32. INDIGENOUS URBANISM AND YOUTH: fluid geographies in Latin America, +Ceuta, +cats and dogs, +marine heatwaves, +population surge and more

In this month's episode, Beth and Tom mark World Indigenous Peoples' Day and the International Day of Youth with Dr Philipp Horn, School of Geography and Planning, University of Sheffield. Drawing on Philipp's work with Indigenous youth from the Bolivian cities of El Alto, Santa Cruz, Sucre and Rurrenabaque, they challenge stereotypes of indigenous lives, highlighting fluid geographies and mobilities between urban and rural areas. Together they discuss Indigenous claims to the city, how young Indigenous people navigate urban life and what indigenous epistemology and practice can offer urban studies.Also on the radarHow strategic and local authorities are responding to the new guidance on what 'sex' means in the Equalities Act 2010Why border cities are geopolitical flashpoints: a look at Ceuta in contextWhat feral cats in Seoul and dogs in Istanbul tell us about more-than-human urban developmentHow marine heatwaves impact coastal cities and communitiesHow population surges and shrinkages shape urban politics around the worldWhether urban glitches, like a solar eclipse, disrupt the 24-hour cityGuest: Philipp Horn is Senior Lecturer in the School of Geography and Planning at the University of Sheffield, UK.
