Building Equitable Cities Speaker Series

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has amplified existing socioeconomic inequities. Nowhere has this been clearer than in our cities.

Throughout 2022, we, along our community partners, will host quarterly talks related to addressing inequities and disrupting systemic bias in the establishment and development of cities, including how we can build back differently as we recover from the COVID-19 pandemic.

This speaker series is a part of our ongoing work to share diverse perspectives on issues of equity, inclusion and development. This is also an opportunity for imagining new social possibilities and new ways of thinking through the old challenges of access, sustainability and social justice.

We will share the topics for future sessions closer to the session dates. We also share regular content on this page related to the equity and city-building. To get updates on this speaker series, click the “Subscribe” button.
