il vise à sensibiliser le public canadien et les intervenants pertinents aux enjeux mondiaux à l'échelle du pays. Le programme sera mis en œuvre par les huit conseils provinciaux et régionaux pour la coopération internationale dans leur province ou région respective.

IAGC focuses on involving more Canada-based individuals, particularly youth, in international development by enhancing their support for and participation in Canada's efforts to eradicate global poverty.

Les conseils et le RCC mobilisent les Canadiens et les organisations de tout le pays dans le cadre de diverses initiatives et activités d'engagement du public (EP) et d'éducation à la citoyenneté mondiale (ECM), qui visent à renforcer la contribution des Canadiens, en particulier des jeunes, aux efforts de développement international du Canada en faveur de l'égalité des sexes, de l'autonomisation des femmes et des filles, de la réduction de la pauvreté et des inégalités, et de la réalisation des objectifs de développement durable (ODD).

L' IACM est mis en œuvre par chaque conseil dans sa région. Les conseils et le RCC ont réussi à mobiliser le public grâce à:

  • Des initiatives de renforcement des capacités
  • Des programmes de leadership pour les jeunes
  • L'élaboration de programmes d'études
  • Des recherches sur les approches décoloniales, antiracistes et féministes de l'engagement public
  • Des délégations jeunesse
  • Des activités dans le cadre de la Semaine du développement international
  • D'autres initiatives et événements d'engagement public et de citoyenneté mondiale à travers le pays

Depuis son lancement en 2019, plus de 200 000 personnes ont participé aux programmes liés à l'IACM. Nous avons directement mobilisé plus de 2,5 millions de personnes sur différentes plateformes et avons touché plus de 12 millions de personnes grâce à nos communications.

Chaque conseil adapte ses programmes aux besoins et au contexte de sa région, créant ainsi une gamme d'activités aussi diversifiée que notre pays.
