Autorenporträt

Andrea Rigon is an Associate Professor at the Bartlett Development Planning Unit of University College London and a founder of the Sierra Leone Urban Research Centre. His professional and research work focuses on how power relations affect the participation of different people and social groups in decision-making processes. He is particularly interested in how residents' participation is managed within urban development projects, particularly in informal settlements, and what the effects are on in/equality and social exclusion. He has worked to include an intersectional perspective into participatory design and to incorporate participatory approaches in the drafting and implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals. His latest project was about co-designing built interventions with children affected by displacement. Vanesa Castán Broto is Professor of Climate Urbanism at the Urban Institute, University of Sheffield. Her current research focuses on the governance of climate change in urban areas, the politics of urban transitions, and the potential for delivering sustainable and just cities through planning and activism. She is the Principal Investigator of the projects Low Carbon Action in Ordinary Cities, funded by the European Research Council, and Community Energy and Sustainable Energy Transitions in East Africa, funded by the UK's Global Challenges Research Fund. Her latest books are Urban Energy Landscapes (2019) and Urban Sustainability and Justice (2019).
