Strengthening Social Infrastructure and Designing for Connection

In today’s society where the presence of third places is steadily declining, the importance of designing for connection is critical. Strengthening social infrastructure begins with creating the conditions for people to connect. Strong communities are built when people have places to gather, opportunities to engage, and systems that support meaningful human connection. In this conversation, our Ambassadors Cynthia Cushing and Michael Kirsch share how they are investing in and advocating for programs, policies, and physical spaces that bring people together and foster connection.
