CIHS thanks its corporate members - the Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21, IRCC and P2P - for their significant support as well as its life and annual members. All these contributions allow us to pursue our objectives and activities.

The Society has carried out significant research and communication on the 1975-1980 movement to Canada of Indochinese refugees. We are especially focussed on Hearts of Freedom.
