Abstract
Place-based strategies are increasingly explored to improve health opportunities, especially for public housing residents. However, most place-based efforts have failed to engage notions of equity, power, and participation in attempts to “revitalize” and re-design “place.” Drawing from critical theory, place-health, geography, and sociology literatures, this chapter introduces the “Placescape”—a framework developed to explicitly engage the sociopolitical mechanisms/forces that make, unmake, and remake residents’ place (and thus place-health experiences/opportunities) over time. The framework includes six core Placescape tenets (PTs): (1) Needs and Opportunities, (2) Mobility and Bounds, (3) Multi-nodal Place, (4) Power in Place(making), (5) Lifecourse in Place, (6) Agency in Place(making). This chapter presents a “pilot test” of the placescape via an intergenerational participatory research project examining place, embodiment, and health among public housing residents. Using a combination of four participatory methods, youth and adult residents documented and mapped 100+ place-based health exposures/opportunities—strongly illustrating/reflecting PTs 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6 while moderately illustrating/reflecting PT 4. This chapter highlights the potential value of intergenerational approaches for deepening/mobilizing resident participation in placemaking processes, and the role of participatory research as resistance/for representation within contested urban spaces.
