Territorial Empathy Details
We believe that design should play a key role in addressing the urban issues that most affect marginalized communities. We leverage urbanism, architecture, and data science to generate empathy-based solutions that advance equity around race, climate, and migration.Conflict cannot exist without dehumanization. It fundamentally relies on "othering," the systematic use of a device that demarcates a difference between an "us" and a "them". These devices can range from racial and socioeconomic differentiation. Similarly, territorial conflict is based on the "this is ‘ours' and that is ‘theirs'," phenomenon which is pervasive throughout the built environment. This is evident in neighborhoods, cities, and nation-states. Therefore, the logical antidote to conflict is empathy. If the conflict is spatial, then so too must be empathy. At Territorial Empathy, we aim to spatialize "othering" and identify opportunities for empathy. Through this methodology, we aim to advocate for mediation, equity, and resolution.Territorial Empathy is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization under Federal Tax ID # 83-4145242.
