Ciclo ‘Uncertain Homes, Precarious Lives. The Changing Forms and Drivers of Housing Vulnerability’

Urban Housing vulnerability is one of the main challenges of contemporary times, metropoles and towns all around Europe. The recent pandemic crisis has exacerbated a longstanding crisis, increasing the facets of urban precariousness even in those cities traditionally less impacted by the most visible forms of housing vulnearbility, exclusion and discomfort. In the Urban Planning & Sociology integrated course, we explore the geographies and structures of this ongoing process and the methodologies depolyed to investigate them. Within this framework, we propose four public seminars to explore some impacts and factors of housing vulnerability. The seminars will be held on Wednesday and Friday morning and can be attended online by external users.
