Housing and Urban Commons is funded by Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Program (2022) and aims to strengthen theoretical, methodological, ethical and professional skills on the sustainable 21st-century city and the SDGs.

Grounded in Lefebvre’s “right to the city” and recent work on the urban commons, it promotes socially sustainable, bottom-up approaches to participatory placemaking. The programme combines lectures, collaborative workshops and neighborhood field visits, with participants completing a five-day mobility period in Lisbon, Coimbra and Porto, complemented by a mandatory virtual component contributing to the overall learning outcomes.
