Inclusive Cities Series: Halifax Fusion – Immigration and Diversity
A great city is one that attracts people from all walks of life, fostering a dynamic culture that is welcoming and one that encourages people to get engaged in the community in the long-term. The Immigration & Diversity Action Team works with a network of organizations and individuals who are passionate about promoting cross-cultural learning opportunities and networking for all Haligonians, shaping Halifax as a place of opportunity for everyone who chooses this fine city as their home.
