CalPoly Pomona’s Department of Urban & Regional Planning Presents the 2020 Dale Prize Theme
2020 Dale Prize
#WeAre!: Advancing Gender and Sexuality in Planning Practice
William R. And June Dale Prize for Excellence in Urban and Regional Planning
William R. And June Dale Prize for Excellence in Urban and Regional Planning
The 2020 Dale Prize theme is #WeAre!: Advancing Gender and Sexuality in Planning Practice. #WeAre! is broad, energized by #MeToo, by inadequate representation of women in the “public faces” of planning, by resistance to the proliferation of state “bathroom bills” and laws discriminating against LGBTQ+ prospective adoptive parents. The topic is timely, coming after three years of rises in hate crimes targeting anti-LGBTQ+ people, and in the wake of several high-profile cases of sexual abuse, and erosion of federal-level support for LGBTQ+ employment rights in the military and, potentially, the civilian labor force.
