2018 Harmony Brunch

News about our 21st Annual Event is available at the above link!

Each year CMEF presents Harmony Brunch to commemorate the
International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination.

The Harmony Brunch is an event anticipated by members of many cultural and religious communities in and around Edmonton. It brings together a rich cross-section of community leaders to explore issues focused on strengthening Canada’s multicultural fabric. It also encourages everyone to renew their commitment to ending racial discrimination in their personal and professional lives.

On behalf of the Canadian Multicultural Education Foundation (CMEF), we would like to invite you to attend the 21th Annual Harmony Brunch. Over 260 people representing all levels of provincial government, religious, cultural and Aboriginal groups, academics, businesses, youth and the media attended the event last year.
