Rhinebeck 2042
Youth Voices*
It's your future, help plan it.
Help create the new Rhinebeck Village Comprehensive Plan
(and Town Comp Plan update coming soon too!).
Provide your perspective, future vision, and practical ideas on
how young people should live, play, learn and work
into and beyond the next 20 years.
Then get to work on something that matters most to you!
Young people in 2042 will also thank you for it!
Workshop
14 May. We developed future visions, assessed the village, designed our ideas, and shared how we can better engage youth!
See the workshop materials and youth perspectives HERE.
Assess

And do you know what Tactical Urbanism is? It means you get out and start doing something experimental. Work with us on a project! We have some great ideas lined up. Check out our TU PAGE for more details.
Some places include a Commitment to Future Generations in their plans. If we did this, it would mean that that the Village government would have to think about the long-term impact of their decisions, to work better with people, communities and each other, and to prevent persistent problems such as climate change. See for example: https://www.futuregenerations.wales/about-us/future-generations-act/
The Original Plan. Since Adapted. Youth Sessions of the Kitchen Table Conversations were held, Results of the Youth Workshop shared with the Comprehensive Planning Commitee and with the rest of the community in the main visiioning exercise, the Tactical Urbanism Project was supported by the communiuty and hiughlighted by the planning consultants as a good practice. The 7th grade Civics Class is continuing work on youth led civic projects.

There a lot of other ways you can work with us to make sure youth perspectives
are included in Rhinebeck's future plan.
