About this event:
Are you wondering about how SDGs play into the city design process? This Brown Bag Lunch invites collective reflection on the concept of Right to the City and current decision-making processes in city development. We’ll learn about mechanisms for addressing SDGs related to housing issues in Canada and how we can amplify the silenced voices of marginalized communities during the city design process.
Firdous Nizar is a Ph.D. student and founder of Spacial Retrace, a research-creation practice that explores new ways of learning and unlearning architecture for future city designs. Her research lies at the intersection of design, architectural education, and journalism in order to reimagine existing modes of communication and collaboration in the construction industry. She has a Bachelor’s degree in Architecture and Urban Design and a Master’s degree in Design.
