AS/COA presents a Miami launch of the Winter 2014 AQ issue: "Our Cities, Our Future: Making Cities Healthy, Green, and Sustainable."
Overview
AS/COA and YPA Miami present the launch of the Winter 2014 issue of Americas Quarterly entitled “Our Cities, Our Future: Making Cities Healthy, Green, and Sustainable.” With over 80 percent of the population living in cities, the hemisphere is facing the challenges of rapid urbanization, pollution, and climate change. What are our cities doing to adapt to climate change, improve livability, and become more socially integrated?
