@CamiloCOG @sociablecity @Bravoarthur @adrianaplatasan @nightlifeinter It was a honor to have such a great panel.

Although “zero tolerance” is still the default in many places, drug policy in the U.S. is shifting. What would it take for cities to adopt a harm-reduction approach in their nightlife venues? https://t.co/5vylk8LwGm #harmreduction #nightlife #safespaces #sociability

Join the Tuesday, Nov 8 forum on Building a Safety Alliance for Risk Management. Police are typically the catch-all for public safety challenges in nightlife settings. But other city, county and state agencies also play a critical role in nighttime safety. https://t.co/EsTWkloAYE

@AndrewRigie I think alternative uses as well, like childcare for nighttime workers, supervised public restrooms open 24/7, Community Services drop-in for at risk youth and unsheltered, libraries and other learning centers.

I had the opportunity to interview Darrel Stephens on nighttime safety and evidence-based and community policing in @sociablecity. He introduces the potential of robotics with artificial intelligence as substitute for police and security staff. https://t.co/BX9AGnKMyA

Why do cities need nightlife? Join the May 10 Tuesday Forum. For two years, many cities limited indoor music and DJ events. Residents living near nightlife venues experienced peace and quiet without 2am disturbance. Now they ask Why do we need nightlife? https://t.co/EsTWkloAYE

@AndrewRigie The future of cities will be the daytime and nighttime social economy as part of @sociablecity

Hundreds gathered to protest high rates of sexual violence in @CityBrussels #nightlife venues. The protest has sparked govt action against #VAWG. "If it’s not safe, don’t count on us women," say organizers. #SociableCity https://t.co/3TklDaY1ZV

As cities prepare for the "summit social surge" there will be great demands for mobility options. My interview with @Matt_Daus, president, of the International Association of Transportation Regulatores forecasts the future of nighttime mobility. https://t.co/z73SwPXopm
