Por uma adaptação antirracista - 14ᵃ Bienal Internacional de Arquitetura de São Paulo

The debate discusses initiatives to address, from a climate perspective, vulnerabilities and inequalities that permeate territories: food insecurity, police violence, health, access to education and culture, and the right to the city. What institutional arrangements are important? How can we create co-governance spaces at the territorial level? How can we understand the dimensions of inequality already present in a territory when it suffers from extreme weather? With Rodrigo Jesus, Diosmar Filho, and Gisele Moura.

Gisele Moura
Environmental scientist with 15 years of experience in climate justice, peripheral territories, and public policy. She coordinated a socio-environmental technology network mobilizing more than 900 people and 300 initiatives in Rio de Janeiro's favelas, and represented community-based voices in spaces such as COP27 and the G20. She is a consultant for the Sustainable Urban Development Network (ReDUS) for COP30 and has contributed to publications such as "Nature-Based Solutions in the Peripheries" by the Ministry of Cities. She works at the interface between ancestral knowledge, social technology, and co-governance, arguing that climate adaptation must be anti-racist, intersectional, and territorially rooted.

NOTE OF CONDOLENCE

With deep sorrow, the Brazilian Institute of Architects – São Paulo Department (IABsp) mourns the passing of architect and landscape architect Kongjian Yu, a global leader in ecological urbanism, and the members of his team who accompanied him, tragically killed during the filming of a documentary. The institute is honored to have had him as a participant in the 14th São Paulo International Architecture Biennial, where his transformative vision strengthened the dialogue between global challenges and local realities. IABsp emphasizes that Yu's contribution, which transcends borders, will remain an inspiration for generations and expresses its condolences to China, to the families of all the deceased, to his friends, and to all those impacted by his genius and dedication.
