All of your group projects are related to processes of uneven development and gentrification and all of your community contacts are working together to address these issues through the NYC Community Land Initiative (NYCCLI). As you begin working on your popular education products, try to think about how it will relate/contribute to NYCCLI’s work as an alliance. The following might be helpful to review:
Analyses of the Problem (including Banking on Vacancy) that NYCCLI is trying to address
Related/allied efforts around Community Gardens
Promising alternatives that NYCCLI has researched and is learning from
And some of the popular education materials we have produced to help us reach target audiences:
Video introduction to NYCCLI, the problem and our response (and the website more generally)
Flyer: Why Community Land Trusts
Coming soon: a board game and comic strip/poster!
