“I share this nomination with the many partners of La Bo\u00eete who have supported our initiatives from the very beginning. I share it with those who have believed<\/a> in our mission and given their time to ensure that we can achieve our goals, and it is through their support that we are able to make a difference on a small or large scale and contribute to the building of a more inclusive society that respects cultural diversity. We are deeply grateful to them and will continue to work with them to strengthen our mission<\/em>,” said Nathalie L\u00e9vesque, Executive Director of La Bo\u00eete interculturelle.
