The Starter Charter was developed from a series of outreach events from 2019-2021

To commemorate the College of Environment and Design's 50th anniversary, CED faculty gathered to discuss the role that our disciplines and professions can and should play in today's world. Inspired by the Athens Charter for the Restoration of Historic Monuments (1931) and the CIAM's Athens Charter (1933), the resulting Starter Charter was developed from a series of conversations and outreach events that involved CED faculty, staff, and students from 2019-2021. As a starter charter, we hope it sparks new ideas and new discussions as we move forward.
