Statement by the Prime Minister of Canada on International Development Week 2016

(firmenpresse) - OTTAWA, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 02/08/16 -- Prime Minister's Office

The Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, issued the following statement today to mark International Development Week 2016:

"As Canadians, we are defined by our compassion, our generosity, and our ingenuity. Nowhere are these qualities more evident than in our international development workers and volunteers. These Canadians work tirelessly at home - and around the world - to reduce poverty and inequality.

"Moving forward, the Government of Canada will be refocusing development assistance on helping the world's poorest and most vulnerable. Our efforts will be guided by the principles of innovation and effectiveness, as we strive to make Canada's approach to development something that we can all be proud of.

"During International Development Week, I encourage all Canadians to learn - and draw inspiration from - those who do so much to make our world a safer and more compassionate place to live."
