This year will mark 25 years since the first National Metropolis (Metropolis Canada) conference was held. Today, Metropolis Canada is by far the country\u2019s largest annual gathering of immigrant service providers, policy makers and researchers. It\u2019s thanks to so many of you who come to the Conference each year that we\u2019ve remained the country\u2019s premier event on key issues around immigration, integration and settlement. Over twenty-five years of conversation together, we\u2019ve created an unprecedented body of work on migration. This anniversary offers us an important opportunity to take stock of how immigration, integration and settlement have evolved over time and reflect upon what the future might hold. It also comes at a pivotal time with the country admitting record numbers of newcomers as our world navigates elevated degrees of economic and political and environmental uncertainty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please join us in Ottawa at Westin from March 16-18th 2023 for the annual Metropolis Canada Conference: \u201c25 YEARS OF CONVERSATION ON MIGRATION: OUR LEGACY, OUR FUTURE\u201d<\/strong>. We fully expect this will be the largest Metropolis Canada Conference to date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The call for proposals aims to cover the widest possible range of topics on immigration, integration, inclusion and identities. As always, immigrant service providers, policy makers and researchers and other key stakeholders from across Canada will have the opportunity to hold in-depth conversations about emerging policy needs, best practices share the latest data and research findings so we can all leverage the vast knowledge that has been cultivated from our Metropolis network to move the immigration conversation forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

La migration est une r\u00e9alit\u00e9 qui fa\u00e7onne l\u2019humanit\u00e9 depuis la nuit des temps. Acc\u00e9l\u00e9r\u00e9e par la mondialisation et le changement climatique, elle est aujourd\u2019hui un enjeu majeur pour les pays de l\u2019espace francophone.  Ces pays r\u00e9partis sur les cinq continents sont \u00e0 la fois lieux de d\u00e9part, de transit, de destination et d\u2019accueil des pLes mouvements migratoires contribuent aux rencontres et \u00e9changes socioculturels ainsi qu\u2019\u00e0 la formation d\u2019identit\u00e9s hybrides et de communaut\u00e9s diasporiques.
