SUMMARY:Love at First Sight
DESCRIPTION:“Love at First Sight” offers an intimate answer—through the eyes of former patients who captured what they missed most.\n\n\n\nIf a photo speaks 1\,000 words\, these speak 1\,001. “Love at First Sight” isn’t a showcase of composition\, light\, or technique. This free exhibition features photos by Seva Canada’s Tanzanian and Nepali eye care patients after their sight was restored with cataract surgery or glasses. Each patient was handed a camera and asked to capture what they missed seeing most. These moving images celebrate universal human values and the simple pleasures of family\, friends\, and the beauty in our daily lives. Prints sold will support life-changing care to underserved communities worldwide. Visitors will view art while contributing to a cause that makes a real difference. \nThese moving images celebrate universal human values and the simple pleasures of family\, friends\, and the beauty in our daily lives. \nProceeds from print sales will go directly toward providing sight-restoring care in underserved communities. \nAttend here!

DESCRIPTION:Sera gratuit et disponible en personne et en ligne.\nL’événement\, organisé conjointement par la Fondation Aga Khan Canada et École d’affaires internationales Norman Paterson\, Université Carleton. \nDans un monde marqué par la montée des conflits\, par la fragilisation des États et par l’apparition de défis humanitaires sans précédent\, le Canada doit repenser sa façon de s’engager à l’échelle mondiale. Comment pouvons-nous nous assurer que notre politique étrangère produit des résultats concrets\, fait progresser la paix et la sécurité et soutient les personnes les plus touchées par les crises? \nLors de cet événement\, nous allons lancer le rapport : Faire bouger les choses : Réinventer l’engagement du Canada en matière de développement et d’aide humanitaire.

Qu’il s’agisse de protéger les civils ou de soutenir l’innovation\, la consolidation de la paix et la croissance inclusive\, le rapport est une feuille de route qui permettra au Canada d’accentuer son impact mondial. \nJoignez-vous aux décideurs\, aux chercheurs et aux praticiens pour explorer les façons dont le Canada peut avoir un impact significatif et durable dans les contextes fragiles et touchés par des conflits – et ce qu’il faudra pour traduire des idées audacieuses en action. \nInscrivez-vous ici. \nL’événement se déroulera en anglais.
