2027 Design for Freedom Summit, March 31, New Canaan, Connecticut
Event Description
The 2027 Design for Freedom Summit arrives at a pivotal moment for the built environment. Join 550 industry leaders, policymakers, manufacturers, investors, developers, architects, and educators committed to eliminating forced and child labor from the building materials supply chain.
Last year’s Summit brought together people across sectors to tackle some of the built environment’s current challenges in addressing forced labor in the building materials supply chain, including U.S. foreign policy, ethical sourcing for data centers, material circularity in construction, the narratives of monuments in underrepresented communities, and ethical decarbonization.
In 2026, Grace Farms announced four new Design for Freedom Pilot Projects, including two international projects and the National Juneteenth Museum. Grace Farms also recognized student leaders who won the 2025 ACSA Design for Freedom Competition for architecture students. More than 550 leaders attended last year’s sold-out Summit, as well as students from 21 colleges and universities nationally.
