Ottawa, 26 May 2015 — Mawlana Hazar Imam travelled to the Canadian capital today to attend meetings and receive updates on Aga Khan Development Network activities in the country.
While in Ottawa, Mawlana Hazar Imam met with Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper to discuss progress on joint initiatives between the Ismaili Imamat and the Government of Canada, including continuing efforts to improve maternal, newborn and child health in the developing world.
