In this episode of Design to Connect, the hosts Arezoo mohebpour and Khadidja Konate tackle these critical questions with Seth D. Kaplan, author of Fragile Neighborhoods and a leading expert on fragile states, societies, and communities. As a Professorial Lecturer at Johns Hopkins University and the author of four books, Seth shares actionable insights on how neighborhoods can become the foundation for resilient and connected societies.
Drawing on his extensive research, we explore the role of neighborhoods in addressing social breakdown, their impact on mental health and resilience, and how fostering belonging at the community level can help solve today’s challenges.
