Makāna

makāna’ is a research action collective working towards spatial and social justice in Jordanian cities. The seeds of makāna were sown by three architects, engaged in diverse paths in the field, who felt a profound responsibility towards their local community, and were driven by a shared vision for more socially just and inclusive spaces in our cities. makāna sits at the intersection of activism and research for just urban places and engages with issues of social and spatial justice, self-organization, dialogue, experimentation, and imagination. Beyond the pursuit of capitalist gain, makāna’s purpose lies in working towards co-creating spaces in the city, and championing the right to city-making in Jordan. makāna aims to open space for and to nurture dialogue about current issues regarding the politics of urban spaces, in addition to working with communities, activists, researchers, and artists alike, to nurture dialogue, and foster the co-creation of urban spaces that reflect the needs and aspirations of the people.
