The CACI is one of the founding members of the Bordeaux-Cartierville Intercultural Committee. It was created in 2012 by local organizations as a way to respond to the multicultural reality of the neighbourhood which is among the most multiethnic in the city of Montreal.

Mission:

• Encourage the participation and integration of communities of diverse origins to Quebec society;
• Create a space for dialogue to encourage the promotion of diversity and the development of intercultural ties on a day-to-day basis;
• Promote actions that combat stereotypes, discrimination, racism, intolerance and exclusion;
• Offer training on intercultural matters to actors intervening in different environments.
• Since it was set up, the committee has benefited from the CACI’s logistical support.

• Anait Aleksanian, executive director of the CACI
