"Just Sustainabilities" in Policy, Planning and Practice
Sustainability, though a widely used word, is often inadequate when applied in practice. Its fullest meaning varies across geographies, ethnicities, cultures, and economic realities. Prof. Julian Agyeman’s pioneering work teases apart such nuances to clarify how we might pursue “just sustainabilities” or more fair and equitable approaches to address uncertain futures. On April 24, 2024, Prof Agyeman will expand on these ideas, working from the big picture down to what professionals and students can do at the local level to positively impact desired outcomes. This lecture is hosted by The University of Washington’s College of Built Environments and Department of Urban Design and Planning (UDP). It is organized by the Department’s Professionals Council’s Planning Lecture Committee. Julian will outline the concept of just sustainabilities as a response to the ‘equity deficit’ of much sustainability thinking and practice. He will explore his contention that who can belong in our cities will ultimately…

Dr. Yvette Pearson: Leading Change
There is a well-known saying, “The only constant in life is change.” Yet, when it comes to higher education, particularly in some areas of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), it is hard to move beyond “the way we’ve always done it.” It seems oxymoronic – disciplines known and respected for creativity, innovation, and discovery are stagnated when it comes to change in how we solve problems and in who gets to engage in problem-solving. Building on her concept of ENGINEERING CH∆NGE® Dr. Pearson will share challenges that come with change and insights on navigating those challenges through intentional, iterative, people-centered strategies.

Join us to learn about Common Power's fieldwork philosophy in action, and how it fosters diverse teams and empowers young leaders to actively engage in politics and hone their skills.
Charles Douglas was an on-and-off volunteer before leaving a 13-year career at Starbucks in marketing and e-commerce to create Common Power as a formal political organization. While at Starbucks, Charles helped found the Black employee affinity group and expand it across the nation, and brings much of that experience to this next phase of Common Power. Now as a family of organizations that interact with politics in different ways, Charles leads the hybrid PAC and 501c4 bodies of work focused on direct election impacts and education as an on-ramp to civic engagement.

Free with registration
The MOHAI Mercantile Literary Series brings you a book signing for Street Trees of Seattle, and a conversation between author Taha Ebrahimi, Susanna Ryan (author of Seattle Walk Report), and Cynthia Brothers (Creator of Vanishing Seattle) about their different methods of documenting a changing city.
Seattle has one of the most diverse collections of street trees in the country. Street Trees of Seattle by Taha Ebrahimi is an unconventional walking guide based on city data going back to 1950 that covers approximately 170,000 street trees. Using data visualization as a starting point, the author takes readers on a tour of existing street trees throughout 33 of Seattle’s neighborhoods and iconic parks through charming illustrations and maps. In the process, she educates on the history of the trees and the city, answering questions like how monkey puzzle trees came to Seattle, and which neighborhood has the highest concentration of cherry street trees.

$20-25
What is it that you simultaneously see and not see in the buildings around you? How does one build in such a way that we can control both temperature and light during different times of the day and seasons of the year? Glass!
Join the Seattle Architecture Foundation for a two-hour walking tour of Seattle’s unique relationship with glass. While modern buildings are often fully wrapped entirely in glass, Seattle’s older buildings have smaller scaled windows as you recede into the history of building design. Learn how architects and developers went from using glass as an opening nestled into a stone wall to today’s modern buildings sheathed in glass. On this tour, you will discover how glass is used from the past to the present as Seattle has grown in the last few decades.
PNW bonus tip! At the end of the walking tour, guests learn how young salmon find their way to the ocean through the innovative use of glass in urban architecture.
