Focus groups identified non-burdensome ways that project partners were already collecting or could easily collect information to quantify and track impact. This feedback was developed into quantitative surveys that were administered via partners in 2018 and analyzed in early 2019. Forty one percent of City of Design partners collected or are planning to collect data related to their project’s impact. At this early stage of the work, event attendance and demographic data is easiest to collect, and only three partners were able to measure the impact of programming on changes in perspective, thoughts on participation, or building usage. An additional three partners collected data on investment or revenue from public and private sources. Data collection is ongoing. Wherever impact is cited within this report, it has been sourced via these partner data collection efforts. Interviews to inform the development of the three case studies were conducted in March, 2019, by EarlyWorks, llc. 2 DETROIT UNESCO CITY OF DESIGN | 2019 MONITORING REPORT By championing Detroit design, we contribute to the As a result, we are happy to announce that Detroit development of a thriving city that offers opportunities Creative Corridor Center has become Design Core for all.

  • It's a Pivotal Time for Transportation -- in the U.S., in Southeast Michigan
    It’s a pivotal time for transportation -- in the U.S., in Southeast Michigan, and worldwide. Half the world now lives in city regions. By 2020 that figure will rise to 2/3, challenging current transportation models and policies while at the same time opening exciting new opportunities for business and innovation. Moving Minds: The Next Transportation Infrastructure brings top researchers together with business leaders, entrepreneurs, practitioners and policy makers from around the world and across the U.S. to advance new thinking and to accelerate implementation of systems-based New Mobility solutions and infrastructures. A special focus will be on “Moving Minds” -- understanding the cultural, psychological, and aspirational underpinnings of our relationship to transportation (for both users and leaders), and responding with innovative systems, policies, and business models that address these values sustainably, equitably and compellingly. WELCOME! Dear New Mobility Colleague, We wish you a very warm welcome to Moving Minds: The Next Transportation Infrastructure. As you’ll note from the participant bios posted on the website, every participant has a unique contribution to make to advancing New Mobility, and that is the purpose of this meeting. We are together not just to listen and go away. We’re here to make deep connections and build partnerships that will accelerate new ideas, new projects, new research, new businesses and new policies that transform transportation in a sustainable, equitable, and economically vital direction. You’ll also see from the website and the acknowledgements below that this summit, as SMART in general, is a team effort, part of a growing Global Learning Community.
