World Refugee Day, celebrated every year on June 20 under the auspices of the United Nations, pays tribute to the millions of people forced to leave their countries due to conflict, persecution, or human rights violations. It also serves as a call for solidarity, inclusion, and respect for the dignity of all people seeking protection.
In this spirit, the Observatoire international pour la démocratie et la gouvernance (OIDG) and the Centre de recherche-action sur le vivre-ensemble (CRAVE) will hold, on Saturday, June 27, 2026, a Day of Solidarity and Support for asylum seekers and refugees living in Canada.
This initiative aims to provide concrete support to individuals navigating what is often a complex journey, by giving them free access to professional resources and advice tailored to their reality. Participants will have the opportunity to meet with:
• A lawyer; • An immigration consultant; • An employment counsellor; • A resource person for administrative support.
📅 Date: Saturday, June 27, 2026 at 9:30 a.m. 📍 Location: Salon du personnel, Collège Ahuntsic 9055 Saint-Hubert Street Montreal (Quebec) H2M 1Y8 🎟️ Free admission
Access to reliable information and personalized support remains essential to fostering the social and economic integration of asylum seekers and refugees.
This day aims to create a space for listening, sharing, and guidance, allowing participants to better understand their rights, their procedures, and the services available to them.
The event will also feature a musical performance by artist Jean Jean Roosevelt, whose presence will help make this gathering a moment of fellowship, hope, and living together.
