The Academy of Architecture for Justice (AAJ) promotes and fosters the exchange of information and knowledge between members, professional organizations, and the public for high-quality planning, design, and delivery of justice architecture.
There has been much discussion regarding the role of architects in the planning and design of justice facilities, especially related to facilities that incarcerate individuals. I’ll lead a discussion with client representatives and members of the consulting team regarding work in planning new justice facilities for Cuyahoga County, and discuss if architecture can go beyond design and influence systemic change. Please join to get an owner and user perspective on planning justice facilities for the future with consideration of reducing our reliance on incarceration. A preview video of the presentation is available for viewing to see the conversation.
