Downsizing Detroit

TIME magazine explores how private foundations are working with Detroit’s city government in innovative ways to bring about change in the dilapidated metro area.  This highlights the shifting nature of public-private partnerships and I think foreshadows the future of how government and other entities will interact.  As a public policy student, I’m excited to see that working for the government directly is no longer the only way to enact change and that the future — in my opinion — lies in these collaborative partnerships.
