More than 20% of the world's population, approximately 1.6 billion people, now live in informal urban structures, often on the poverty line. The issue of informal settlements has been a topic of interest to academics, UN agencies and other organizations, and is often viewed from different perspectives.
In 2015, the United Nations (UN) introduced the Seventeen Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to lead to global sustainability. One of these goals, called Sustainable Cities and Communities, addresses urbanization issues and includes a definition of informal settlements. These are characterized as settlements that lack adequate access to basic services, safe and sustainable housing, legal property rights, and often emerge outside of formal planning processes.
The exhibition offers a basic insight into informal settlements in Africa and Asia through the research of PhD students Diana Hodulíková and Peter Preininger. The exhibition also includes works by students under the supervision of Milada Gabrielova from the Department of Imaging, who have been working on the theme of informality during the Winter Term 2024 in the course Graphics and Drawing.
WHEN? 7-24 January 2025
WHERE? Gallery mini, FA BUT, Poříčí 5
The exhibition will also include a guided tour which will take place on Wednesday 15 January 2025 at 4pm.
