The International Geodesign Collaboration
Changing Geography by Design
Edited by Thomas Fisher, Brian Orland, and Carl Steinitz
The International Geodesign Collaboration (IGC) is a collaboration by teams from among global universities to understand better how geodesign can address major global and local challenges in settings that are widely dispersed and that differ widely in geography, climate, society, and scale. How do we identify and share the lessons and practices developed by a globally dispersed array of experts so that the resulting knowledge can be leveraged to solve our most pressing societal needs.
The IGC seeks to address this exceptionally complex problem while educating tomorrow's leader in planning for future change.
