In a post-pandemic context, and consistent with the objectives of its new strategic plan, the MPA recently updated its community investment policy. With a view to forging lasting partnerships with local organizations, increasing its positive social impact and acting as a responsible corporate citizen, several adjustments have been made, including:
- Priority now focuses on the following communities or groups of citizens: youth, people living in poverty or experiencing homelessness, First Nations partners and communities near the Port facilities in Montreal the Contrecoeur sector.
- The three target sectors are now: the socio-economic development of Montreal, the Contrecœur region and First Nations; support for youth training and development; and the fight against climate change.
- To reflect these changes, the name of the policy has been updated from Community Investment Policy to Community Involvement Policy.
