Majora Carter will present a call to action and a blueprint for improving conditions in underprivileged communities by fostering a strong sense of belonging. She will outline her strategy revolving around the concept of talent: just like businesses and universities, neighborhoods must focus on retaining their brightest minds within the local area to spark true grassroots regeneration
Don’t move to find a better neighborhood—
build one.
A world-renowned TED speaker and urban regeneration expert, Majora Carter leads grassroots campaigns from her native South Bronx.
