<p>Greening our Economy: Perspectives on Equitable and Innovative Urban Development with Channon Lemon, Monte Hillemen, and Natalie Self.<br />
Our communities are constantly evolving and the way they are designed and developed plots the course for the health, sustainability, resiliency, and equitable access of those the community serves. Large scale projects not only provide an opportunity for economic growth and spark excitement but can have several ripple effects that spinoff smaller projects and the potential to collectively change the community moving forward. This session will bring together three leaders to share their perspectives on how developments can change the course of the communities they are designed within. We will explore how engaging stakeholders through the process can lead to positive impact, discuss the hard questions and learn how these leaders are addressing gentrification, green and healthy job creation and how the introduction of new community developments can underpin the creation of a local green economy.</p>
