Sustainability Series – Affordable Housing and Barriers to Equity in the Denver Region This event was part of a monthly Sustainability Series with three panelists, moderated by Marjo Curgus, who explored the rising cost of housing in Denver, the role the public and private sector play in housing development, and recent successes in integrating housing and sustainability goals. The panelists included Chuck Perry of Perry Rose Developers, Doctor Carrie Makarewicz and Desa West of Mile High Connects. The Alliance for Sustainable Colorado (one of the first mission based non profit centers in Denver) along with the Posner Center for International Development and The Worth Chair for Sustainability (University of Colorado, Denver) held the event to educate the community about different sustainability issues and to provide an opportunity to network and get involved in the topics discussed. The Alliance for Sustainable Colorado offers nonprofit tenants focused on sustainability issues lowered rent to work downtown to promote collaboration and complete policy work. The Posner is also a multi tenant non profit center focusing on international development issues.
