Place

Dedicated the day to interrogating place.

How do we make a conference room in the World Trade Center Mumbai into a child-friendly classroom? How do we configure this classroom to express our values, support our process, and facilitate our desired outcomes? How do we understand and negotiate our relationships with one another — in this space, in the social hierarchy? To what extent does acceptance of prevailing notions signify respect or complicity? Who’s the cultural imperialist if our solution is to impose our own perspectives and customs?

Just what is our place? Who decides?
