Introduction:
The Council on Islamic Relations of Canada is dedicated to promoting understanding and cooperation between Muslim communities and the wider Canadian society. Our goal is to bridge gaps, address misconceptions, and create opportunities for meaningful dialogue. Islam is often misrepresented in the media, leading to misunderstandings and negative stereotypes. This can cause division and fuel hostility. The Council works to correct these misconceptions by providing clear and accurate information about Islam’s values and teachings, both within the Muslim community and in the broader society. While many organizations focus on the needs of Muslims, there is often a lack of engagement with the wider public. The Council aims to change that by reaching out to people of all backgrounds and beliefs. We organize events, educational programs, and community outreach to help create better understanding and stronger relationships between Muslim and non-Muslim communities. The Council on Islamic Relations of Canada is committed to making a positive difference in the lives of Muslims and non-Muslims alike. We believe that through education, dialogue, and cooperation, we can contribute to a more inclusive and harmonious future for all Canadians.
- Vision: Understanding, equality and integration.
- Message: Reciprocation, preserving identities, and representing Islam consciously.
- Strategic Goals: false stereotypical ideas about Islam and Muslims.
- Activities: focus on community engagement through educational programs, outreach initiatives, and support for local mosques and Islamic centers. We organize events such as monthly seminars, youth programs, outreach, food distributions, supporting new Muslims, and celebrations for Ramadan and Eid, while promoting the values of Islam.
