23.09.08 - University of Toronto’s Geography and Planning | Intersections Speaker Series | MOBILITIES

This year’s Intersections Series will be centered on the broad theme of ‘MOBILITIES’. The concept highlights many different geopolitical and geophysical processes, and offers an opportunity to think through how ‘mobility’ often signifies the stuff of change, struggle and renewal - of landscapes, lives and livelihoods.
