Just Sustainable Cities: Perspectives from Post-Socialist Eurasia

Utbildningsfakta

Kod: 2EU022

This course introduces you to theoretical and methodological tools from the fields of justice, urban studies, and sustainable development, in order to provide synergetic approaches to the study of equality in sustainable cities. You learn to analyse contemporary societal challenges caused by the intersection of climate change, sustainable development, growing inequality, increasing migration and urbanisation. We discuss empirical examples relevant to post-socialist Eurasia to address questions, such as: through what processes the sustainable city is created, which population groups are vulnerable in the green transition, what is the role of information in city space production, and how sustainable cities create secure spaces for human and non-human residents in a rapidly changing climate? During a practical research assignment, students train in small groups how to work and produce knowledge together with local stakeholders in order to design solutions to real-life challenges.
