BUSSW E&I Speaker Series: Just Sustainabilities in Policy, Planning and Practice

In this BUSSW Equity & Inclusion Speaker Series event, sustainability expert Julian Agyeman will discuss how his increasingly influential concept of just sustainabilities – the intentional integration of social justice and environmental sustainability – responds to the “equity deficit” present in much of the current sustainability thinking and practice. Agymen will explore his contention that the individuals who can belong in our cities ultimately determine what our cities can become, and illustrate his ideas with examples from urban planning and design, food justice, and the ‘Minneapolis Paradox.’
