“…The authors find that the incorporation of Maori values and traditions in urban lands and buildings are not just symbolic shifts, rather they are integral to the spiritual and cultural well-being of urban Indigenous peoples and must, therefore, be understood as a key component of any notion of urban spatial justice. Similar issues are raised in Nejad et al's (2020) exploration of the possibilities for urban Indigenous placemaking in Winnipeg, Canada. Indigenous placemaking initiatives provide important symbolic capital that helps empower urban Indigenous peoples, asserts contemporary Indigenous presence, and generates the transformative potential for the future of Indigenous/non-Indigenous relations.…”

With a few notable exceptions, settler-colonial theory has not been applied to the study of U.S. cities and urban planning. Settler-colonial theory is a relatively new field of scholarship that interrogates the destruction of Indigenous laws, ways of knowing, and connections to place to make way for a new settler futurity. This futurity is particularly pronounced in cities, where Indigenous peoples have been rendered almost completely invisible and where their opportunities to shape urban development are highly circumscribed. We use settler-colonial theory, as well as Indigenous scholars' responses to it, to extend ideas of belonging and becoming in urban planning and placemaking. We turn to the theory and practice of co-production as one possible intervention into how the relationships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous placemakers could be conceived and enacted in the urban environment.. . . to think of the United States as a settler society illuminates forms of power that organize American and American Indian lives in perhaps unexpected ways.

“…Programmatic interiority emerge from the activities typically performed in the interior environment (Teston, 2020). An indigenous village like Sade has good potential to empower the areas through cultural representation (Nejad et al, 2020). The commercial corridors areas are bounded by residents' houses; in this way, the programmatic interiority is formed from the functions and activities in the commercial area adjacent to the corridor and merged into the commercial corridors due to unclear boundaries or porous thresholds (Teston, 2020).…”

This study aims to find and define interiority as an initiative to preserve culture and traditions in Sade Village, Lombok Island, a tourist area in Indonesia. This study adopted qualitative research with the case study method, recording several data sources through field observation, literature studies, archives, and in-depth interviews with community leaders. This study identifies the typology of areas that create psychological, form-based, atmospheric, and programmatic interiority (Teston, 2020) in various configurations. This study found the types of interiorities in Sade Village that contribute to the corridor’s uniqueness, visitors’ feeling of insideness, and the area’s maintenance. Five categories of interiority, namely psychological, form-based, atmospheric, programmatic, and narrative interiority were found in the corridor of Sade Village. The finding on narrative interiority refers to the philosophy of social life of the local community, producing interiority by the meaningful ancient tradition and local beliefs. This study would contribute to increasing awareness of the inherent cultural values of Sade Village to strengthen the image of the area and its tourism potential.

“…Using an intersectional perspective (Crenshaw, 1991), it is important to ensure that all students, not just those from dominant identities, are able to contribute to the design of space. An example of a community-based, strengths-focused approach to designing spaces is creative placemaking , a concept focused on the ways that the intentional and collaborative design of space can support a community’s well-being, particularly for Black (Edwards, 2017) and indigenous (Nejad et al, 2020) communities. On college campuses, it is important for students with various identities to have the opportunity to contribute to the design of safe, welcoming spaces.…”

As a part of socio-ecological approaches to campus sexual violence prevention, there is a call for greater attention to the role of the environment. Despite this, physical space, an aspect of the built environment, is understudied. There is a lack of models for the ways physical space can help facilitate prevention efforts on campus. Disciplines such as criminology have put forth theories such as crime prevention through environmental design, which offer a foundation for application to college campuses but which require modification. The current model draws from reviews of research, theory, and critiques of work on the prevention and the physical environment to present a strengths-centered, social justice–based model for campuses to incorporate the consideration of physical spaces into sexual violence prevention planning.
