Design For Dignity V, AIA|LA's Conference on Homelessness

AIA|LA presents…
The 5th annual “Design For Dignity” Conference

In light of the severe social injustices revealed by our ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we are convening a three-day virtual forum to address how architects, designers, urban planners, and civic leaders can better work together to solve our urgent housing and homelessness challenge.

New affordable homes, permanent supportive housing facilities, and rapid shelter responses are being designed and realized, but we still have a long way to go to ensure healthy and complete communities for all people. It’s time to re-frame the narrative and ensure more inclusive outcomes.

During this three-day forum, we will also examine innovative solutions, fundamental best-practices, and the opportunities to expand the effectiveness of our collective response with smarter, more streamlined information-sharing.
