CALL FOR PAPERS and DESIGN AWARDS COMPETITION Deadline October 15, 2018 56th International Making Cities Livable Conference on A Healthy City for ALL Portland, OR, June 17-21, 2019<\/p>\n

We rejoice that many cities now are becoming more healthy, by making great improvements in sociable, walkable, and bike-friendly streets, public transit, fine-grained mixed use, high density, human scale housing, and access to community places, nature and healthy food. At this conference we are looking to present the best models around the world in presentations and in the design competition.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0BIG\u00a0challenge is that these goals are not reaching the population groups most in need.\u00a0The poorest neighborhoods suffer the greatest health problems. Moreover, many cities face an unprecedented\u00a0housing affordability\u00a0crisis, gentrification, and increasing homelessness.\u00a0We especially want to hear from you – in presentations and in the design competition – if you are introducing innovative strategies to improve poor neighborhoods!<\/p>\n

\nThose wishing to give a presentation should submit a 250-word abstract for consideration before October 15, 2018. Please submit online, following the Call for Papers Guidelines on the web at:\u00a0http:\/\/www.livablecities.org\/conferences\/56th-conference-portland\/call-papers<\/a>
