The ecologies of the marginalised, everyday socio-environmental struggles in São Paulo’s peripheries

Dr Lucas Lerchs presents research on housing exclusion and environmental crisis in São Paulo’s ecological reserves; Dr Giovanna Astolfo chairs, followed by a 30-minute documentary screening.

The talk examines how everyday inhabitation and displacement shape contested urban ecologies in São Paulo. The source describes the documentary as filmed in the city’s periphery and identifies the programme as a Bartlett Development Planning Unit dialogue.
