Today, my colleagues saw a presentation from SDOT that only reinforces what we in Southeast Seattle already know: Our streets are not safe. They are not safe for kids, for elders, for people with low vision, for anyone who cannot drive for health-related or economic reasons.

#moveequity is about investment in the fabric of our communities- sidewalks, those infrastructure pieces that link every mode of transportation, connect all of us to economic opportunities, services and social engagement! @OpenSidewalks

"The future is sidewalks. Sidewalks everywhere, sidewalks that are accessible." -@AnnaZivarts #MoveEquity #ICTD2020

In association with @Microsoft through @SmartCityA11y @G3ict, workshop #3 "AI for Inclusive Urban Sidewalks" is happening now - tinyurl.com/ycxrz9r5 We encourage more cities to partner with us for inclusive sidewalks through our work in 5 cities in 4 countries.


Come learn more about mapping for accessibility and how cities can benefit at #ZeroCon22. This is a big deal for @OpenSidewalks and we are honored for this opportunity.

Join speakers on Feb. 25 as they share the approach to collecting the data in 5 cities in #Americas to inform the @OpenSidewalks tool that helps persons with disabilities to build the route which responds to their individual needs. Watch bit.ly/3IfNO8q #ZeroCon22
