Podcast Description

Known as the place "where the community gathers to discuss challenges, create opportunities, and celebrate accomplishments," the Forum is a catalyst for thoughtful public debate, innovative thinking, new ideas, and timely action addressing critical issues that impact Northeast Ohio. Since its inception in 1998, the Forum has tackled a broad range of civic issues including the lakefront plan, economic growth and development, affordable housing, immigration, education, the convention center, poverty, race and sustainable development. The work of the forum is based on the premise that an informed and engaged citizenry is a valuable asset for the region's future growth and prosperity. In 2005, the Forum was recognized by Northern Ohio Live as "a springboard for economic and social progress throughout the region" and in 2003 received the national CivicMind award for its Millennium Program, which worked with area high school students to introduce them to careers in public service.

127 VideoBarbara Strauss - Thomas F. Campbell Ph.D. Exhibition Gallery Opening and Reception A recurring theme in 20th century Cleveland that continues to the present day is that during difficult economic periods communities of people have come together to raise food crops on city land. The working men’s farms during the Great Depression, the victory gardens during World War II, community gardens established during the years of urban renewal, and the present day market gardeners of the local food movement, all provide examples of revivals of urban agriculture as a response to economic difficulties. As more and more people try to stretch their budgets during this recession, some are turning to the backyard as the place to look for food. The exhibit features images of commercial greenhouses, victory gardens, work relief gardens, community gardens and Cleveland Public School Horticulture Program. This exhibit and the Feeding Cleveland website were the work project of Carolyn Hufford, Master Gardener and graduate librarian, who volunteered hundreds of hours selecting, digitizing, and cataloging the resources found there. 5/6/09 Free View In iTunes

Speaker list: Michelle Distefano, Fran Mentch, Wendy Naylor, and Emil Lisniansky. The Medical Mart-it sounds like a good idea, but is it? Do Cuyahoga County taxpayers really understand this half-a-billion dollar project? Is this latest public-private partnership a match made in heaven or should taxpayers demand a prenuptial agreement? These were the questions Professor William Bowen posed to his class this summer. His students did their homework and found some very interesting answers. Attend this forum to learn more about the Medical Mart and convention center , its projected costs and benefits to the community , the success of similar projects in other cities , and how to determine the rationale for using public money to subsidize private enterprise.

The Concord Coalition believes that only with an engaged, informed and demanding public can the nation's fiscal challenges be met. The Fiscal Wake-Up Tour's mission is to cut through the usual partisan rhetoric and stimulate a more realistic public dialogue on what we want our nation's future to look like, along with the required trade-offs. We believe that elected leaders in Washington know there is a problem, but they are unlikely to act unless forced to by their constituents. The Tour began as a series of public forums around the country and now, in addition to those forums, we are organzing in-depth local committees to futher focus attention on our nation's daunting long-term fiscal challenges. 10/2/08 Free View In iTunes
