Rethinking the Region VI:  Municipal Responsibility in an Age of Urban Inequality

.

As cities throughout our region struggle to lower the opioid death toll, address the housing crisis, and settle often vulnerable newcomers from around the globe, this year’s Rethinking the Region offers a chance to reflect on the questions of whether and how much our municipalities have the responsibility, capacity, and imagination to address urban inequality. It’s also an opportunity to find out about regional realities and responses, learn from each other, and to improve practices.
