International Development Week (IDW) is held annually in Canada during the first full week of February. IDW aims to inform, inspire, and involve Canadians in Canada’s international development efforts. It is a time for us to reflect and take pride in the many ways Canadians are helping to eradicate poverty and make our world more just, equitable, and sustainable.
This year, International Development Week begins Sunday, February 2 and runs till Saturday, February 8. Many events are planned across Canada, some in person, others online.
Check out events sponsored by Cooperation Canada and other events sponsored by each of the eight provincial centres for international and global cooperation below. (You may wish to explore each of the regions because many events will be offered virtually. You aren't limited by geography!)
We hope you are inspired by Canada's and Canadians' contributions as you explore the many learning opportunities offered during International Development Week.
