International Development Week in Canada
This year's International Development Week (IDW) ran from February 5-11, 2012 and focused on the empowerment of women and girls. It allowed CCA and others to shine a light on the work Canadians are doing to end global poverty. We asked Canadians to show the world how co-operatives are doing their part through blogs, Twitter, Facebook, and spreading the word about International Dispatch.
