Mexico City, Mexico
"Dialogues on Public Space: Informal Work and Mobility" took place on June 13, 2018, in Mexico City. The objective of the event was to create a space for dialogue and discussion between informal workers who perform their activities in the public space and activists of groups of pedestrians and cyclists whose mobility agendas sometimes ignore the right to public space as a work space.
The dialogue brought together workers from various occupational groups, such as street-vendors, shoeshiners, organ-grinders, waste pickers and tianguistas (market vendor), as well as guests from different groups representing pedestrians and cyclists. The coordinator of the Mexico City Focal City project, Tania Espinosa, and the project assistant of the Mexico City Focal City project, Yuleina Carmona, presented at the event.
