The 8 80 Cities Connection

Gil is the Founder & Chair of 8 80 Cities. After many years running the organization as Executive Director, he now serves as Chair of the Board of Directors.

8 80 Cities, Gil Penalosa & Associates, and Cities for Everyone, work closely on some projects when they require combined efforts.

Our mission is to ignite action and challenge the status quo
to create healthier, more equitable, and sustainable cities for all people.

We are guided by the simple but powerful idea that if everything
we do in our cities is great for an 8 year old and an 80 year old,
then it will be better for all people.
