A CMLI Core Process the Inter-community Engagement and Dialogue
We value and believe that one of the most important outcomes of this program is to ensure that our Alumni have experienced, and gain skills in inter-community engagement through dialogue. This occurs in the diverse Muslim community, as well as the other Canadian cultural communities too.
CMLI strives to ensure that throughout the program experience, our participants are developing the insight, skills, and knowledge through skillful dialogue to engage, and understand each other's cultural and ethnic communities.
Also, as important as this is, it is also critical that our participant's engage non-Muslim cultural communities.
This is an area that CMLI has focused great attention and resources to develop and occur every program cycle.
During the first program cycle, the participants engaged members of the Aboriginal, and First Nations communities, and the Mennonite, Japanese, and the Caribbean communities through deliberative dialogue processes.
We are continuing to engage other cultural communities to expand our program base and our networks and linkages to strengthen community.
This picture illustrates our engagement with one of our communities - the Aboriginal and First Nations.
