After identifying gaps in the support services available to migrant families and the resulting inequities that befall them, refugee community leaders and town residents founded the Refugee Community Partnership. We are a community-driven organization working to build unique, holistic, and comprehensive support infrastructure for relocated families. All of RCP’s initiatives are born out of grassroots community assessments; from the start, we listen. Through community feedback sessions we regularly evaluate our efficacy, reflect on lessons learned, and make course changes as needed.

Opening in 2014, the Canadian Museum for Human Rights will take you on a journey of inspiration unlike anything you’ve experienced before. From the moment you enter through its massive stone roots, to the time you emerge in its light-filled Tower of Hope, you will be moved by the power of human rights. Canada’s newest national museum rises from the Prairie earth in Winnipeg at The Forks, where the Red and Assiniboine rivers meet on Treaty One land at a doorstep of the historical location of Métis occupation and Louis Riel’s provisional government, the Museum sits on land that has been a meeting place for over six thousand years. The only museum in the world solely devoted to human rights awareness and education, it stands as a beacon for visitors from around the globe. Ramps of glowing alabaster criss-cross galleries designed to challenge, motivate and uplift. Multi-sensory exhibits explore human rights concepts with an international scope, but through a uniquely Canadian lens.

Leadership Edmonton continues to serve as a growing, permanent community asset, built and guided by volunteers and financial supporters alike. Leadership Edmonton's founding members are The Edmonton Community Foundation, Enbride Pipelines Inc. MacEwan, and the United Way of Alberta and Capital Region.

Program participants explore leadership as it relates to leading edge human, social and cultural development in Edmonton-and the rest of the world. They learn how to connect local communities and initiatives to the global context and the human situation. In doing so, they become better prepared to meet the challenges of their own personal leadership journey, and to make significant contributions in the various communities they serve.
