The approach takes into account issues of spatial justice and the multiplicity of values inherent in the experience of place. I will exemplify the approach by drawing from case studies involving extended engagements with communities and institutions concerned with the future of their localities. I will reflect on\u0026nbsp;the tensions arising from working between communities and institutions and on the \u0026lsquo;work\u0026rsquo; needed to make room for spaces where people can formulate values and rights of communal living. I will (in)conclude with open questions on the role of HCI research committed to developing participatory processes that align with and aspire to principles of Spatial Justice and the \u0026lsquo;Right to the City\u0026rsquo;.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ESpeaker Bio:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EClara is a designer and research associate at Newcastle University\u0026rsquo;s Open Lab working on the Digital Civics Initiative. \u0026nbsp;With a background in Arts \u0026amp; Design and Socially Engaged Arts practice, her research explores interaction design methods, tools and participatory processes to support forms of social activism in and for the everyday politics of place-making.
