Community-based Cities Fellows 2022
The Planet Texas 2050 Equitable and Regenerative Cities Flagship Project is seeking Austin area residents (Travis, Hays, Bastrop, or Williamson Counties) interested in advising our research project from February - August 2022 as a community-based Cities Fellow. This cohort of three community-based Cities Fellows will advise the development of a participatory, circular economy framework that can be used to conceptualize Resilience Hubs in Austin, Texas.
Phase 1: Equitable and Regenerative Cities Flagship Project
Where do you get your groceries? Do you compost? Do you like tacos? Planet Texas 2050, a University of Texas at Austin Research Grand Challenge, is launching a new project called Equitable and Regenerative Cities. The first phase of the project is looking at our food system, and we are collecting stories from people across Texas to learn more about their relationships to food and the food system. We will use insights from those stories to develop new approaches and strategies for reducing waste and making a healthier, more equitable food system. And if you share your food story, you’ll get a $25 gift card! To learn more about the project and share your story, visit our project website. Contribute your own food story and be a part of this important work!
