3 ciudades, 3 hallazgos: nuestro #StoryMap en #ArcGIS examina las #PeriferiasVerticales en 🇨🇴 y cómo la política de vivienda impulsa una densificación desigual en los márgenes urbanos. 🗺️ Diseño: Federico Arévalo 🔗storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/995920… @CITY_at_YorkU @YorkUEUC @CiderUniandes

¿Qué hizo posible las manzanas de cuidado de Bogotá? Salió y lo pasamos por email si no tienen acceso. Making the state care: the role of political willingness and brokerage in Bogota’s new feminist care policy: City 👇🏼 tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Con un análisis simple, la gran mayoría de los bogotanos estamos cerca de muchos servicios básicos (a un máx 15min🚶🚶‍♀️). Pero más allá de la proximidad, una ciudad de 15min implica un territorio equilibrado con prioridad para diversas oportunidades, lo cual aún está por lograr👇

I'm excited to share my first dissertation paper, which looks at the arrival of corporate landlords in Latin America, specifically analyzing the Chilean case! Check it out here! 👇 @JUAurban tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Ayer @LuisaSotomayorA y @ahurtadot presentaron los primeros resultados del proyecto @verticalperi en @LASACONGRESS. Una presentacion increíble sobre algo que debería estar preocupándonos un poco más 🔽

If you’re in #LASA2024 and are curious about cohosting an episode of #Sur_Urbano, DM us or @ipenarandac to chat and learn more!

Housing should be good quality and accessible for everyone - inspiring, comforting, life giving - and we should remake our political economic systems until we have that. Not presume that poor people might "choose" to live in substandard housing because of the "market."

6/💡 Stay Tuned: For updates, findings, and project discussions. Make sure to follow our account and join the conversation! @UNHABITAT @radicalhousing @leilanifarha @raquelrolnik @CarlosMorenoFr @rafagaf @YorkUEUC @Global_suburbs @MinVivienda @YorkUniversity @Uniandes

5/ 🌐 Global Relevance: By examining Colombia's approach, we hope to contribute valuable insights to the global debate on #AffordableHousing, including lessons for Canada and beyond. #Right2Housing #HousingForAll #SDG11

4/ 🌍 Policy Impact: While commercially successful and internationally praised, the effects on governance, planning, and residents' well-being remain unclear. We aim to assess whether these #VerticalPeripheries are inclusive, livable and sustainable places to live.

1/ 📢 Welcome to our new account! We are excited to introduce #VerticalPeripheries: an interdisciplinary research project at @CITY_at_YorkU and @CiderUniandes funded by @SSHRC_CRSH🇨🇦to examine the territorialized effects of Colombia's market-based housing policy (#ViviendaVIS).

3/ 📊 Case Studies: We investigate how commodified, large-scale social housing is restructuring urban borders in #Bogota #Barranquilla & #Medellin. Each city offers unique scenarios in size, sociopolitics, & econ. devmt., providing a comprehensive view of implementation.

2/ 🏢Since 2012, Colombia has tackled housing needs through partially subsidized low-cost apartments built by private companies. As a result, the lives of millions of Colombians now unfold in standardized verticality at the city's fringes🌇🏙️🌆.
