URBAN INJUSTICES
NORMATIVE IDEAS AND PRACTICES
Feb 13-15, 2023
The Workshop
This interdisciplinary workshop seeks to establish a forum for novel academic debates by associating concepts and theories in contemporary political philosophy with empirical claims raised by groups that suffer urban injustices and with normative justifications for fairer and more egalitarian cities.
​
The event will address ongoing discussions on urban injustices in Brazil and in other countries and pursue methodological gains for theoretical research on urban studies and public policymaking.

The Brazilian Center for Analysis and Planning (CEBRAP) was founded in 1969 by a group of professors expelled from Brazilian universities by the military dictatorship. Since its inception, CEBRAP has been acting as a major free-thinking forum for knowledge production in Brazil, fostering the work of many of the country’s leading researchers and intellectuals in the social and human sciences.
