In Part 1 Professor Beth Perry proposed an agenda around ‘urban epistemics’, key issues for future study and how these connect across the Urban Institute’s research themes. Three responses were then given by Professor Michele Lancione, Dr Linda Westman and Aïcha Diallo who connected their own work to the theme of urban epistemics and suggest new topics for enquiry.
In Part 2 the participants worked collectively in two spaces – in-person and online – to generate collective propositions and questions for the field of urban epistemics.
