À propos de l'auteur

Gihan Karunaratne is an architect and academic with extensive experience teaching and lecturing in architecture, urban design, and interior design across various international contexts. Substantial research and publications on architectural and urban design theory mark his scholarly contributions. Karunaratne's current research addresses the evolving dynamics of architecture and urban environments, focusing on cities undergoing continuous physical, economic, and social transformations. His research frequently examines the intersection of urban life and change, strongly emphasizing marginalized communities. A notable aspect of his work involves an in-depth investigation of the often-overlooked "underbelly" of cities, focusing on the complexities of informal settlements and the communities within them. His unwavering commitment to exploring the challenges and opportunities facing informal urban environments and their inhabitants, particularly in the Global South, inspires and motivates the wider academic and professional community. Through his research, Karunaratne contributes significantly to the discourse on urban transformation, spatial justice, and the lived experiences of underserved populations.
