The Halifax Declaration of Principles and Priorities was
adopted on August 10th 2001 by approximately 200 local, national,
and international participants at an International Symposium in
Halifax, Nova Scotia, “the cradle of Canada’s indigenous
Black Community”, under the theme Racism and the Black World
Response. This International Symposium, convened under the auspices
of the James Robinson Johnston Chair in Black Canadian Studies
at Dalhousie University, commemorated the United Nations 3rd Decade
Against Racism, and served as a prelude to the UN 3rd World Conference
Against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related
Intolerance (WCAR), scheduled for Durban, South Africa, in August
2001.
