Export to calendar

In his lecture, professor Agyeman will outline the concept of just sustainabilities as a response to the ‘equity deficit’ of much sustainability thinking and practice. He will explore his contention that who can belong in our cities will ultimately determine what our cities can become, and will illustrate his ideas with examples from urban planning, and design, cycling and the ‘Minneapolis Paradox’.

Julian Agyeman is Professor of Urban and Environmental Policy and Planning at Tufts University. He is the originator of the increasingly influential concept of just sustainabilities - the intentional integration of social justice and environmental sustainability.
