"Moving from Vision to Action"
In November 2006 over 300 people gathered in Ottawa to celebrate the accomplishments of Canadians with disabilities over the past 25 years. Over 100 organizations stood together in partnership and solidarity, signing the Declaration of Principle and joining in the discussions which focused on Building an Inclusive and Accessible Canada.
On
November 22, 2007, Canadians with disabilities will gather once again in Ottawa
and move into action. Using the 2006 Declaration as the foundation,
initiative partners will collectively design and launch a national action plan
focusing on Building an Inclusive and Accessible Canada.
Organizers are now in the
process of :
·
Constructing an
updated, interactive website with information about the 2007 initiative and
activities.
·
Drafting a national
action plan which will be posted on the website between July and September
where partners can provide interactive recommendations and critical feedback.
·
Developing the November
22nd agenda.
