Diaspora Dialogues (DD) supports emerging writers to turn their craft into a career through mentorship, professional development and opportunities to publish and present their work. Our mentoring programs are the most successful in the country for alumni getting published. More than 750 writers/artists have participated as mentors or mentees, emerging playwrights or dramaturges, commissioned artists or panelists, readers or performers. 450+ new literary works have been created through DD programs, 300 events produced and a live audience well in excess of 150,000 Canadians has attended those events. DD also publishes TOK Magazine, an online platform for fiercely honest, freshly original writing and convenes TOK Symposiums, multi-day events for readers and writers which combine author talks and professional development seminars.

During these strange and challenging times, Diaspora Dialogues continues to support those who create stories we turn to for comfort, solace, and strength — our authors. To do that we need your help.
