SUMMARY:Centering People and Our Environment: A Sustainable Right to Energy and Economic Justice
DESCRIPTION:Climate change is forcing us to rethink not only how we invest\, but why.  \nThis conversation reframes climate transition as a question of purpose\, power\, and place. What is the purpose of public infrastructure and public investment? Who are public resources designed to serve? And what outcomes are they meant to produce? \nJoin the Institute on Race\, Power\, and Political Economy at The New School and the McKnight Foundation to explore how investments in infrastructure and energy can strengthen communities\, expand economic agency\, and protect the environment. \nBringing together leaders from climate\, labor\, philanthropy\, and public policy\, the program will examine how public investment decisions shape democratic governance and the future of people and places. \nRegister HERE

SUMMARY:Public Pharma\, Public Power: Taking Back Control of the Medicine Supply
DESCRIPTION:Access to affordable medicine is a human right. Yet across the United States\, drug prices remain out of reach for millions\,  with the heaviest burdens falling on Black\, Latino\, Indigenous\, and other communities long excluded from equitable care. At the same time\, a profit-driven pharmaceutical system drains public resources and puts enormous pressure on the health systems communities depend on. \nPublic pharma offers a different path. This panel will explore three urgent questions: \nWhy is the current system failing us? Market failures\, perverse incentives\, and extractive private actors throughout the pharmaceutical supply chain – from research and development to manufacturing to distribution – keep life-saving medicines unaffordable for the people who need them most. \nWhat can public pharma actually do? Public options at every stage of the pharmaceutical value chain can create real competition\, check private power\, and deliver on government’s fundamental responsibility to ensure people can access the medicines they need. \nWhere is this happening right now? Public pharma initiatives are gaining momentum across the country. Our panelists will share what is working\, what we are learning\, and how these efforts are building toward lasting systemic change. \nLight refreshments beginning at 5:00pm. Panel begins at 5:30pm. \nRegister HERE \nPresented by the Institute on Race\, Power and Political Economy’s Health and Political Economy Project\, T1International\, NYU Law’s Science\, Health\, and Information Clinic\, NYU Law’s Engelberg Center on Innovation Law and Policy\, and Economic Security Project\, alongside the Partnership for Public Pharma.
