Cohabitation, connivences et antagonismes en situation de ‘nouvelles’ mixités urbaines

This collaborative and multidisciplinary research project started in 2013 for a 30-month period thanks to a grant from the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF). Undertaken jointly the Graduate Institute and the University of Geneva, this project examined three neighborhoods in Geneva and focused on the economic activity, community-based associations, and ceremonial links between the residents of these heavily multicultural areas. Comparative studies were also carried out in multicultural neighborhoods in Paris, Athens and Rotterdam.
