ISLAMABAD: The Canadian high commission arranged a dialogue, ‘Strengthening indigenous communities: empowerment through climate action, inclusion and gender parity’ on Monday. Canadian High Commissioner Leslie Scanlon, Punjab Minister for Minorities Affairs Sardar Ramesh Singh Arora, Serena Hotels Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of Aga Khan Rural Support Programme (AKRSP) Aziz Boolani and representatives of civil society organisations working to support socioeconomic inclusion and empowerment of local communities and marginalised groups in the country spoke on the occasion. The Canadian high commissioner said on this day of Canada’s National Truth and Reconciliation, the dialogue was an opportunity for us to amplify the voices of indigenous and marginalised communities as well as leaders in Pakistan. “Canada is built on the ancestral lands of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples, and as we continue our reconciliation journey we are committed to applying a reconciliation lens across our diplomacy and global advocacy efforts,” she said. “Whether it’s promoting socio-economic inclusion, empowering youth, women, and girls in all their diversity, or supporting climate resilience for those on the frontlines of the climate crisis, we are committed to working with Pakistan to help build a sustainable, resilient, and equitable future.” She said the dialogue, with the participation of Pakistani leaders working to support local communities, highlighted the importance of collective policies, actions, and partnerships to support local communities’ unique needs. “Canada, at home and around the world, is working to advance reconciliation and promote engagement with indigenous peoples, based on recognition of rights, respect, cooperation, and partnership. It involves listening to, learning from, and working in partnership with First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples in Canada, as well as with local communities around the world, to address the unique challenges that these communities face,” she said.
