Beginning in January 2022, the University of Miami Office of Civic and Community Engagement, affiliated faculty, and community partners embarked on a research study to examine the genesis, criteria, and relevance of the term “climate gentrification” as it relates to concerns about equitable development in Miami. The project complemented an academic literature review with a collection of oral histories to expand the understanding of climate gentrification based on lived experiences.
Students in Dr. Robin Bachin’s Environmental History course at the University of Miami in Spring 2022 partnered with community organizations to engage interested residents in recording oral histories in the Overtown, Little Havana, Liberty City, and Allapattah neighborhoods in Miami.
