IDEASTREAM ENGAGED AND INFORMED COMMUNITYMEMBERS ABOUT CRITICAL ISSUES.

Greater Cleveland is one of the country’s most segregated metro areas. It is a region

characterized by persistent poverty among African-Americans, with generations of

disadvantaged families essentially “stuck in place.” With few exceptions, there are

predominantly black neighborhoods and predominantly white neighborhoods. This divide

has serious consequences for everyone, relating to education, health, taxes, wealth-building,

crime and more.

Through its series Divided by Design, ideastream looked at

how the region came to be this way and why it matters.

Segments from the series became part of a an interactive

exhibit, Undesign the Redline, at Mt. Pleasant NOW

Development Corporation.

The exhibit explored the history of race, class and United

States’ housing policies. Users had the opportunity to

interact with the stories and invent the future by undoing

structural inequities. To date, 1,000 attendees have visited

the exhibit.

IDEAS PROGRAMMINGThe Ideas family of companion programming delivered a

comprehensive analysis of news and offered in-depth explorations

of critical community issues through the television program Ideas on

LISTENING TO THE COMMUNITY. LOOKING FOR WHAT MATTERS.

Each year since 2001, ideastream has invited communities to share what matters most to

them by participating in The Listening Project (LP). Through online surveys and public

forums, participants have reflected, responded and offered invaluable perceptions about

living in the region. ideastream has used this community feedback to shape programs and

services across its multimedia platforms and to inform civic engagement, educational

initiatives and partnership development.

GREAT LAKESTo help inform its reporting through Great Lakes Today, a regional journalism collaborative, ideastream gained a better understanding of the community’s interests, concerns and priorities about the environment and the Great Lakes.

HEART HEALTHIn advance of a series of reports on cardiovascular disease by ideastream’s Be Well health unit, ideastream received insight on the perceptions of and actions related to good heart health management throughout our communities.

“When I saw a photo taken in space of our Great Lake and could see the algae blooms, I realized that we are killing something that is necessary for life. We need to control pesticides and fertilizers before it is too late.”

“I’m interested in prevention efforts targeted towards economically distressed communities in order to better address the social determinants behind the prevalence of heart disease in these communities.”
