How has the global COVID-19 pandemic shaped the field of urban planning? In the second season of Planning Ideas that Matter (PITM), hosts Tiffany Ferguson (MCP '18) and Samra Lakew (MCP '20) explore this question with members of the Department of Urban Studies and Planning (DUSP) faculty as well as MIT alumnae/i.
In the first episode of Season 2, Tiffany and Samra discuss how governance structures and planners are adapting to the disruptions caused by the 2020 pandemic. Guests included DUSP faculty members Karilyn Crockett and Delia Wendel.
PITM is produced by DUSP and Dave Lishansky of David Benjamin Sound through the generous support from Bemis Funding and Dean of the MIT School of Architecture and Planning, Hashim Sarkis.
