UdemyThe second course in the Urban Innovation series shifts focus from general sustainability to social equity specifically, looking at how cities are responding to the challenges of fair, inclusive urban development. Rather than abstract policy discussion, the material is drawn from case studies, seminars, and conference sessions held at the Meeting of the Minds international summit, presented by topic experts with accompanying slides and resources.
The course is self-paced with no required commitment: students can move through as many or as few lectures as they like, and optional multiple-choice quizzes are available for those wanting to test their understanding or earn a completion certificate.
Anyone interested in urban planning, sustainability, or social equity who wants real examples rather than theory alone.
Urban Innovation: Sustainability and Technology Solutions
Course 2: Urban Social Equity
This course is a second introduction to various innovators and initiatives at the bleeding edge of urban sustainability and connected technology. It is a look at the challenges and practical responses related to urban sustainability through the theme of urban social equity. For those interested, a separate course in this series focuses on real world examples within two other key urban innovation themes: smart cities and transportation.
Course material is based on case studies, seminars, and conference sessions from the Meeting of the Minds international network and annual summit. Lectures are presented by topic experts; presentation slides and other helpful resources are included where applicable.
Optional multiple choice quiz questions follow the lectures for those students wishing to test their new knowledge or obtain a course completion certificate. No commitment is required to do the entire course. Students can proceed at their own pace and may view as many - or as few - of the lectures as they choose.
"Urban Innovation: Sustainability and Technology Solutions – Part 2" was created by Christina Olsen for Meeting of the Minds.
