Take a step forward [Learning Activity]

We are all equal, but some are more equal than others. In this exercise, participants discover what it means to be someone else in their society. The following topics will be discussed: ● Exclusion and discrimination often start with social inequality. ● The opportunities and limits of empathy. Experience what it is like to belong to a minority group that has fewer opportunities and/or limited health literacy. How might this affect your relationship with a physiotherapist? Understand who people with limited health literacy might be. To what extent can you empathize with them? Which attitude does a physiotherapist need?

Water supply in Cape Town

The potential stress that Cape Town is facing, is a significant shortage of water supply. However, this is not a new challenge for the South-African city, as it experienced the water crisis from 2017/2018. This fact might ease the study case, because the following consequences and problems are known from the crisis that occurred. On the other hand, it also makes the case more interesting: what are the lessons learned from the first crisis? How could this have happened? And should a different approach be maintained if this were to happen again? This report tried to answer these questions, by first examining the effects on the urban network. The following most important stresses and shocks have been found here; the collapse of the sanitation system, straining the health care system. The negative impact on the economy, due to the setback of tourism, agriculture and water taxes. Furthermore, the social inequality in Cape Town would exacerbate as water would become a high-valued product. Secondly, the attempt has been made to answer how the probability of this crisis will change as a result of climate change, which does not give a good prospect. Finally, several possible solutions are investigated, from which a sustainable way of re-using water in combination with the construction of aquifers could be a crucial solution.

Rethink the City: New Approaches to Global and Local Urban Challenges

Learn about today's urban challenges focusing on developing countries, referred to as the Global South. We will debate the benefits associated with three different themes, going beyond traditional urban strategies and policies: Spatial justice - Having fair, inclusive and healthy urban contexts is one of the greatest challenges of cities in emerging economies. Housing Provision and Management - Increasing demand in the Global South calls for alternative approaches in housing provision and management. Sustainable Urban Transitions - In order to transition from our current (unsustainable) system towards a fair and sustainable future we need to pay attention to the social, economic, and cultural context. In the course, we will address questions such as: Is the 'just city' framework applicable to cities with extreme socio-economic inequality? Can community-led housing initiatives provide effective solutions for households in need? How can the transition towards an environmentally sustainable future also be socially just? In this architecture and urban planning course, academic urban planning expertise from TU Delft is used to formulate possible answers to these questions, and is applied in a range of challenging case studies from Latin America, MENA region, Sub-Saharan Africa, South-East Asia, , among others. This course offers you a new perspective to understand and analyse the urban challenges of the Global South. Through a combination of short theoretical lessons, presentation of case studies, testimonies from practitioners and practical assignments you will also learn how to develop a critical perspective about your own urban environment and how to translate this knowledge into analytical tools and innovative urban solutions.

Tales of a t-shirt - Book

This book is the outcome of an experimental research and teaching project, aimed at rethinking how the garments we wear create relationships between producers, designers and wearers. The project has researched these relationships centered on the production of a dedicated t-shirt, designed, produced and put to use by the project partners, who are located in the Netherlands and India. This book provides an overview of the project trajectory, focusing on how the project has facilitated students from the vocational training colleges in Rotterdam (Netherlands) and Erode (India) to engage in co-creation, and encourage conversations on design, materials, labour, social inequality (caste), gender and value. The book is a resource for students and educators working in fashion-related fields at high-school, vocational training and early bachelor degree levels. Integral to the book are a number of short video clips, dedicated to the crucial phases of the process. This book will be a resource for college students and educators who are concerned with the production and use of textiles, particularly in relation to fair trade, circularity and sustainability in the garment industry. It aims to elucidate the textile value network that supports the production of cotton garments, illustrating the processes (designing, farming, ginning, spinning, weaving, dyeing, printing, cut-make-trim, and shipping as well as wearing, customizing, and discarding). It does this by following the production of a long-sleeved, unisex t-shirt co-designed by students in the Netherlands and India. Through videos and photos, as well as texts, the book aims to make this process accessible and engaging to fashion and design students. With the book we aim to raise the awareness of future students in relation to the production of garments by enabling them to follow their peers and colleagues as they participate in the production processes. Moreover, by enabling the students to engage with the stories connected to the diverse people who are involved in the production process and to learn about the challenges they face, we aim to empower the students to become more socially and environmentally conscious fashion designers.
