Developed by Aga Khan Foundation Canada, the truck will travel coast-to-coast, featuring powerful photography, film, and audio; one-of-a-kind objects; an interactive world map of Canadian contributions overseas; and a skills quiz for visitors to discover how they can help in the fight against global poverty.
The Together truck is driving change across Canada – and Ottawa is the first stop on the tour.
Together: An exhibition on global development is an interactive, bilingual experience for all ages, highlighting Canadian contributions to improving the lives of people around the world.
Housed in a custom-built truck with 1,000 square feet of exhibition space, Together officially launches in Ottawa on Wednesday, embarking on its two-year journey across the country.
The truck will travel coast-to-coast, featuring powerful photography, film, and audio; one-of-a-kind objects; an interactive world map of Canadian contributions overseas; and a skills quiz for visitors to discover how they can help in the fight against global poverty.
The exhibition was developed by Aga Khan Foundation Canada (AKFC), and features the work of 21 Canadian organizations working to reduce poverty around the world.
“Today’s global development challenges are immense and complex, but there are solutions – many of them thanks to Canada’s leadership and collaboration,” said Khalil Z. Shariff, chief executive officer of AKFC. “Together will spark and inform a conversation about the extraordinary ways in which Canadians are making a difference in the developing world.”
Together officially launches on Wednesday, April 22, 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at the Delegation of the Ismaili Imamat (199 Sussex Drive).
The Honourable Christian Paradis, Minister of International
Development and La Francophonie, will participate in the launch.
