Our
Commitment
Equality:
Our projects are based on partnership
and mutual exchange of ideas. We do not have offices or employees
in the South
Self Determination:Our
development projects, their cost and priority are determined
by our southern partners according to to current needs of their
communities
Local ownership:Our
development projects increase the capacity of local people and
local community based organizations and to have local control
in poverty reduction
Responsibility:Educating
Canadians about the challenges that people in the developing
world face is an integral part of the work we do. We aim to
strengthen North-South, North-North and South-South relationships
Solidarity:New
Canadians immerse us in the realities of communities in the
developing world and, through their involvement with CFCA, raise
awareness of those realites and create opportunities to partner
on projects overseas
Future:We
foster long-term partnerships with organizations that are working
for positive, sustainable social and economic change. We are
committed to understand what our role is- as Canadians and Albertans
-in the struggle to alleviate global poverty and ensure a future
for next generations
