20th Anniversary — Mobilizing the Community Development and Design Field to Advance Equity : vimarsana.com

In order to develop a more equitable future, practitioners must plan for it now. Urban planning has historically been an exclusive space — leaving out the voices of residents of color and poor people. With new leadership in many of the field-defining associations, leaders of color are supporting a diversity of talent and changing the ways that city landscapes — and the residents who reside in them — are being planned for.  They’re bringing intention and an eye toward equity to their work — whether that looks like urging the current decision makers to apply the same lens or creating opportunities or implementing strategies to increase the number of planners and designers of color in the field.  During this conversation with leaders from professional organizations, speakers will discuss the work they’re doing and seeing to advance equity across the country. They’ll also share their visions for the future of their organizations and cities.  Throughout the 20th Anniversary Solutions of the Year festival, you will hear from dozens of speakers who are making change happen around issues such as reparations, community development, public health and more. Festival programming explores the solutions that we want to see spread from one city to the next. Anyone working for greater justice and equity in cities will be able to take inspiration from this festival into 2024. Purchase a single ticket now to all of the events for just $50, or pay what you wish by registering for each event individually. Everyone who donates will receive a copy of our annual Solutions of the Year special issue magazine.
