It's a big day for Louisiana! @LouisianaCPRA board unanimously approved the 2023 Coastal Master Plan-a guide for coastal adaptation over the next 50 years, guiding $50 billion investments along the coast. This has been a labor of love alongside incredible collaborators.

This year's fellowship explores how to foster food equity in every NYC neighborhood through the built environment. In Phase I, we'll partner with @NYCPlanning and @nycfood to investigate how city government can strengthen community-based infrastructure to advance food equity.
