Weathering the storm: Generating intersectional urban design understandings for winter cities
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Taking an intersectional approach, this research explicates the unique manner in which spatial injustice is experienced in a winter city when an individual possesses the multiple disadvantaged identities of disability, gender, age, and class. Employing case study methodology and go-along interview methods, this research answers the question: how can the lived experience of an older, formerly homeless woman with mobility and mental health disabilities inform intersectional design recommendations for winter cities? The findings identify three priority areas for intersectional design in winter cities to facilitate inclusion, wellness, and resilience among those disadvantaged by disability, gender, age, and class. These areas are: components of the built environment requiring intersectional understanding of accessibility (sidewalks, public transit-access routes, building entrances, and public transit pick-up zones); the urban context of senior and affordable housing; and public transportation. This paper contributes to the literature by demonstrating that intersectional understandings of urban winter environments are potent knowledge towards transforming cities from ones that disable and marginalize, to ones that enable and empower.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
