COVID-19 turned city streets into pop-up restaurants. What if we didn’t go back? 🤔
@ewawestermark of @citiesforpeople asks why we accept being crowded out by cars on city streets. Ewa's colleague, @BlaineMerker, says we need to build cities around human connection.

Very happy to share our thoughts on how we can REDUCE exposure to air pollution and INVITE people to places with better air quality - focusing on our most important people - small children!

Extremely happy with the outcome of the second @deepcutsindeed. @nancybaym, @ewawestermark & @MariaBergius nailed it and I think not using slides in a chapel was a good decision. All 3 talks are now available with a contextualizing text by yours truly -> medium.com/deep-cuts-stories…

80% of our cities' open spaces are streets. If #urbanplanning is to contribute to healthier lifestyles, the rules of the street need to change. Is your city taking action to make cities healthier? Tell us how!
