The research will explore the factors governing the urbanlives of people seeking asylum in London. Usingparticipatory and visual methods, it will identify significanturban spaces and understand how they facilitate and inhibitopportunities for social connectivity, health and wellbeingagainst the constraints of legal status and an intentionallyexclusionary asylum system. Focusing on the livedexperiences of refused and current asylum seekers in twoLondon boroughs, it will explore the spatial dimensions ofurban inclusion and exclusion - from uses of public spacessuch as urban greenspace, squares and the streets toaccessible semi-public spaces such as cafes, libraries andcommunity centres - and how asylum seekers employeveryday tactics to subvert and resist the effects ofprecarious legal status and exclusionary policy whichmanifest psychologically and in the built environment. Itseeks to theorise urban spaces as sites of refuge,resistance and hostility and conceptualise how socio-legalconstraints manage and regulate the urban lives of asylumseekers.

这项研究将探讨影响伦敦寻求庇护者城市生活的因素。利用参与式和视觉化的方法，它将确定重要的头巾空间，并了解它们如何促进和抑制社会联系、健康和福祉的机会，而不受法律地位和故意排他性庇护制度的限制。该项目聚焦于伦敦两个行政区被拒者和目前寻求庇护者的生活经历，将探索城市包容和排斥的空间维度——从公共空间的使用，如城市绿地、广场和街道，到可进入的半公共空间，如咖啡馆，图书馆和社区中心——以及寻求庇护者如何利用日常策略来颠覆和抵制不稳定的法律地位和排他政策的影响，这些政策在心理上和建筑环境中都表现出来。它试图将城市空间理论化为避难、抵抗和敌意的场所，并概念化社会法律约束如何管理和规范寻求庇护者的城市生活。
