Liberated Land Trusts
A Podcast Series by Untitled Planning x CNCLT
June 2024 - October 2024
Untitled Planning presents the Liberated Land Trusts podcast series, a 5-part exploration of how Community Land Trusts (CLTs) empower communities, protect cultural heritage, and support local economies. In partnership with the Canadian Network of Community Land Trusts (CNCLT), this series is part of a larger effort to mobilize research on Black-led, Black-serving, and Black-focused CLTs in Canada. By sharing insights from the Liberated Land Trust Tour—where leaders visited CLTs in the U.S. to exchange strategies—the podcast highlights how CLTs can create equitable and resilient communities while advancing the research needed to expand their impact.
