Forum Flashtalks

Bold Plans for Urban Equity

How can visionary thinking make our cities fairer and more livable for all? Bold solutions can come from anywhere: corporate leaders, urban planners, community activists, scholars, or policymakers.

At past Forum's we've invited applicants to prepare a 5-7 minute video of a “TED-style” flashtalk describing how a big, bold, and transformative idea can help create a more equitable city. Topical areas of focus have included:

- Public space and social inclusion
- Affordable housing and gentrification
- Mobility and accessibility
- Immigration and integration
- Education and jobs
- Policing and community engagement
