Contents Podcast Panelists Additional Resources Transcript In March 2024, we continued our Place Matters webinar series with our third installment: “A Place to Play: Moving Towards Fairness of Place for All Children.” During the webinar, we explored the power of play in supporting early childhood development, as well as the importance of ensuring that children and caregivers have access to safe green spaces, like parks and playgrounds. Our panel of experts discussed how access to safe, stimulating, and joyful play space is not equally distributed across communities, along with strategies to work toward building a future where all children have a safe place to play.

Today Laura chats with architect Kevin Ervin Kelley, co-founder of the strategic design firm Shook Kelley, who is all about creating places and experiences that have the power to convene people. Doesn't that sound cool? Making the audience the star of the place allows both Creators and Capitalists to get clear on what kind of payoff they need to provide to consumers in exchange for their time, energy, and expense. Successful architects and designers are also master communicators and today is our chance to learn from a high AQ A-Lister! (AQ = Aesthetic Intelligence.) The competitive edge has shifted already and that matters whether you lead a company or want to stand out as a thought leader. But a little less Alan Turing and a bit more William Shakespeare would change everything. While Kevin works a lot with retail and other public-facing industries, expectations are now radically different no matter where you work! Mercado is an excellent example of the future successful grocery store. You'll learn in this fascinating conversation how to think about place in the modern context. Top-notch takeaways include:

Contents Podcast Panelists Additional Resources Transcript   In December 2023, we continued our Place Matters webinar series with our second installment: “Understanding Racism's Impact on Child Development: Working Towards Fairness of Place in the United States.” During the webinar, Stephanie Curenton, PhD, Nathaniel Harnett, PhD, Mavis Sanders, PhD, and Natalie Slopen, ScD, discussed their latest research, exploring how racism gets “under the skin” to impact children's development and how it contributes to unequal access to opportunity in the places where children live, grow, play, and learn. Together, they explored ways to dismantle systemic barriers and work toward solutions that promote healthy child development. The webinar discussion has been adapted for this episode of the Brain Architects podcast.  Panelists Stephanie Curenton, PhD (Moderator)Director, Center on the Ecology of Early Development, Boston University

In this special series of Place Matters, we have been exploring the relationship of congregations to their local context. We have made the case that, for churches, place should matter too. Any understanding of a thriving congregation is incomplete if it does not include caring well for our neighbors and neighborhood. We partnered with the Barna Group to put some data behind this. For this conversation to have any credibility, of course, we must engage a more inclusive and representative audience of leaders. So, we have been talking to our friend, the Rev Dr. Alvin Sanders, President and CEO of World Impact, about some similar research he and his team have done with Barna to engage Black and brown pastors who are serving in lower-income, majority-minority neighborhoods. World Impact is an organization that exists specifically to offer training and equipping for church leaders working in lower-income, urban communities. So what did Alvin and his team discover when they asked about the role of congregations in the neighborhood? Are there signs of hope here? And if so, what can majority culture churches learn to close the church-to-neighborhood gap?

On this episode of the Utterly Moderate Podcast we discuss recent controversies at and concerns about colleges and universities in the United States—from highly publicized instances of campus unrest to a lack of intellectual diversity among faculty to hypocrisy on free speech. This episode’s guest is Jacob Mackey, associate professor at Occidental College and coeditor with host Lawrence Eppard of The Poisoning of the American Mind, which is due out later this spring. Check out the podcast episode and also check out two reports that were recently released from the Connors Institute, the “Connors Institute Media Report Card” and “Place Matters.” In the media report card Connors researchers take a rigorous look at numerous news and information sources in the U.S. and evaluate their bias and accuracy. Check it out yourself to see which outlets made the grade and which ones missed the mark. In “Place Matters” Connors researchers examine the impact of neighborhoods and communities on American children’s chances of success. The efforts and choices of the individual children themselves of course matter for their success, as do the efforts and resources of their families. But this research shows that the neighborhoods and communities where children are raised matter a great deal for their success as well—take a look at the report yourself and also take some time to examine your own neighborhood!

Contents Podcast Panelists Additional Resources Transcript In June, we hosted a webinar about our latest Working Paper, Place Matters: The Environment We Create Shapes the Foundations of Healthy Development, which examines how a wide range of conditions in the places where children live, grow, play, and learn can shape how children develop. The paper examines the many ways in which the built and natural environment surrounding a child can affect their development, emphasizes how the latest science can help deepen our understanding, and points towards promising opportunities to re-design environments so that all children can grow up in homes and neighborhoods free of hazards and rich with opportunity. Corey Zimmerman, our Chief Program Officer, moderated a discussion around these themes between Dr. Lindsey Burghardt (Chief Science Officer) and Dr. Dominique Lightsey-Joseph (Director of Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging Strategy) which has been adapted for this episode of the Brain Architects podcast.     Panelists Tassy Warren, EdM (Podcast Host)Deputy Director and Chief Strategy Officer, Center on the Developing Child at Harvard University Corey Zimmerman, EdM (Moderator)Chief Program Officer, Center on the Developing Child at Harvard University Lindsey C.

Welcome. I'm Corey Zimmerman. I'm the Chief Program Officer here at the Center on the Developing Child, and today we're going to be discussing a paper, the name of it is Place Matters: The Environment We Create Shapes the Foundation of Healthy Development. This paper was written by our National Scientific Council on Developing Child and was released earlier this year in March. We see this webinar as an opportunity to begin to understand a broader frame for thinking about what influences early childhood development, the role that inequity plays in influencing the environment children are in, and third, some early thoughts on new actors or sectors that might be called upon given this broader frame,

We're excited to release the first episode for season 2 of Place Matters! This season, you'll hear all about one of the pillars of FCS: Neighborhood Engagement. In this first episode, we'll introduce the "big idea" of Neighborhood Engagement.

Driving Route 66 from Tulsa to Oklahoma City, about three miles before the town of Luther you'll notice an old sandstone building with peeling white gables. At first glance, it's the kind of structure a realtor might dismiss as a "tear down." But behind its dusty windows rest a pair of faded signs that simply read in orange print, "This place matters." The place is The Threatt Filling Station, which in its heyday was a black owned rest stop that serviced African American motorists throughout the entirety of the segregation era. More than a destination for gas and provisions, it provided a much needed refuge for weary travelers of color. We'll spend some time there with cousins Edward and Allen Threatt, who share stories, family history, memories of its past, and their plans for its future, while cultural documentarian Candacy Taylor is on hand to describe what the experience of traveling 66 would have been like for black drivers. We're also joined by Dr. Lorn Foster of Pomona College to touch on the Great Migration's impact. The resulting segment is a tribute to those who found joy in the midst of darkness, and to borrow a quote from MLK, made "a way out of no way."

What neighborhood or zip code families live in can have huge implications for how well they live, in terms of health and longevity, income, transportation, and access to economic opportunities. This week Memphis Metropolis welcomes Jamilca Burke, chief strategy and impact officer for Seeding Success. Seeding Success is helping facilitate a multi-sector initiative called Place Matters that aims to "define the challenges of our social and economic systems and policies, and identify sustainable solutions that make a shared vision for a thriving community a reality. The goal will be to improve the connection between the systems that support families like housing, community development, economic development, education, transportation, health, and workforce development and allow residents to access these resources efficiently." Later in the show, regular commentator Cole Bradley returns to do a deeper dive into the disparity between places and the elements of a neighborhood where everyone can thrive.

In this talk, Eugenia (Gina) South critically examines the links between place and health, including the impact that structural racism has had on neighborhood environments. Using urban nature as a case example, this talk looks at the links between nature and health, and the experience of research in vacant lot greening as an example of action-oriented, community relevant scientific inquiry. Eugenia South is Assistant Professor of Emergency Medicine at Penn's Perelman School of Medicine, as well as the Faculty Director for the Penn Urban Health Lab. As a physician-scientist, her broad vision is to improve health and quality of life for residents in low-resource and Black communities through both research and clinical work. Eugenia's work on vacant lot greening has been published in JAMA Network Open, PNAS, and AJPH, as well as been covered by national and international media outlets such as the Washington Post, NPR, and Time Magazine.

"Help local people think about what they can do to have access to the natural resources they need for very important things like clean water, food, and cultural practices...(which are) incredibly important." Stacy Jupiter on Green Connections Radio As world leaders and climate leaders, scientists and activists gather at the UN’s COP25 conference in Madrid, Spain to address solutions to the climate crisis, Dr. Stacy Jupiter has a novel perspective on what communities need to address in those climate resilience plans – and she just won a MacArthur “Genius” award for it. Listen to Stacy explain to Green Connections Radio host Joan Michelson why our sense of a place and its culture are just as vital to our well-being as clean water and food, especially in many countries like Melanesia, where she is currently working. You’ll hear: How our sense of place affects, and reflects, our well-being Why she’s using comic books as part of her climate resilience work. How cultural rituals that include nature are more powerful than those that don’t for many of the world’s populations. Keys to engaging your public – and “as many different parts of society as possible” – in climate resilience planning. Lots of great career advice and inspiration! Read Joan's Forbes blog about COP25 too. “In order to take things to the next (career) level, you need to have a good support network….to have people who...can help balance all the different aspects of your life, so you can have the time and space to off in a few direction and be innovative.” Stacy Jupiter on Green Connections Radio You’ll also want to listen to: Nardia Haigh about scenario planning.

“Key moments for this uprising would need prepared places to emerge. Hear me: Placemaking is an act of God, to facilitate connection between humanity and the divine. These places can be naturally occurring as evidenced by Howard Thurman's young life, or carved out of the natural environment or social order through construction and intention. Curating places beyond the maze of particulars which ensnare the human spirit is an act of resistance which liberates people to experience God.” Sermon by Starsky Wilson at All Saints Church, Pasadena, on Sunday, August 4, 2019.

Place matters. Because Jesus took on flesh and blood, lived in a neighborhood and identified with a people – we also root ourselves in neighborhoods and identify with people. Our place is Washington, DC. While many come to this city to consume it and to use it, we want to be among those who love it. On Pentecost Sunday, we considered the indwelling of the spirit in our particular geography.  [Acts 2:1-24]

Our computers coupled with services like Skype, allow us to travel to anyplace on earth at the speed of light.  We have seen the surface of the Moon and of Mars and have been in meetings with participants all over the world.So should this tell us that anyplace is everyplace?  That things like geography, place, and indigenous cultures don’t matter in the 21st century?Eric Weiner, the author of The Geography of Genius: A Search for the World's Most Creative Places from Ancient Athens to Silicon Valley, argues that that it matters a lot.  In fact, more than ever.After all, why is it that places like Athens, Florence, Virginia & Philadelphia in 1776 and Silicon Valley today have produced some of the crowning achievements of mankind?  Maybe it’s because, as Eric Weiner says, place matters.My conversation with Eric Weiner:

We take a break today from the series "Living Between The Lines".  Today Nathan talks about the importance of place and how much it impacts the future of CityCom.

Food deserts, lack of green spaces for physical activity, economic disinvestment. All of these contribute to significant health and wellness disparities for Black and Latino urban communities.  Our guests on this episode of Know-It-All: The ABCs of Education are Autumn Saxton-Ross, Ph.D., and Wilson, a 13-year-old champion triathlete. Dr. Saxton-Ross is the Program Director for the PLACE MATTERS initiative at the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies. She will share how she has dedicated her life to improving the health of communities through engagement, activity, education, exposure, and opportunity, because, in her words, "a healthy life is lived better outdoors." Wilson will talk with us about how important physical activity and sports are to his personal and academic success. _______ Host, Allison R. Brown, is a civil rights attorney and President of Allison Brown Consulting (ABC), which works with schools and non-profits to develop educational equity plans and promote student equity.

A project of City Lore and the Municipal Art Society, Place Matters has spent the past ten years tracking, documenting, and promoting the places that connect New Yorkers to the past, host community and cultural traditions, and keep the city distinctive. The work of Place Matters is based on nominations of places submitted by the public and can be adapted to any location. Place Matters co-founder and director Marci Reaven discusses the kinds of places people care about and strategies for promotion and protection.

Recently, Place Matters celebrated its 10th Anniversary by honoring ten places that matter in a ceremony held at the Municipal Art Society. Our first podcast is David Gonzales' speech from the evening. Enjoy!
