MANDATE

The Canadian Multicultural Education Foundation (CMEF) was incorporated in Alberta in 1990. It is a non-profit volunteer society founded by a small group of veteran educators, communicators and advocates for multiculturalism and human rights to promote public awareness of the opportunities and benefits of an evolving multicultural society in Canada, and foster individual and community initiatives and support for policies and programs that serve all Canadians.

CMEF pursues two broad strategies to achieve its mission:

• It fosters and develops community education activities.
• It works to develop and collaborative network across Canada of organizations with compatible interests and objects.

The organization remains small and tightly focused, taking on a few carefully chosen projects and strategic partnerships each year.
