This folder collects and archives our research of our DSGN-IN residency for the Black Archives.

Documenting lessons from design criticism and a strategic interpretation of inclusive area development/decolonial architecture. Community building and empowerment are central to this. To this end, we reflect on historical, contemporary, international forms of participation and pick up on social discussions around topics such as decolonisation, intersectionality, anti-racism, activism and gentrification. This folder is an account of our project and focuses in its strategy on common (thought) good and collective interests specific to the Bijlmer.
