Planning and design practices play a significant role in shaping the ways individuals to come together, share ideas, and take collective actions. Moreover, the ways in which public spaces are planned, designed, constructed, and maintained provide a kind of social infrastructure that supports a community’s pursuit of health, safety, and welfare, and its expression of civic aspirations. This issue of Platform highlights how the programs, faculty, and students across the School of Architecture contribute to the creation of places that foster civic life.
