The AMBM Group: Building a strong consortium to serve Manitoba’s bilingual municipalities and their communities
The AMBM Group focuses on the added value that French brings to bilingualism through a consortium driven by Manitoba’s bilingual municipal leadership.
With a unique structure that enjoys an enviable reputation across Canada, the AMBM Group is a true powerhouse, bringing together three organizations with complementary aims: the Association of Manitoba Bilingual Municipalities (AMBM), the Economic Development Council for Manitoba Bilingual Municipalities (CDEM), and Eco-West Canada (EWC).
In Review: 2019-2020
In 2019-2020, a number of projects and initiatives helped consolidate the AMBM Group’s progress and action-driven leadership while supporting its growth for the benefit of bilingual municipalities and their communities.
At the virtual AGM, we will review the AMBM Group’s activities over the past year.
