About this listen

As we move through our cities and suburbs, we’re part of an invisible flow— the design of the urban grid itself.  As we look the future, we have an opportunity to reimagine these environments. How will the remote work revolution affect office spaces and commuting patterns? How can cities mitigate the impacts of climate change?

Join us as we speak with Samuel Assefa, Director of the California Governor’s Office of Planning and Research, an agency that delivers guidance to state partners and local communities, with a focus on land-use and community development, climate resilience, and high-road economic development.
