EDRA Great Places Award Jury

It is a privilege to participate as a juror in the 2026 EDRA Great Places Award, organized by the Environmental Design Research Association — a leading international body dedicated to advancing research, education, and practice at the intersection of people, their built environments, and natural ecosystems.

Alongside fellow jurors, I have had the rewarding task of evaluating outstanding proposals in the Research category and contributing to the selection of the most impactful submissions. The final award recipients will be announced at EDRA's 57th Annual Conference, hosted by UMass Amherst in Massachusetts, on May 27.

Honored to share that I’ve been selected as a juror for the Great Places Awards organized by the Environmental Design Research Association (EDRA), in the Place Research category.

Grateful for the opportunity to contribute to recognizing research that strengthens the relationship between people and place.
