Who We Are
Founded in 1945 as the Unitarian Service Committee of Canada, USC is a voluntary organization working to promote strong, healthy, and just communities in developing countries.
We work with partner organizations in Africa, Asia, and Latin America to strengthen community livelihoods, promote food security, and support peoples’ actions for social justice and equality. In Canada, we build awareness and support for international social change through public education and policy dialogue.
MISSION STATEMENTUSC Canada promotes vibrant family farms, strong rural communities, and healthy ecosystems around the world. With engaged Canadians and partners in Africa, Asia, and Latin America, we support programs, training, and policies that strengthen biodiversity, food sovereignty, and the rights of those at the heart of resilient food systems - women, indigenous peoples, and small-scale farmers. |
