Pedagogies of territorial reparation
Co-producing ‘Neighborhoods of Peace’ in Medellin’s Territorial Planning
4 August 2023
- Aims and outcomes
The outcomes will have impacts on three spheres:
1) The realm of territorial planning by bringing an innovative approach to link spatial and reparative justice in tandem;
2) The mechanisms of collaboration between academic partners and local state by bringing public pedagogy and planning co-production with victims of conflict and ex-combatants jointly in an unprecedented approach for local public policy makers;
3) It also offers a platform to work across governance scales to disseminate the findings of previous research work that has policy relevance in the formulation of public policies related to peace and territorial planning. The premise of the proposal is that a recalibrated ’neighbourhood upgrading’ strategy based on grassroots planning and multi-scale governance support is at the forefront of territorial reparation, peacebuilding, and reconciliation in Colombian cities.
