Considering praxis and actions to create change where \u003ci\u003ecare\u003c\/i\u003e is central, it asks: \u003ci\u003ewhat happens if we bring intersectionality to the picture of diversity in architecture – through media, education, practice? How can affective solidarity and relationality foster change?
