As a member of the Toronto delegation to Germany to exchange ideas and best practices on immigrant integration, Elizabeth speaks about how TRIEC’s organizational model and successful work on engaging the employer community was replicated in other cities.
The delegation from Toronto, led by Maytree’s president and the chair of TRIEC’s board of directors Ratna Omidvar and Maytree’s chairman Alan Broadbent, is visiting four cities in Germany:
- Stuttgart, November 28
- Hamburg, November 29
- Berlin, November 30 and December 1, and
- Cologne, December 2
In each city, Toronto’s delegates share with their German colleagues what’s working in Toronto and also learn about local immigrant integration practices. One of the hoped-for outcomes of this exchange is for each delegate to bring back a good idea that their organization may be able to implement.
