Led by NYU Global Distinguished Professor Ricky Burdett, the open workshop will explore the social, cultural and political aspects of movement and transport systems and how they affect urban inequality. Speakers will discuss how time and space are mediated by a city's 'mobility DNA', and how transport patterns determine access to jobs, social facilities and the public realm.

A catalogue with essays by Marvin Taylor, David Trinidad, and Monaghan as well as Dlugos' poem will accompany the show.

Title: Global Health Workforce Summit
Runtime: 4:46
Date posted: 15 years ago
Description: Why does global health workforce matter? Health care workers are the backbone of health systems, yet they are not sufficiently recognized as such and fail to attract donors' strategic investment plans. The lack of tangible immediate results and the complexity of health systems simply have not sparked enough investment and action by funders, foundations, and institutions.

Going Solo: A Conversation about Cities, Social Policy, and Public Sociology

Title: Going Solo: A Conversation about Cities, Social Policy, and Public Sociology
Runtime: 1:22:44
Date posted: 15 years ago
Description: with Eric Klinenberg and Sudhir Venkatesh

The incredible rise of living alone is the greatest social change that we've failed to name and identify, let alone understand. In 1950, four million Americans lived alone. Today, more 32 million do, accounting for 28 percent of American households. The rates of living alone are even higher in urban areas. More than 40 percent of all households consist of just one person in Atlanta, Denver, Seattle, San Francisco, and Minneapolis. In Manhattan, the figure is nearly 50 percent.

Eric Klinenberg examines the seismic impact of these changes in his new book, Going Solo: The Extraordinary Rise and Surprising Appeal of Living Alone (Penguin Press). In this public event, the renowned Columbia University sociologist and best-selling author Sudhir Venkatesh joins Klinenberg in conversation. They will discuss Going Solo, the state of contemporary cities, and the reemergence of public sociology.

On December 8, 2010, Anthony Shadid of the New York Times, with Professor Jillian Schwedler of the University of Massachusetts, Amherst participated in a taped conversation about their respective crafts of journalism and scholarship, how they do or perhaps should overlap, and how both professions might arrive at a more contextualized understanding of the Middle East. Much of their discussion revolves around the complexity of ethno-sectarian identity in the region, how to follow the politics of protest, and perhaps most appropriately, how to best write stories about ordinary people struggling with daily life in the Arab world.
