The mission of the GCP is to advance global understanding of pluralism as an ethic of respect that values diversity as a public good and seeks to enable citizens to realize their full potential. To this end, through applied research and education, dialogue and exchange, the GCP will work with partners worldwide to generate, collate, and share knowledge and know-how about pluralism as a rich asset for progress and development, and about the structures, mechanisms, and relationships that build and sustain pluralist societies.
Global Centre for Pluralism – phase 1 work to include new public space facing Sussex Drive (to be completed in time for Canada’s 150th birthday in 2017).
