In a new op-ed published in @globeandmail, our Research and Advocacy Officer Dean Dettloff makes the case for why Taybeh’s future matters to us all and why the fate of Palestine is a question of global conscience.

An olive tree is more than a tree. In Taybeh, #Palestine, it represents generations of history, identity and the determination to remain on ancestral land.
Read Fr. Bashar Fawadleh’s urgent appeal for solidarity. 🇵🇸

This fall, DPCC members in Thunder Bay came together to learn, discuss, and reflect on the impact of cuts to international aid and what they mean for communities in the Global South.

Rest in peace, Vancol
It is with deep sadness that we learned of the tragic murder of Joseph Willard Vancol, director of the Ti-Boukan FM community radio station and coordinator of the @itecaayiti Training Centre in Petit Boucan, Gressier, Haiti.
We call for a full investigation into this murder and for justice to be served for Joseph Willard Vancol. In the face of the violence plaguing Haitian society, protecting those who serve their communities is more necessary than ever.
