Visit to the Case Study - Area of Luz, São Paulo, Brazil

On the 9th May, representatives of the 'Re-inhabiting the City' team across the University of Nottingham, University of Birmingham and Universidade de São Paulo have visited the area of Luz, in São Paulo, Brazil. The team was able to get to know the area and understand the challenges Luz faces.

In the Luz area, the team also visited the Mungunza Container Theatre, which is a theatre company that offers artistic and educational activities to the local community. The Theatre was built in a public plot of the city and through a collaboration with the public authorities, the organisation was able to re-occupy a previous cut, deprived and vacant area of Luz. More information about the Mungunza Container Theatre can be found at: www.ciamungunza.com.br/conteiners.
