The Lillian Wald Symposium—named for Henry Street’s founder—is an annual gathering that fosters discussion of the most pressing issues of our time. Amid energetic debate over how to make New York City more affordable, inclusive, and livable, this year’s symposium will address the opportunities and challenges (economic, political, and cultural) inherent in making transformative change in our nation’s largest city. Panelists will address the legacies of past city governments, how financial and infrastructural decisions are made, and how housing, childcare, transportation, and the arts can serve everyone.
