The Multicultural Association of Nova Scotia (MANS) is hosting Creating Bridges:

Creating Bridges addresses the themes of multiculturalism and diversity within a
range of communities and against the backdrop of the 21st century. How can we
create the bridges that close the distance between us? What tools do we need,
and how can we ensure that our journey is a safe one?
