In this week’s Leadership Newsletter, we examine the importance of site-specific analysis, community movements, and localized funding for achieving social change. In other words, we examine the power of place. One article reveals how—if properly funded—place-based partnerships have the potential to promote systemic change in the complex communities they serve. Two articles on pressing issues—supply chains and affordable housing—demonstrate how specific place-based solutions are needed along with structural change to address problems that appear much larger in scope. Finally, we link to NPQ’s new Climate Justice monthly newsletter, which kicks off next week. One crucial aspect of climate justice is understanding climate change with geographic diversity and disparity in mind. It calls for uplifting place-based movements, supporting affected communities, and analyzing impact on localized ecosystems.
