Youth representation within CCR
Resolution number:
5
May 2003
Whereas:
- Young people are under-represented in the CCR;
- There are increasing numbers of separated children and youth coming to Canada;
- In order to remain relevant to immigrants and refugees, the CCR must find ways to increase youth participation;
Therefore be it resolved:
That the CCR actively promote youth participation at all levels of the organization by:
- Having at least one youth workshop organized by youth for youth at CCR consultations;
- Finding ways to increase/encourage youth attendance at consultations;
- Exploring ways of linking and encouraging dialogue amongst youth that are interested in refugee and immigrant issues.
