Please join us on September 29th at 3pm in Kingston for our annual Hudson Valley Initiative Meet.
Connect with fellow GSAPP alumni in the Hudson Valley, learn more about the Hudson Valley Initiative and our ongoing work in the region.
The Barn Meet is a knowledge-sharing event convened by the Hudson Valley Initiative and Urban Design Program at Columbia University GSAPP in conjunction with the Fall semester project:
The Climate Crisis: Imagining a Green New Deal in the Hudson Valley
As part of “Public Works”, an initiative by the Buell Center at Columbia University the Fall 2019 urban design studio will address the social, technical, and political contours of the ambitious—but still largely undefined—proposal known as the Green New Deal. Students will exhibit their initial research on the region’s infrastructure to inform an afternoon of conversation and discussion in small working groups.
This workshop will bring together people and organizations at work in the Valley and to ask:
- What are personal experiences and local knowledge that support (or challenge) the research?
- What are ideas you get excited about?
- Where do you have the greatest concerns for implementation?
- How do you imagine a just path to ‘Net Zero’?
We hope you will join us.
