This panel explores timely questions for global architectural practice provoked by the simultaneous urban epidemics of COVID-19, social inequity, and climate change. How does the practice of architecture need to change to confront the many vulnerabilities in urban settings rendered visible by COVID? What are the stakes for global public health in doing so? This session is sponsored by the Epidemic Urbanism Initiative: epidemicurbanism@gmail.com
