How to allow anti-racist principles to permeate all that we do, how we structure our training plans, resource provision, partnerships, our engagement, who speaks on issues, how and what knowledge is shared etc.

Anti-racism Framework
The Anti-racisme Framework is a starting point for Canada’s international cooperation sector to inform its approach to anti-racism in a collective and proactive way – one that leaves room for collaboration, knowledge sharing and continuous learning.
The Framework should not be considered an achievement but an inclusive springboard for future anti-racism efforts.

outcomes and address the sector’s legacy of racial bias.
