Property, Housing, and Land: Pillars or Barriers of Restorative Justice?

Part of the “Restorative Justice in the Built Environment” Interdisciplinary Dialogue Series. Open to all students, faculty, and staff at MAPP+D, across the University of Maryland, College Park, the Lakeland community, and the larger community.

Overview

The final session of the Dialogue Series will discuss how regimes of property are at the heart of housing and land contestations as they anchor conceptions of rights, sustainability, and humans’ relationship to the more-than-human world.

• How are they currently conceived vs. how could they be reconceived in a restorative-just built environment?
