honor place
grow participation
embody justice
Find out what your community needs
Select sites
Find and compare potential project locations, guided by localized datasets and community input. Use this information to identify and prioritize areas that have faced historical disinvestment or inequities due to past infrastructure projects.
Gather observations
Work inclusively to annotate firsthand accounts of current conditions, community perspectives, and site visits to ground-truth opportunities and needs.
Check understanding
Use shared observations, localized data, and educational resources to strengthen understanding of the unique qualities of local places, cultures, and ecosystems before beginning to design.
