Part one of a two-part event: The Built Environment of our Cities and Communities and Social Justice in America. Part of the ISR 2022 Symposium in honor of the life and work of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

For information on part two, a panel discussion, please see https://events.umich.edu/event/90200

Synopsis: Over half the world's population now lives in an urban area, and 75% will call a city home by 2050. But while some cities are experiencing explosive growth, others are shrinking. The challenges of balancing housing, mobility, public space, civic engagement, economic development, and environmental policy are fast becoming universal concerns. Yet much of the dialogue on these issues is disconnected from the public domain. By exploring a diverse range of urban design projects around the world, URBANIZED frames a global discussion on the future of cities.
