Facilitator Alden Habacon says each evening will be an opportunity for people to enjoy a delicious multi-course ethnic meal while meeting other locals and sharing Coquitlam experiences around the dinner table.
And organizers are not just looking for established movers and shakers, he said. "We want people who are passionate, concerned about the future of Coquitlam and really would like to connect more with those that live in Coquitlam… newcomers, people here for generations I hope we get a good mix," said Habacon, who is also UBC's director of intercultural understanding.
Habacon said participants can expect a terrific meal over several courses with a discussion after each serving based on questions he will present to guide the dialogue.
"For me, the goal is the depth of connections between people," said Habacon, who noted connecting people is even more important today when they are so busy, stressed and tied to their technology. "Although we're more connected today, we fell less connected, so here's our chance to do something quite old-school."
