In today's environment, change in cities can mean anything from rearranging the benches on the street; to implementing responses to systemic inequities like homelessness or drug abuse; agreeing on an official community plan; or responding to the chaos caused by toxic spills, natural disasters and cultural clashes.

Regardless of the scale of change, cities need a framework large enough to hold an adaptive, responsive spectrum of analysis. This session will present you with an integral, practical model framework for sustaining healthy change in cities.
