Necessary to encompass the range of issues involved in the context of the Heartland are diverse leaders for education and outreach. Panelists will present a series of case studies examining multigenerational leadership roles architects have in design and sustainability for positive civic and community change for all people across this region.

Learning Objectives:
  • Identify the value young architects have as leaders in academics and professional practice to promote and foster community change and the skills necessary for leadership
  • Demonstrate the goals of leadership in sustainable design for civic life and professional practice by comparing how architects are taking leadership roles in innovative partnerships to affect and change communities
  • Compare architects' leadership roles to inspire change through outreach and education by assisting people in constructing a vision for their community through exercises to formulate local and regional agendas
