The pandemic has also highlighted stark inequalities – black, indigenous, and other people of color (BIPOC) communities have been disproportionately impacted in terms of mortality, illness and unemployment. Providing access to safe and affordable housing, healthcare and health-promoting resources has never been more critical for these communities. Greenhouse gas emissions resulting from human activity, including transportation, building construction, and operation, contribute to climate change, and the destruction of ecosystems. Designs should not only improve individual and community health, but also help preserve planetary health. Inclusive of sustainability, cities should help nurture diverse environments, cultures, and economies locally and globally. Design should also support resiliency so communities can anticipate and recover from the unknown challenges that lie ahead. This is needed now more than ever before.. [Download the EDRA53](/resource/resmgr/edra53/cfp_and_paper_templates/edra53_cfp_final.pdf) **[Call for Proposals](/resource/resmgr/edra53/cfp_and_paper_templates/edra53_cfp_final.pdf).** **Questions about EDRA53 Greenville?
