Desmistificando a crise habitacional | Chris Marco | TEDxMacatawa

As causas da crise habitacional são muitas e as opiniões sobre elas variam bastante. Nesta palestra do TEDxMacatawa, Chris Marco, diretor de desenvolvimento comunitário na Lakeshore Advantage, separa os mitos sobre habitação das realidades. Ele apresenta comunidades do oeste de Michigan que já trabalham em soluções e defende que enfrentar um problema nacional começa nas comissões de planejamento locais.

• Mitos e realidades sobre habitação
• Comunidades que já desenvolvem soluções
• O papel das comissões de planejamento locais

Ask 10 people what’s causing the housing crisis and you’ll get 10 different answers. Chris Marco separates housing myths from housing realities, takes a road trip through communities already building solutions, and shows why fixing a national problem starts at your local planning commission. Chris Marco is the first-ever Director of Community Development at Lakeshore Advantage, where he supports housing initiatives in Allegan and Ottawa counties. A 26-year native of West Michigan, Chris cares deeply about the region’s communities and the people who call them home. Chris has previously presented at the International Conference on Urban Affairs and the Midwest Political Science Association. He has also delivered guest lectures and published research in Governing Magazine, Public Square: A CNU Journal, and The Urbanist. A proud Laker for a Lifetime, Chris holds degrees in Public Administration and Political Science from Grand Valley State University. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
