About this Event
You are cordially invited to a vital gathering of peers invested in the well-being of Toronto. This event, "Let's Talk About Our City: Conversation Tables," is a strategic space for connection, reflection, and collaboration. Convened by the Our City Toronto initiative, this gathering is an extension of our mission to inspire and equip urban ministry practitioners for effective service.ยน,ยฒ
Our premise is simple: true collaboration is born from authentic dialogue. We will break bread together over a complimentary lunch, hear data-driven presentations, and engage in facilitated "Conversation Tables" to discuss the pressing issues facing our city. In a metropolis as large as Toronto, working in isolation is a luxury we cannot afford. This is a foundational step toward building the meaningful relationships and coalitions necessary to serve our city together.
