The Honduran human rights investigator explained to Canadians why their activism and support are important for people struggling to defend their rights not only in Guapinol, but across the Global South.

Development and Peace ― Caritas Canada urges the Canadian government to call for a ceasefire and invites Canadians to give generously to a matched-fund collection in aid of besieged families in Gaza.

The papal exhortation argues for the untenability of climate change denialism; the need to reconfigure multilateralism; and the ethical imperative of remaining hopeful and engaged.

The Aid for Afghanistan Coalition is encouraged by the Government of Canada’s recent passage of Bill C-41. This is an important move forward and efforts are underway to restart vital work that provides assistance to the people in Afghanistan.

The office of the Canadian Ombudsperson for Responsible Enterprise has launched investigations into a sporting goods giant and a mining company, but it lacks the powers it needs to do a proper job.

Canada can and must legislate to halt the havoc that giant global corporations in the fashion and mining industries are wreaking across the planet, from Bangladesh to Brazil and beyond.

A decade since fast fashion and commercial greed claimed the lives of over 1,100 garment workers in Bangladesh, we are rallying to pay homage to their memory and to demand fairer terms and stricter legal protections for workers everywhere.

In solidarity with our partners’ and their communities’ struggles against mining-related injustices in the Global South, our members mobilize in the industry’s hometown to denounce, protest, educate about and advocate against its abusive practices.
