Design Conversations for Community Engagement
Design with Dialogue (DwD) is an open Toronto-based community of practice.
We gather for monthly dialogue workshops to share learning to co-educate and develop competency in community design practices. DwD has the ultimate purpose of facilitating change and meaningful action in our organizations, communities, collaborative projects and as individuals. We learn and play together through participatory design, strategic dialogue, creative arts and emerging facilitation methods.
DwD is held 6-9pm on the second Wednesday of every month at OCAD University 100 McCaul St. south of Dundas St. in Toronto). For event registration, visit our Eventbrite website.

Designing a ‘Whealthy’ Life
How can I gain confidence that the choices I make will allow me to thrive? What implications do my choices have for myself and my community?
In October’s DwD, Eric Rosenberg shared how concepts from financial asset management might craft a broader ‘human portfolio’. We investigated the principles and practices of ‘value investing’ and its connections to wealth and well-being. Participants examined their inventory of existing prosperity tools recognize ‘expenditures’ for which they’re taking responsibility, and began creating a ‘choice architecture’ designed to realize a Life Well Spent.
About the host
Eric Rosenberg is a nature-inspired city guy with strong curiosities and big talent for turning what he learns and how he sees it into forms and content that engage us. He has a post-industrial sensibility, meaning his inclinations are toward a small-scale, grassroots way of life, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Eric has degrees in finance, fine art, and education, which feed his passion to voice and gather people around the idea of developing their own human portfolio that serves as a foundation from which they design a life of their own choosing – a life well spent.
