What we offer

We design and facilitate engagement that welcome diverse voices. By offering simultaneous interpretation and conducting outreach in multiple languages, we ensure that newcomers can meaningfully participate in municipal planning processes, policy consultations, or organizational focus groups.
We host small-group, trauma-informed learning circles where participants share lived experiences, analyze systemic issues (e.g., workforce power dynamics, housing barriers), and co-create solutions. These sessions build trust, strengthen social networks, and lay the groundwork for collective action.
We help organizations work with participants to build capacity and encourage them to lead workshops in different urban topics such as tenants’ rights, housing navigation, and workplace safety, building on successful models like our Rent 101 workshop. Peer-led formats ensure cultural relevance and foster deeper engagement.

We support organizations in co-creating participatory storytelling and photography projects. By collaborating with human rights photographers and visual artists, we help transform lived experiences into powerful multimedia content that highlights both vulnerability and strength.
We facilitate participatory art-making experiences that serve as both public engagement and knowledge mobilization. These events spark dialogue around equity, immigrant experiences, and place-based identity, while building community through creative expression.
We offer guidance on curation, venue coordination, and outreach—ensuring your work reaches policymakers, media, and the broader public in impactful ways.

From co-designing research questions to conducting interviews and analyzing findings, we centre the knowledge and leadership of those most affected by systemic barriers in housing, labour, and other importan urban issues.
We offer customized workshops and courses for organizations interested in applying participatory, arts-based, and trauma-informed approaches to research, and engagement.
