Indigenous spatial justice

"Spatial justice requires questioning about which filters, worldviews and perspectives are being considered in the design of a space – or indeed the deconstruction or dismantling of a space. If it does not include the perspectives of those who belong to the land, it is unjust," writes Danièle Hromek.

“Spatial justice requires questioning about which filters, worldviews and perspectives are being considered in the design of a space – or indeed the deconstruction or dismantling of a space. If it does not include the perspectives of those who belong to the land, it is unjust,” writes Danièle Hromek.

“Spatial justice” is about what is fair and good in relation to the distribution of spaces between all who use them.
