In Search of the ‘Just City'


Toni Griffin has gained recognition for spreading the concept of “just cities,” an approach to urban planning that involves values, justice, and equity as priorities in any project. Now director of the Just City Lab at Harvard’s Graduate School of Design, Griffin is teaching about the concepts of just cities and implementing them into projects, as well. Most recently, her design won a competition in St. Louis that will use green space to create more racially inclusive spaces in the city.
