Territorial Empathy

Nonprofit Design Collective

Hearth project site plan in South Bronx

Our Mission

Territorial Empathy strives to promote spatial justice by cultivating empathetic design that is deeply rooted in cultural responsiveness, anti-racism, and anti-bias practices. Only through these principles can we work towards dismantling systemic inequities. Our collective, consisting of architects, urbanists, and researchers from diverse backgrounds, actively engages with often overlooked communities to co-create thriving, just, and resilient spaces.
