Spacial Justice
One prominent component of Liz Ogbu’s career is her study of spatial justice which refers to "physical and emotional space to feel safe, heard, and in control of one's surroundings ("Definitions – The Spatial Justice Network")." According to Ogbu, "spatial justice" means that justice has a geography and that the equitable distribution of access, services, and outcomes is a basic human right. "A lack of spatial justice isn’t just about the deprivation of physical resources like housing or parks, but also the wide range of devastating interrelated social, economic, and health repercussions." (Liz Ogbu, Local Initiatives Support Corporation, n.d.)
