About Médiamosaïque
Since 2006, this Diversity Press Agency has published online and organized the “Diversity Summit”, a series of consultations with different levels of government and thousands of people between 2011 and 2013 to find ways to include Diversity issues and voices in the media. Several initiatives such as the “Diversity TOP 20”, “Diversity Month”, the “MosaïCocktails” and the “MosaïZOOM”, have emerged from this study, with the aim of enabling Canadians to better connect with diversity and vice versa.
