Fairville seminar - Collaborative mapping of inequal and rapid urbanization - November 14th





Thursday 14 November, 2.30pm (CET), online seminar


With Ismaila Seye (UrbaSen / Dakar) and Ahmed Zaazaa (NSCE / Cairo)


Moderator : Agnès Deboulet (LAVUE / Université Paris 8 - CNRS)




The Fairville project team invites you to its second public seminar on the theme of collaborative mapping experiences.  With the exponential speed of growth of cities, the rapid urban transition and the increasing pressures on environnement, the detailed and updated mapping of urban space constitutes an important challenge. In that regards, territorial inequalities often result into unequal production of information on urban spaces, especially in precarious neighborhoods.  In very different urban contexts, collaborative mapping experiments (associating technicians, geographers or architects and local communities) make it possible to provide key data in the face of a series of issues: flooding, environmental degradation, precarious urban infrastructure and participatory challenges. This seminar proposes to bring into dialogue original experiences of collaborative mapping, undertaken by members of two organizations of the FAIRVILLE Horizon Europe project : NSCE (Giza - Egypt) and UrbaSen (Dakar - Senegal) organizations.


NSCE is a consulting organization in the field of sustainable development, based in Cairo (Egypt) (https://nsce-inter.com)


Urbasen is a Senegalese association which brings together technicians and professionals around urban issues, working in collaboration with groups of residents in vulnerable urban areas. (https://urbasen.org)


The seminar will take place on Thursday 14 November at 2.30pm (CET), via zoom.
