Gentrification: What's the alternative

What is the cost of displacement through gentrification? What are the alternatives in the context of the private rental boom? How do we genuinely level up while renewing urban places, and ensure existing communities feel the benefit? Recorded live at the Festival of Place, we hear from Prof. Loretta Lees, an urban geographer and scholar-activist who wrote the book on gentrification and Alisha Morenike Fisher, Founding-Director of Migrant’s Bureau, a social design and urbanism practice for Black, disenfranchised & migrant communities.
