The Pritzker Forum on Global Cities is sponsoring this virtual event. Here is a link to the event and an excerpt from their website: https://www.globalcitiesforum.org/equity. “As the COVID-19 pandemic sheds light on urban inequalities, what does equitable urban life look like? What kinds of strategies, programs, and movements create more equitable cities? In the past, we have discussed inclusive urban economic frameworks, creating better cities for all, and confronting systemic racism and inequity. We will continue to explore the relationship between inequality and urban space, equity in crisis response, and global approaches to pursuing equity.” Speakers for the event include Pete Buttigieg, US Secretary of Transportation; LaToya Cantrell, Mayor, New Orleans; Ivo Daalder, President, Chicago Council of Global Affairs; Dr. Anthony Fauci, Director, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases; Eric Garcetti, Mayor, Los Angeles; Sadiq Khan, Mayor, London; and mayors from cities around the world.
