\nAbstract<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

From mining of raw materials to soil sealing, waste production, real estate speculation\u2014the construction industry, together with its complex web of other, surrounding extractive domains, contributes to the staggering 40% of the current global CO2 emissions, thus also perpetuating different social, spatial, and environmental inequalities. Starting from here, this talk will frame care, repair, and maintenance, as foundations for a new spatial practice in the context of climate change. Drawing from the collaborative research, design, curatorial, and pedagogical work developed at the ±¬ÁϳԹÏÍø, the talk will consider alternative approach to architectural and urban planning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
