Our Partners

The Indigenous Orientation Toolkit Project is created in partnership with organizations in Manitoba dedicated to Reconciliation and Relationship-Building between Indigenous Communities, Newcomer Communities, and Canada as a whole. Each partner organization plays a vital role in the development of the project.

Immigration Partnership Winnipeg (IPW) helps create a community that has a strong desire and capacity to receive newcomers and make them feel at home.

IPW is a Local Immigration Partnership (LIP). LIPs are multi-sectoral collectives that bring a new form of collaboration, at the community-level, to newcomer settlement and integration. They are designed to establish, facilitate and implement a community-wide strategy for improving the settlement and integration of immigrants.

The Manitoba Association of Newcomer Serving Organizations (MANSO) is a not-for-profit association that acts as the umbrella organization for settlement service providers in Manitoba. MANSO was created out of two organizations, the Manitoba Immigrant and Refugee Settlement Sector Association (MIRSSA, established in 2007) and the Manitoba English as an Additional Language Organizations (MEALO, established in 2012).

MANSO is the unified voice of the Manitoba settlement and integration sector and acts to support its members through activities aimed at promoting communication, networking and professional development.
