Curtis Infrastructure Initiative – January Newsletter
The Curtis Infrastructure Initiative is proud to have launched its bi-monthly newsletter.
The mission of the Curtis Infrastructure Initiative is to identify and promote infrastructure solutions that make cities more equitable, resilient, and enhance long-term community value.
“We shape our infrastructure and thereafter our infrastructure shapes us.”
James J. Curtis, III
ULI Foundation Governor and former Chairman of the ULIF
The Urban Land Institute launched this initiative to build a movement to address our complex and shared infrastructure challenges. This requires growing the table and creating new ones through global and strategic partnerships, providing technical assistance and capacity building at the local level, and acting as a feedback loop to promote the most innovative and/or effective best practices. We believe that smart infrastructure investments are necessary for meeting ULI’s mission of building sustaining and thriving communities.
We define “infrastructure” broadly by including transportation, critical utilities (energy, water, waste, and telecommunications), and the key spaces that build community (anchor institutions, the civic commons, and parks and open space). Fundamentally, infrastructure is what connects us, what allows us to create place, and provides opportunities for future generations.
The Curtis Infrastructure Initiative aims to provide research and practical tools to help ULI members advance infrastructure investment and new solutions to local infrastructure issues along with directly supporting action at the local level through engaging our global member network. Visit the Global Partnerships, Capacity Building, and Research pages to learn more about how we are meeting the mission of the Curtis Infrastructure Initiative. This Initiative is overseen by a Global Advisory Board.
