People. Places. Praxis.

The city is not a laboratory.

The Urban Praxis Workshop is an experimental platform for developing tools, methods, and knowledge through informed action. The workshop is a space for the co-creation of knowledge that explores the possibilities and limits of community driven research, training, and action.

If we are testing anything it is the capacity of the university to absorb, adapt and respond to the knowledge of those working and living outside of the institution. It is an attempt to bridge the comparatively rich resource environment of higher education with people making place through resourcefulness in austere conditions. We make tools, process data, provide training, and organize research that is driven by collaboration and the questions that come from daily life and lived
experience.
