Working Together as Regional Scientists: A Forward-Looking Retrospective

Abstract

Several past presidents of the Southern Regional Science Association (SRSA) have used the occasion of the presidential address to reflect on the past and contemplate the future of both the association and regional science more broadly. In this paper, I revisit a group of addresses focused on the relevance and broader impact of regional science, touching on how regional scientists came together, how they have remained together, and how they can continue to work together for collective success.
