BCNUEJ’s research is motivated by a commitment to building more just, inclusive, healthy and sustainable cities, putting equity at the center of urban planning and ensuring that the needs, vulnerabilities, knowledge, and identities of historically marginalized groups are prioritized.
Considering current and emerging inequalities and inequities in urban development and planning, we develop novel research on environmental justice and sustainability that builds on urban planning, policy, and studies in social inequality and development. Building on the theory and methods from urban planning, public policy, urban and environmental sociology, urban geography and public health, we analyze the extent to which urban plans and policy decisions contribute to more just, resilient, healthy, and sustainable cities, and how community groups in distressed neighborhoods contest environmental inequities as a result of urban (re)development processes and policies.
