Marie Ruemenapp Marie RuemenappAlumni Network
 

America Walks Webinar on Tuesday, June 7, 2022 from 2:00-3:00 ET.

Registration here (gotowebinar.com)

Planners, whether urban, transportation, housing, or environmental, have a tremendous impact on the physical and built environment we live in. How can other agency professionals, elected officials, and community members influence planning processes to get more walkable, accessible, and equitable communities? The Centers for Diseases Control and America Walks asked the American Planning Association to help develop strategies for working with planners to promote physical activity. They came up with fifteen specific short, medium, and long-term approaches to create new everyday destinations or reimagine the existing destinations... Join us to learn more about how to influence the planning process, building cross-sectoral collaborations, and elevating community values in the built environment.

Panelists Sagar Shah, Planning and Community Health Manager, and Jo Peña, Research Associate of the American Planning Association.
