The Design Futures Public Interest Design (PID) Student Leadership Forum is an interdisciplinary convening that fosters capacity-building for future leaders hoping to use design as a tool for social equity and positive change in and with historically marginalized communities. Design Futures seeks to:

- Build the next generation of leadership in design
- Diversify the ecosystem of public interest design in terms of discipline, race, gender, and beyond, and
- Curate a national network of thought leadership

This conference is for the next generation of community-engaged designers, planners, and advocates.

Arbolope will lead a tour of the newly completed Love Bank Park on Cherokee Street as part of Design Futures Forum 2024.
