Conversation: Physical Space and Community Resilience

Members of Wisconsin Partners organizations are invited to weigh in at the second conversation in our 2023 series on Connection. Through this series, we hope to explore the value of all kinds of human connection - how do we address isolation and polarization? How can we amplify voices of lived experience, and what are the best strategies for effective, meaningful community engagement? What does Connection have to do with the workplace, with intergenerational learning, or with our neighbors?

Anne Katz, Executive Director of Create Wisconsin, and Darrin Wasniewski, Associate State Director of AARP Wisconsin, will co-host a conversation on Physical Space and Community Resilience - and we want to hear from you, too. This will be an interactive discussion, with voices from a range of sectors, perspectives, and communities.

How do our physical spaces impact the tangible and intangible ways we connect and interact with each other – and as a result, how do they impact our resilience, adaptability, and potential as a community? How do we make changes in our physical spaces - offices, neighborhoods, communities, regions - to grow and strengthen capacity for people-centered connection and collaboration?
