The Conversation Continues with IIDA SoCal EDI
Designing for Sustainable Equity
I’m excited to announce our next episode, which will delve into the pillars of sustainability, specifically examining how irresponsible overproduction, manufacturing, and development practices are impacting many neighborhoods. Our focus is on disadvantaged communities, where these practices have resulted in adverse effects on health, cultural identity, and social standing.
We will:
- Explore the key pillars of sustainability
- Highlight the challenges faced by communities impacted by unsustainable practices
- Discuss the interplay between environmental, social, and economic factors
This discussion will set the stage for a more in-depth exploration during our upcoming panel discussion on August 13, 2025, in Los Angeles, California. We're eager to create a collaborative environment for exchanging ideas and identifying actionable solutions to help these communities thrive.
