Is Barcelona for Everyone? Housing, Mobility and Urban Justice 🏡
What to expect 🏡💚
Barcelona is often celebrated as a vibrant and livable city – but who is the city really for? This talk explores key challenges shaping Barcelona today, including gentrification, the lack of public housing, and the dominance of cars in urban space. Looking at housing, mobility, and infrastructure through a social and intersectional lens, we will discuss why public housing is essential to tackle displacement and how more just and sustainable urban mobility could look like.
This talk will be given by David Bravo, an architect dedicated to deliberating and debating urban challenges such as the public space, the right to housing and the right to the city. He is a founding member of the international consulting firm Urban Front and the interdisciplinary team responsible for the ATRI.city strategy, which provides cities with affordable housing systems to combat gentrification. Between 2015 and 2019, he was also an advisor to the mayor of Barcelona as head of the municipal strategy to prevent gentrification.
The talk will conclude with an open discussion about possible paths toward a city that truly works for everyone.
🗣️ This event will be held in English.
About this community 📣💚
For rights, against wrongs. We clamour for universal human and environmental rights — and a peaceful, sustainable future for all!
CLAMOUR is a growing community of people who feel that the current system isn’t working and who want to imagine, discuss, and build something better together.
In a world shaped by rising fascism, climate collapse, and growing inequality, many of us feel overwhelmed or powerless. CLAMOUR exists to create space for something different. A space to come together, to learn, listen, share, reflect and organise. We believe that change starts from the roots — and that community itself is a form of resistance. ✊
Our community spans generations and backgrounds. Our youngest member is 18, our oldest is 93. We come from many nationalities and cultures, and from a wide range of professional paths including students, journalists, teachers, architects, activists, entrepreneurs, and retirees. This diversity is at the heart of CLAMOUR.
We welcome anyone who feels concerned, curious, exhausted, hopeful or simply wants to connect with others who care about a more just and sustainable future. You don’t need to have answers. You just need to show up as you are.
