Planning for Oregon 2050

This session will share about and engage participants in the planning process Oregon 2050, a multi-stakeholder effort, facilitated by a team of scholars at Portland State University College of Urban and Public Affairs, which addresses the existing gap in statewide future planning. By the year 2050, Oregon may welcome 1.2 million new residents. Meanwhile, our state is in the midst of a variety of significant economic, environmental, social and population changes, and we face many uncertainties about the future (e.g. climate change, pandemics, technology). Oregon 2050 brings together leading scholars from Portland State University along with key community partners and stakeholders to collectively identify major public policy issues confronting the state and provide perspective on how to think about those issues in planning for the future.
