UC Louvian, Université Paris Nanterre, Université Paris 1, EHESS, ENS
This conference follows on from a previous initiative—the Squatting Europe/Everywhere Kollective (SqEK)—which brought together international researchers between 2009 and 2018 and led to a number of conferences and publications.
The aim is to continue and expand upon the work initiated by SqEK, by addressing not only the occupation of buildings but also land and other types of property. Our focus extends beyond Europe to include squats and occupations across the globe.
The first Squat All Over the World conference seeks to bring together researchers from across the Global North and South to build an international research network on squatting in its broadest sense. Over the course of two days, we will explore a wide range of occupation practices, including squats, informal settlements, self-managed social centers, ZADs, and other forms of land or housing occupation.
Beyond this two-day event, our ambition is to develop a transnational research network on the topic of occupation. We warmly invite you to join us by submitting a presentation proposal!
