We discussed the Strategic Plan questions at the Manitoba Regional meeting in Winnipeg . The consensus of the meeting was that Development and Peace continues to advocate for the poor in the Global South and that we do not give up our autonomy. We must follow our mission statement supporting our partners in the third World in the pursuit of alternatives to unjust social, political and economic structures. We must also educate the Canadians about the causes of impoverishment of peoples and mobilize actions for change.

Quelques points à considérer pour l'assemblée d'orientation de juin 2010
> le trafic humain [l'exploitation de la femme, en particulier] liée aux thèmes de la pauvreté et de l'environnement. Il y a un lien certain et souvent assez étroit entre ces trois composantes.
> le thème de l'environnement en est un auquel la jeunesse - et de plus en plus d'aîné(e)s sont de plus en plus sensibles. Ce thème nous a paru une bonne porte d'entrée pour rapprocher les gens des autres causes de la pauvreté.
> le problème de la faim est exacerbé du fait que de grandes surfaces des pays du Sud sont utilisées pour la culture des agro-carburants. Ce qui fait que la terre est employée pour nourrir les voitures et affamer de plus en plus de personnes.
