The Canadian Somali Congress (CSC) is a Somali community organization based in Toronto, Canada.[1]
Overview[edit]
Lawyer Ahmed Hussen serves as the CSC's national President.[2][3]
The body works closely with national and regional authorities to strengthen civic relations.[1] Among other initiatives, the Canadian Somali Congress has formed a partnership with the Canadian International Peace Project and Canadian Jewish Congress to establish the Canadian Somali-Jewish Mentorship Project, the first national mentoring and development project between a sizable Muslim community and the Jewish community.[2][4]
