Idea about how to make LA a better place to live, submitted by this organization in the 2019 challenge.
Make LA the best place to LIVE
One of five LA2050 Goals
Our region’s residents have the economic means and cultural capital to lead active, healthy lives, and everyone benefits from a sustainable environment.
In 2050, Los Angeles will have the nation’s lowest obesity rates and every neighborhood will have access to healthy, affordable food. Every family will be able to afford quality health care and housing. And no families will face environmental health hazards because of where they live or how much money they make.
Resiliency IN A BOX
“Resiliency IN A BOX” is a mural covered repurposed shipping container housing equipment producing a renewable, sustainable source of potable water, soil enhancements and clean energy on a daily basis. Our project provides opportunities for STEAM education and a canvas for public art. In the Community Healing Gardens' Tech Garden at LAUSD Markham Middle School in Watts, it will improve food production plus be an off-the-grid, vital resource for the entire neighborhood when a disaster strikes.

Idea about how to make LA a better place to play, submitted by this organization in the 2015 challenge.
Make LA the best place to PLAY
One of five LA2050 Goals
Our region is a place where people of all ages have easy access to clean, safe, and sustainable venues to enjoy the natural environment, arts and cultural resources, and local beaches, waterways, and open space.
In 2050, people of all ages will enjoy safe homes, safe neighborhoods, and safe places to play. Every neighborhood will provide its residents with vibrant park space, every child will have access to afterschool enrichment programs, and residents will love their neighborhoods.
From the Mountains to the Sea growing Civic Art Gardens with schools along the LA River
We will produce a Civic Arts and Engagement Program connecting communities and cultures by creating, cultivating and sustaining "art gardens" (serving as outdoor classrooms, meeting places, art studios, urban gardens) in public open spaces along the LA River. In partnership with adjacent schools representing a diversity of people and environments, we’ll show how to bring more Beauty to civic spaces and build community through creating healthy and happy places for people of all ages to “play”.
