This session will explore how redevelopment efforts can bridge these divides by combining technology, data, inclusive planning and cultural integrity. It will explore how community-centered processes, evidence-based policy, and urban sensing technologies can guide more equitable investments, improve services, and strengthen neighborhood resilience.
