Temporalities of lead toxicity
This article critiques how established developmental theories can account for the intergenerational transmission of environmental harm, with lead exposure as a paradigmatic case of racialised, cumulative and temporally layered toxicity. While existing research has identified prenatal, childhood and multi-generational pathways of exposure, developmental theories largely presume single-generation, individual-level pollution exposures and therefore …

Mapping sustainability in higher education institutions
Reflections on a healthy discipline
This article introduces a special section comprising papers examining the evolution, current state and potential futures of the subdiscipline of health geography. Geographers’ engagement with ‘health’ has transformed from a strict rooting in the ‘(bio)medical’, coinciding with, and contributing to, a paradigm shift emphasising a recognition of health as multifaceted and shaped by everyday experiential spatial practices, rhythms and identities. Th…
The chaos of not knowing
The US Department of Housing and Urban Development has instituted several successive programs to redevelop aging and distressed US public housing. The current program, the Choice Neighborhoods Initiative, aims not only to redevelop housing but also to improve the health of public housing residents through a whole neighborhood transformation, at the cost of privatizing components of housing. In the present case study, we examine relationships and …
Under lockdown
This paper examines how poor urban residents in the Sun Valley public housing community in Denver, CO (US) experienced the pandemic during the first few months of the crisis. Employing a framework that focuses on people, community, housing and home as potential spaces and possibilities of “infrastructures of care”, this research examines the strategies and practices that emerged during the pandemic to address the immediate needs and concerns of t…

More private than public
Through the Choice Neighborhoods Initiative (CNI), private investors and developers replace distressed US public housing with new mixed-income and mixed-use developments. Although these projects promote community involvement and are purported to prioritize community input and to benefit residents, private investors have disproportionate power and often modify redevelopment to favor the market-rate units while receiving tax incentives, extremely l…
Collaborative research for transitioning to Climate-Neutral Cities – contouring a prospective framework for integrated planning
Transitioning to climate-neutral cities is difficult in practice, depending on complex urban activities and involving a vast range of stakeholders. Cities need ongoing support for assessing and implementing climate-neutral solutions. Following multi-country, collaborative academic workshops on this topic, we debate the use of new technologies and integrated planning approaches. We contour a preliminary framework underpinned by five key dimensions…
When top-down infrastructures fail
Throughout this article, we focus on the lives and experiences of residents in the Sun Valley public housing project in Denver. During the stay-at-home orders, the Sun Valley residents – an economically impoverished yet diverse community that includes refugees, Black and LatinX families, single-parent households, and individuals who are permanently disabled – faced extremely precarious conditions. COVID exposed and exacerbated the already failed …
Measuring Robustness and Coverage of Transportation Networks with Multiple Routes and Hubs
Robustness, or the resilience of a system to failures and attacks without changing its mode of operation, is an increasingly important characteristic of networks. Even though there are several measures of network robustness, they are not applicable to networks with several links between the same pair of nodes (multiline networks), such as transportation systems. A local index and a set of global indexes are introduced to capture the robustness of…
Community-Engaged Regenerative Mapping in an Age of Displacement and Covid-19
Displacement is detrimental not only to displaced individuals and families but also to the communities left behind and their ability to collectively resist and mobilize against global processes that negatively affect their ability to engage in practices of resilience and regeneration that support well-rooted communities. Critical approaches to the study of displacement should not only focus on mapping vulnerability factors and analyzing dominant …
Coupling data science with community crowdsourcing for urban renewal policy analysis
We estimate the cost and impact of a proposed anti-displacement program in the Westside of Atlanta (GA) with data science and machine learning techniques. This program intends to fully subsidize property tax increases for eligible residents of neighborhoods where there are two major urban renewal projects underway, a stadium and a multi-use trail. We first estimate household-level income eligibility for the program with data science and machine l…
