Counter-mapping the City Virtual Conference

The virtual conference seeks to explore the rich diversity of counter-mapping strategies across the urban world by documenting practices that redefine cartographic power, navigate power-laden urban space and experiment with alternative visions of inhabiting the city. With over 70 papers, posters and creative presentations in 23 panel and plenary sessions spanning two days, the conference aims to bring together scholars, artists, activists, collectives and others interested in and working on diverse counter-mapping practices across the globe.

"The USF has played a crucial role in creating space for urban research that not only moves beyond academic spheres but also values embodied, decolonial, and insurgent ways of knowing. As a queer geographer working in and through the messy, affective terrains of urban India, this Fellowship didn’t just fund my research — it affirmed it. It gave me the courage and capacity to experiment with form, to centre marginal voices, and to hold space for joy, pain, memory, and resistance in my work. I remain in awe of the nurturing, and genuinely transformative support USF continues to offer its Fellows — during, and far beyond, the fellowship period."
