Environmental and social degradation are closely coupled to power inequity, thus compelling academics, researchers, and practitioners to conceptualize and build sustainable communities and places with these essential elements in mind. Within and between rural and urban communities and places, in developed and developing nations, achieving sustainability demands putting equity rights at the center of planning and implementation.</SPAN></FONT><O:P></O:P></SPAN></P><P class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><SPAN style=""><FONT class="Apple-style-span" size="4"><SPAN class="Apple-style-span"
