DIA, the Department of Imaginary Affairs, is dedicated to imagining equitable futures and redefining what it means to be Canadian, especially for newcomers and young people. They believe in amplifying their voices, perspectives, and stories to shape alternative and fairer visions of the country. At DIA, stories serve as a tool to challenge assumptions, foster creativity, and empower citizen voices.

Their current projects include The Stories of Us, which helps newcomers learn English through their own stories, and Future Happens Here, an analog facilitation toolkit for creating new futures. DIA also offers The Storybook Project, where you can dive into a giant storybook filled with captivating narratives, and Project Potato, which helps reimagine communities. Additionally, they capture how care is evolving through Care | Past, Present, Future.
