How might we consider a new approach to urban design in the wake of Covid-19? Instead of a landscape constructed for the movement and storage of automobiles, what if we re-envisioned our public spaces for the enjoyment of people? In this session, we will discuss how to collectively reimagine and reinvent public spaces as the heart of every community.
In this Ignite Masterclass filmed on November 5, 2020, Erin Boyd will draw on her experience at Culdesac – the first car-free neighborhood built from scratch in the U.S. – and as the co-founder of Ashoka U – a global network for social entrepreneurship in higher education – to consider the role of physical, cultural, and social identities that define a place and support its ongoing evolution.
