This panel discussion will explore how the right to housing—in Los Angeles and globally—isn’t just a political, legal and economic issue, but also an architectural one. What does the right to housing mean in practice? And how can designers contribute? Moderators Dana Cuff (cityLAB UCLA) and Karen Kubey (University of Toronto) will be joined by architect Julie Eizenberg and Professor of Urban Planning Ananya Roy to discuss these urgent questions and examine promising housing models, laying the groundwork for ways forward.
"Architecture and the Right to Housing in Los Angeles" is convened by cityLAB UCLA, UCLA AUD, and Karen Kubey of the University of Toronto John H. Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape, and Design and the Architecture and Housing Justice Lab. This lecture is part of a Pan-American series funded by the Canada Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council, with additional programs in Mexico City, Toronto, New York, Buenos Aires, and São Paulo. Generous support also comes from the Irving Grossman Fund in Affordable Housing, cityLAB UCLA, and Untapped.
