The Government of Canada, and in particular DFAIT, should cooperate more directly with civil society organizations to identify opportunities and provide forums for public engagement.
CCIC takes as its starting point the values and experience of more than 90 organizations that it represents within the Canadian church, labour, and development communities. Organizations like the Canadian Catholic Organization for Development and Peace, Oxfam Canada, Médecins Sans Frontières, World Vision, and the Canadian Labour Congress, have worked for over 30 years in partnership with communities and counterpart organizations in developing countries to end global poverty and promote sustainable human development. Many of CCIC’s members are organized around citizen involvement on a voluntary and local level.
The Government of Canada should encourage and fund public deliberation of important global issues as part of government policy development and in particular promote the participation of and new roles for civil society in foreign policy.
