Just Sustainabilites in Policy, Planning and Practice
Julian Agyeman
Professor of Urban and Environmental Policy and Planning at Tufts University, Boston
Julian 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. He will illustrate his ideas with examples from urban planning and design, food justice and the ‘Minneapolis Paradox’.
Julian is a Professor of Urban and Environmental Policy and Planning at Tufts University, Boston. He is the originator of the increasingly influential concept of just sustainabilities, the intentional integration of social justice and environmental sustainability.
