Saint Henri Walking Tour 2019 : Mapping Stories of Shaughnessy Village
April 11th - 11th, 2019The Walking Tour of St. Henri is an opportunity for students to step outside the classroom and to consider key concepts in geography in relation to their physical surroundings. The tour weaves together historical events and contemporary conversations, focusing on issues of urban planning, inequality, housing, gentrification, community-building and activism in the neighborhood of St. Henri. Ultimately, the tour encourages students to reflect on their own neighborhoods and communities, and the role we can all play in supporting positive and inclusive neighborhood development throughout the City of Montreal. This walking tour will be a component of the Learning Communities course pairing (intro to geography/research methods): Mapping Stories of Shaughnessy Village.
