Triple-Bottom Line Insights: Case Studies in Equitable Development
Category
Placemaking
How can we gauge the social impact of new developments? Which metrics should be used to maximize community impact? Quantifying the impact of a place, development, or project helps to make more equitable and informed decisions about shaping places. It can also support the case for various funding and financing tools, from private environmental, social, and governance (ESG) funds to federal grant programs. This session will explore cross-sector case studies to show innovative methods for measuring social, economic, and equity impacts—beyond mere job creation—that can guide placemaking and development and lead to targeted funding and financing.
