8th annual "Design For Dignity” Conference
Making It Happen
The focus this year will be “Making It Happen”.
Design for Dignity will serve as a forum to leverage the expertise of architects to achieve cost-containment, neighborhood engagement/ community buy-in, and insight about how to best overcome specific regulatory and procedural hurdles, hardships, and ‘red-tape’.
The overarching theme will center on implementation and execution, with sub-themes of “Citizen Architects”, policy/ advocacy topics, and technical delivery expertise. Design for Dignity will help strengthen and communicate the leadership role of “inclusive housing architects” in realizing solutions to the housing and homelessness crises.
The architecture community is in a strategic place to not only deliver technical solutions to achieve high quality design, reduce costs, and speed construction, but to also share valuable expertise at the front end, contributing to land use policy, research, etc.
