From outright discrimination through urban renewal to hostile architecture and exclusive zoning, the built environment has historically been used to reinforce inequalities in access to housing, safety, mobility, and opportunity. This presentation introduces the concept of \u201cjustice through design\u201d as a critical framework for confronting this legacy and transforming the way we plan, design, and govern cities. Historical examples, contemporary case studies, and community initiatives in the areas of housing, public spaces, climate resilience, and education show how design can shift from perpetuating injustice to actively redistributing power. Based on lived experience and participatory practice, the lecture explains why justice in design is not optional, but essential to creating inclusive, equitable, and just communities.\r\n&nbsp;\r\nDr. Marie Cecile Kotyk\r\nAssistant Professor \/ Design Justice Research Chair\r\nSchool of Architecture, Planning, and Landscape Architecture (SAPL)\r\nUniversity of Calgary\r\n\u00a0\r\n[vc_column width=\"1\/4\"][vc_column width=\"3\/4\"]\r\n\u00a0Marie Cecile Kotyk is an award-winning urban planner, housing professional, and spatial justice researcher with over 15 years of experience promoting equity in the public and nonprofit sectors. As a leading figure in community-based research and spatial justice, her work addresses the systemic forces that produce racial inequalities in the built environment, particularly for Black, Indigenous, and structurally marginalized communities. Her doctoral research led to the creation of the Black Housing Equity Framework, which aims to combat anti-Black racism in housing policy and design. Through her leadership in creating the UDesign Justice initiative at the University of Calgary, Dr. Kotyk is establishing a transdisciplinary center that brings together academics, community members, and practitioners to co-create equity-focused solutions for spatial, social, and systemic transformation.\r\n\r\nContact\u00a0: Jean-Pierre Chupin, Chaire de recherche du Canada en architecture, concours et qualit\u00e9 (<a href=\"https:\/\/crc.umontreal.ca\/\">CRC-ACQUA<\/a>) + Laboratoire d\u2019\u00e9tude de l\u2019architecture potentielle (<a href=\"https:\/\/leap-architecture.org\/\">LEAP<\/a>)\r\n<\/div><div class=\"item-read-more\" ><a href=\"https:\/\/crc.umontreal.ca\/en\/from-design-injustice-to-design-justice-why-the-built-environment-must-change\/\"  style=\"text-decoration:none;\">Read More<\/a><\/div><\/div><div class='vignette-article' style='height:530px !important;'><a href=\"https:\/\/crc.umontreal.ca\/en\/new-article-published-by-catherine-couturier-for-a-festive-and-inclusive-city\/\"   style=\"text-decoration:none;\"><div class=\"article-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/crc.umontreal.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Image1-800x450.jpg\" \/><\/div><\/a><div class=\"article-type\" ><span>PUBLICATIONS<\/span><\/div><a href=\"https:\/\/crc.umontreal.ca\/en\/new-article-published-by-catherine-couturier-for-a-festive-and-inclusive-city\/\"  style=\"text-decoration:none;\"><div style=\"width:100%;overflow:hidden;\"><h2 class=\"article-title\" style=\"height: 4.8em !important;-webkit-line-clamp: 4 !important;\" >For an inclusive festive city: Article published on the Entretiens Jacques Cartier study day held in Lyon<\/h2><\/div><\/a><div class=\"article-contenu\" >Professor Jean-Pierre Chupin and student Laur\u00e8ne Smith presented UdeM's research on the concept of inclusion in festive activities at the Entretiens Jacques Cartier conference in Lyon.\r\n\r\n\"Montreal and Lyon are both known as festive cities, hosting multiple events each year.

After professional appraisals, letters signed by heritage advocates, requests for review and the active participation of L\u00e9vis residents at public hearings, demolition was approved on December 16. A request for a one-year moratorium did not change the building's fate either. On June 19, at a regular meeting of the municipal council, elected officials voted against accepting the request.

Yet there are few elementary schools, which are essential to inclusive urban development. And for good reason: the traditional model of the single-purpose, low-rise school building, with a large playground at ground level, is at odds with a high-density, high-value environment. The heart of metropolises attracts developers, all the more so as urban planning regulations allow them to erect high-rise buildings, a source of significant revenue. So what kind of school architecture can we imagine for our city centers? And what might it offer schoolchildren?\u201d\r\n\r\n- A. Cormier, A. Par\u00e9 and G.
