Abstract

This plan refers to the exploration and investigation part of the qualitative dimensions of the research, specifically with the "case studies" phase, which begins in the Thematic Project from the 6th semester of the Project, after the exploratory research and mapping phases, as presented in the general schedule of the Thematic Project and throughout the body of the project text. To support this stage of the research, we are looking for a student of architecture and urbanism or social sciences who is able to carry out fieldwork focusing on the production and management of urban space, especially in situations of populations and territories "at risk", especially at the beginning and in the structuring of this stage of the Thematic's qualitative research. The fieldwork will be accompanied and supervised by other more experienced researchers from the project who are also responsible for the field research.
