Atlanta: Can Smart, Connected Communities Also Advance Equity? Three Perspectives from Research, Planning, and Design

2017-06-06 , DiSalvo, Carl , Garrett, Cicely , Woo, Jesse

As we plan, design, engineer, and build smart and connected communities, equity is often overlooked—displaced by our focus on technology. But if we do not address equity from the beginning, we run the risk of exacerbating existing conditions of injustice. This panel will explore diverse approaches to addressing equity in research, planning, and design for smart and connected communities, to spark conversation on strategies and tactics appropriate for both public sector and academic projects.

Atlanta: Whose Data Is It Anyway?: Empowerment and Ownership of Community Research

2017-06-06 , Akintobi, Tabia Henry , Le Dantec, Christopher A. , Nkromo, Kwabena , Ross, Terry , Wallace, Jamie

Neighborhoods and communities of all types are often the subject of data monitoring and research by organizations such as police departments, public health agencies, and universities. Too often citizens and residents are not either aware of the information that is being collected about their lives, or they don't adequately understand its implications and almost never are in control of the data that may impact their families and neighbors. Our panelists will discuss how Participatory Action Research, open systems data sharing, and quality community engagement can make a huge difference in whether a community is empowered or undermined by data.
