Doderer is an architect and urban researcher, and a Professor of Gender in Media and Design at the University of Applied Sciences in Duesseldorf, Germany. Doderer will discuss the contribution of sociopolitical movements to the imagination of alternative urban communities. Focusing on the Women’s Liberation and the Lesbian, Gay, Queer and Transgender movements, mainly (but not only) in Germany, she will present some conclusions of her research. Furthermore, she will question if these “other” spaces can be read as heterotopian spaces.
