How can we sustain our community and communities? Communities provide a foundation for civic participation, social engagement, a sense of belonging, the preservation and celebration of culture and build resilience. Strong communities can counter marginalization and foster shared understandings. Overall, communities can improve the quality of life for both individuals and society. There are calls for sustaining communities through public spaces, inclusive programs, urban planning, housing, development, public transportation, and natural resource use.
Sponsored by the University of New Hampshire College of Liberal Arts, the Global Racial and Social Inequality Lab, the New Hampshire Humanities Collaborative and the Community College System of New Hampshire, the spring 2025 symposium, “Sustaining Community and Communities,” is designed to encourage dialogue and exploration of issues related to community and communities.
