welcome to M.I.C.R.O!
Movement for the Inclusion of Racialized Communities of Ontario
The mission of MICRO, the Movement for the Inclusion of Racialized Communities of Ontario is to encourage people of African descend to intentionally reconnect with what remains of their culture, to embrace it in order to strengthen their cultural identity and heritage, to better anchor themselves in their environment and respond to the challenges of the world, for better living together in Canada.
UBUNTU is the only value we stand for. (I am because we are)
This concept encompasses the notions of truth, integrity, humanity, trust, respect, solidarity, sharing, trust, community, which we wish to bring back to the heart of everything we do.
We will be at TIFF on September 10, 2024
M.I.C.R.O will have the privilege of presenting the documentary "Africa: Cradle of Humanity and Modern Civilizations" at the Toronto Film Festival (TIFF 2024).
The film highlights Africa's historical and cultural contributions, an aspect often overlooked in traditional narratives.
M.I.C.R.O's presentation of this film aligns perfectly with the organization's mission to promote the inclusion and recognition of racialized communities, particularly those of African descent.

what do we do ?
Far from revenge and victimhood speeches, we feed on positive images in order to develop a positive cultural identity that encourages success. We work to promote Afro-optimism through history, storytelling, reading, games, cultural and artistic activities; these are all actions that create a powerful disposition for a positive impact on the overall quality of life of our communities, in terms of mental and physical health, socially and economically.
