Urban Sustainability Symposium

5/26/2014

0 Comments

 
I teach the International Urbanization Seminar with Deland Chan of Urban Studies at Stanford. We will be hosting a design showcase highlighting urban sustainability projects from six multinational teams, composed of students from Stanford and Tsinghua University. The students will present their collaborations on promoting walkable cities, disseminating air pollution data, facilitating energy-efficient green trucking practices, and re-imagining the youth hostel experience. In addition to finding out about some great projects, it's an opportunity to hear from those closest to the service-learning process: the students themselves.

Check out more details on the Symposium page of the International Urbanization website.

Aside from the live walk-through exhibit and the design showcase, we are also hosting a faculty roundtable discussion on cross-cultural collaborations in the morning: there have been many lessons learned through our collaboration with Tsinghua University.

In the afternoon, we are hosting a second small-group discussion (in collaboration with our friend Suzanne, who is a Director of Community-Engaged Learning at Stanford) on service-learning.

UPDATE: Our event is now featured on the events.stanford.edu page!
