Jorge, Sílvia | 2007-2020

Silvia Jorge | 08/2007 - 05/2020 . Architect with a Master’s degree in Architecture and Rehabilitation of Urban Centers, and with a PhD in Urbanism, from the Lisbon School of Architecture of the University of Lisbon (LSA-UL). I am a researcher of the Centre for Innovation in Territory, Urbanism and Architecture of the Instituto Superior Técnico of the University of Lisbon (CiTUA/IST-UL). My research assumes an interdisciplinary approach, dialoguing between Architecture, Urbanism and Social Sciences, and has focused on the urban margins of different contexts (Portugal, Brazil, Angola, Mozambique). My work and contribution in various collective research projects have been developing among four thematic axes: 1. (self)production of space and its urban inequalities; 2. urban/housing policies and urbanistic tools; 3. urban typologies and intervention paradigms; 4. right to housing, right to the city and spatial justice. I have (co)author various articles in (inter)national journals and chapter books, as well as participated and organised several scientific meetings on my research themes.
