I am trying to understand if and how planners can help empower migrants by intervening on the built form. I am familiar with works by, for example, Jeffrey Hou and Fran Tonkiss. I wonder if someone wrote more specifically about how immigrants use a city's public spaces and what interventions might be done to facilitate self-empowerment. Thank you!
