15-Minute Cities Workshop

15-minute cities enable residents to access most daily amenities within a 15-minute walk or bicycle ride. 15-minute cities are an increasingly popular concept to enhance sustainability and well-being. However, 15-minute cities require coordination of land use policies, transportation systems, pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, economic development, equitable access, and social infrastructure.

The objectives of the 15-minute cities workshop include:

• Identify key challenges and unanswered questions regarding 15-minute cities
• Connect researchers from multiple disciplines with expertise related to 15-minute cities (e.g., urban planning, transportation, analytics, economic development, engineering, health and well-being, social justice and equity, law)
• Create interdisciplinary working groups to collaborate on research projects or grant opportunities related to 15-minute cities

Hosted by the Tippie College of Business Social Impact Community and the School of Planning and Public Affairs.
