The Carrefour d\u2019Action Interculturelle (CAI) includes in its main focus a desire to raise awareness about the realities of immigration and the problems people may encounter. As part of this, actions are carried out to fight prejudice, and discrimination, notably as tools of intervention (cultural mediation) through projects of artistic expression.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Initially called the \u00ab Saviez-vous que\u2026? \u00bb project, the \u00abInclusion: Au travail !\u00bb campaign was launched in the fall of 2021 on Carrefour d\u2019Action Interculturelle (CAI)\u2019s social media.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

As a central element of the campaign, a travelling exhibition on the barriers faced by immigrants in employment took off in November 2021 in the National Assembly of Quebec\u2019s Agora as part of its Visitor\u2019s Program. <\/span><\/p>\n

This workshop, designed in 2014 by the Carrefour de ressources en interculturel (CRIC), is inspired by concepts used by the City of Barcelona and the Council of Europe. In it, prejudices are treated as myths so that they can be deconstructed without making people feel guilty. Since its beginning, this workshop has been offered hundreds of times in various settings, from people in high school to adults and seniors, from local communities
and from immigrant communities.<\/p>\n

Donner, recevoir, rendre: Une bo\u00eete \u00e0 remplir (Give, Get, Give Back: A Box to Fill)<\/strong><\/p>\n

This cultural mediation project was made possible thanks to the financial support of the City of Quebec within the framework of the Qu\u00e9bec, Collectivit\u00e9 accueillante program. It was directed by artist collaborator M\u00e1rcio Montoril Prado and the Carrefour d\u2019Action Interculturelle (CAI) intervention team. This project uses art as a force for self-affirmation, with the aim of deconstructing prejudices. This project was in collaboration with eight partner organisations: La Dauphine, the Centre social la Croix-Blanche, the Francisation class at Saint-Malo primary school, the Centre solidarit\u00e9 jeunesse, GRIS-Qu\u00e9bec, R.I.R.E 2000, the theater La Bord\u00e9e and Laura L\u00e9merveil. Each of these groups (including a group from the CAI) participated in two workshops that allowed for openness to others, creating bonds of trust and questioning prejudices. In addition, the use of art as a springboard for self-affirmation was the first step towards a social approach where the differences of all are recognised as the riches of a unique mosaic.<\/p>\n

Collaboration on the exhibition \u00ab Qu\u00e9b\u00e9coisEs, musulmanEs\u2026 et apr\u00e8s? \u00bb<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 2016, the Carrefour d\u2019Action Interculturelle (CAI) participated in the creation of the exhibition \u00ab Qu\u00e9b\u00e9coisEs, musulmanEs\u2026 et apr\u00e8s? \u00bb The popularity of the exhibition allowed us to recreate the experience in 2017, during the last two weeks of March. For this second edition, the City of Quebec, Patro de Charlesbourg and Rochebelle high school agreed to host the exhibition as part of the Semaine qu\u00e9b\u00e9coise des rencontres interculturelles. On this occasion, the CAI offered awareness-raising activities to a diverse public.\"\"<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
