Urban Design Forum’s 2021-2022 Streets Ahead Climate Working Group / September 21, 2021

Joining nearly 50 fellows to advance proposals for a more vibrant equitable streetscape, Jieun Yang participates in the Urban Design Forum’s 2021-2022 Streets Ahead program in the Climate Working Group. Streets Ahead is a year-long inquiry into the future of city streets, focusing on the five key lenses: Commerce, Care, Climate, Culture, and Continuity. The program aims to imagine how streets can be reclaimed to advance economic recovery, environmental justice, and racial equity. In addition, the Climate Working Group will specifically investigate how we can retool street design to confront the impacts of the climate crisis.
