VOICES: Visibility. Orientation. Identity. Creativity. Environment. Spaces.

This year’s symposium seeks to understand creative approaches to agency within complex social systems. Who can/cannot affect change and why?  What are the current issues facing our communities and cities? How can we be creative and inclusive in our approach? We are interested in how scholars frame these questions in regards to the natural and built environment, community engagement, and civic implications. This symposium invites scholars to present work from a variety of disciplines, perspectives, theoretical frameworks, and methodologies.
