How can we make our cities more equitable? #SGSUP is working to figure that out through our new initiative #EquitableUrbanFutures. We hosted a panel discussion on the topic last month - watch it now! https://t.co/QRf9LvXxaS

If I had one thought for research today, it would be this: the world is too important. Jettison publishing in journals. Work on something that matters. Work with people who might use your knowledge to make a difference. Use your talent at inquiry to change the world.

[ASU Stardust Center @StardustASU]

Our conversation on the interconnectedness of transportation and health begins! @VitalystHealth https://t.co/u3u95c95hr

[ASU Stardust Center @StardustASU]

CJ Hager of @VitalystHealth: skip the traditional ways of community engagement, and let the community lead the way. #HealthTransportationAZ

[ASU Stardust Center @StardustASU]

Emily Yetman of @LSATucson: the effect of isolation on a person's health is the equivalent of smoking 18 cigarettes a day. #HealthTransportationAZ

[ASU Stardust Center @StardustASU]

Phil Pangrazio of @Ability360: Millennials, who are, and will be, changing the world, give me hope. #HealthTransportationAZ

Protected Bike Lanes are better for drivers as well as bicylists. #HealthTransportationAZ

[ASU Stardust Center @StardustASU]

CJ Hager of @VitalystHealth: "One-third of our land in Phoenix area is being used for roads and parking." Let's use our public funds for multimodal systems. #HealthTransportationAZ

[ASU Stardust Center @StardustASU]

.@jonford of @VitalystHealth: studies show that car-dominant societies make for less- healthy communities (connection to obesity and more) #HealthTransportationAZ @AZCommunities

[ASU Stardust Center @StardustASU]

Emily Yetman of @LSATucson: Planning for #CompleteStreets has to engage entire communities, beyond traffic engineers. #HealthTransportationAZ

[ASU Stardust Center @StardustASU]

Eva Olivas, Phoenix Revitalization Corp: #CompleteStreets can mean money going to select areas and not others. Cities need to distribute resources equitably throughout the City.

Phil Pangrazio of @abilty360: If done right, AVs can be a great, accessible option for the disability community. #HealthTransportationAZ @VitalystHealth @AZCommunities

[ASU Stardust Center @StardustASU]

Phil Pangrazio of @ability360: There's no plan to make an accessible autonomous vehicle on the factory floor. That's a problem. #HealthTransportationAZ @VitalystHealth @AZCommunities
