Regional Equity Assessment
The Project
The Metro Denver Nature Alliance is conducting a Regional Equity Assessment to better understand equity barriers to accessing nature and green space in the 7-county region. The Equity Assessment is envisioned to be a collaborative process with stakeholders that will inform the future Regional Vision Plan for People and Nature.
Our Role
Equity Policy Solutions is serving as Project Manager and lead equity analyst. We are partnering with Connected Realities to design the project approach; collaborate in the formation of an advisory Equity Working Team, co-facilitate a year-long engagement process to identify key equity barriers to accessing nature; coordinate with a team of university researchers to quantify equity barriers; and produce a final report recommending evidence-based best practices to reduce barriers to accessing nature.
