The goal is to establish a design and policy agenda for Boston and the New England region that benefits from best practices elsewhere and sets new standards for ensuring the environmental, economic and social sustainability of the city in a global economy. Speakers include architects, engineers, urban and regional planners, political leaders and specialists in urban policy, public health, new technologies and transportation. The expected audience reflects an equally wide range of interests whose common point of enquiry is the future design and development of the 'green city'. <a href="http://www.architects.org/massimpact/index.html">More information</a>.</div>Pablo C.
