Founded by Farida Rady, terrain and text weaves together academic texts and everyday experience, creating collective learning spaces that are curious, forgiving, and speculative. Through workshops, reading-group discussions, and learning circles, terrain and text positions long-form reading as a reclamation of intellectual and cognitive sovereignty amidst the attention economy. We exercise epistemic disobedience and we embrace not knowing! Based between Cairo, Toronto, and Abu Dhabi, Farida Rady is a researcher, artist, and writer currently pursuing a PhD in urban planning at the University of Toronto. Farida explores questions of urban governance, housing justice, migrations, memory, and the poetics of place. Through various research/creation practices, including counter-mapping, alternative photography, and legal analyses, Farida prioritizes embodied and sited methods and collaborative pedagogical processes. Find Farida on a long walk, or swimming in the nearest body of water.
