Design is a practice of possibility. Across the GSD and the Loeb community, fellows, faculty, and students are applying design intelligence to the urgent questions of governing. Projects led by Toni L. Griffin ’98 and Maurice Cox ’05 build civic capacity and connect mayors, city leaders, and communities with tools to lead change grounded in trust and shared purpose. With philanthropic support, Griffin’s Just City Lab and Mayoral Fellowship and Cox’s ReBuild Initiative show how design can advance justice and opportunity, how vision becomes strategy and strategy becomes action. Moderated by Virginia Prescott ’02, this conversation draws on real-world cases where civic leaders turn manifestos into policy and neighborhoods into engines of transformation. Together, we explore how design and governance work hand in hand to shape more just and resilient cities, with energy, realism, and the conviction that the future is already under construction.
Reception will follow from 7:30–9:00 PM in Stubbins, 112
