Alati koje imamo na raspolaganju: Arhitektonska pedagogija nasuprot kataklizmi
The Tools at our Disposal: Architectural Pedagogy in the Face of Calamity

Summary/Abstract: By highlighting a series of formative junctures in Mirna Pedalo’s trajectory as an architectural practitioner, researcher, and scholar, this paper explores what methodological framework, tools, and models used in spatial practice and architectural pedagogy can assist us in generating a milieu founded on the principles of social, spatial, and environmental justice. The threat of climate breakdown, further aggravated by the proliferation of violence and conflicts across the globe, has created an urgency to (re)think how architecture and related disciplines are taught and practiced. With a particular focus on her role as an Architecture and Design Studio Tutor at the School of Architecture, Royal College of Art in London, UK, and as one of the core members of the Architects for Gaza collective, she aims to posit architectural pedagogy as a form of practice in itself. Such a practice, when enacted in accordance with the above-mentioned principles, can equip the current and future generations of architects with forms of knowledge that can help resist and reshape the power relations which have disenfranchised and oppressed certain populations and other-than-human forms of life.
