About this app
The O-Canada App is the United Nations Migration Agency’s digital tool for refugees selected for resettlement to Canada. It aims to empower refugees to transition and become active members of Canadian society.
Since 1998, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) has been providing pre-departure orientation to selected refugees resettling to Canada through the Canadian Orientation Abroad (COA) programme. This tool will benefit refugees in circumstances where IOM is not able to provide in-person COA and will complement in-person COA.
Reinforcing IOM’s cross-cutting theme of promoting safe and informed migration, the app provides relevant, accurate and targeted information on with the objective of increasing the integration outcomes of refugees once in Canada.
The app is currently available in English and will later be available in other languages including French, Spanish, Arabic, Dari, Kiswahili, Somali, and Tigrinya.
When a user downloads the app, their privacy is ensured as the only information collected is a username.
The O-Canada App, which can be accessed offline, can be downloaded for free.
Funded by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada.
