Engage-Design-Build is an experiential learning program for racialized secondary school youths in the TDSB. The program’s goal is to open pathways for underrepresented youths to a careers in architecture and design by applying technical design skills from their curriculum to a project that engages current events in their school’s neighborhood, i.e. helping youths see design in their daily lives. Engage-Design-Build connects with multiple curriculum streams. Students in the Visual Arts program engage the community partners and make art about these experiences, Design Technology students develop a design scheme for an installation to display these representations on the high school grounds; and Construction Curriculum students build it.
