Equity has been around since the sustainability movement, as one of the three Es, but remains ill-defined and is often poorly executed. This panel explores a framework that addresses process to product to elevate our understanding of equity, how to design for it, and how to get paid for it.

Learning Objectives:

• Develop a framework for defining equity on a project-by-project basis
• Learn how to plan for an equitable project and discover new tools to engage the community
• Consider and critique landscape architecture’s cultural relevance
• Learn from the panelists own project successes and lessons learned
