Cannvas MedTech To Join Global Cannabis Partnership As Member Organization

“The Global Cannabis Partnership has done an admirable job setting forth a vision to establish standards for informed cannabis usage and social responsibility across the cannabis industry, and we are pleased to join their esteemed network of agencies and organizations dedicated to elevating the sector’s commitment to CSR,” said Daniel Davidzon, Director of Strategy and Education, Cannvas MedTech Inc. “We look forward to working with the Global Cannabis Partnership to help Canadians curious about cannabis determine whether it’s beneficial to their lifestyle and learn more about its potential health benefits through Cannvas.Me, our free and unbiased evidence-backed cannabis education platform.”

Established in 2018, the Global Cannabis Partnership aims to develop an international initiative for the cannabis sector focused on establishing worldwide corporate social responsibility standards related to the production, marketing, public education, sale, after-sales service and informed consumption of legal adult-use recreational cannabis.

The GCP’s main objectives are to build credibility for government agencies, industry and partners through responsible practices, align and leverage common principles and practices across diverse jurisdictions, and help partners mitigate negative impacts and leverage best practices from within and outside the industry to protect and enhance social licence to operate, with a view to minimizing harm.

“We are excited to join the Global Cannabis Partnership and work with leading Canadian brands and respected government, financial and law institutions to help shape a more responsible cannabis landscape for active and potential consumers,” said Shawn Moniz, Chief Executive Officer, Cannvas MedTech Inc. “We expect to play a major role within the GCP to help achieve our common goal of educating the public on all aspects of cannabis consumption and look forward to exploring other areas in which Cannvas can offer specialized support.”

Cannvas hopes to leverage the content and resources available through Cannvas.Me, its free and unbiased digital cannabis education platform, to help guide the Global Cannabis Partnership’s public education initiative to help consumers make informed decisions. Operating independent of any licensed producers or clinics and working with its own Medical Advisory Board and Educational Advisory Panel, Cannvas.Me provides a safe space for cannabis education with no pressure to purchase or consume.
