The Impact of Gentrification on Urban Cultural Landscapes

FAQ About The Impact of Gentrification on Urban Cultural Landscapes

How does gentrification affect indigenous cultural landscapes in urban settings?

Gentrification can have profound impacts on indigenous cultural landscapes by altering places of historical and spiritual significance and displacing indigenous populations. This can lead to the erasure of indigenous cultural practices and historical narratives within urban settings. Efforts to mitigate these effects include advocating for land rights, promoting indigenous-led urban planning, and ensuring representation in cultural and historical preservation efforts.
