Weak signals serve as precursors to forthcoming trends, disruptions, or shifts that could wield considerable influence in the days ahead. Typically inconspicuous, they demand astute observation and interpretation to discern their relevance. These signals emanate from diverse quarters, including consumer conduct, technological breakthroughs, societal movements, and geopolitical occurrences.
From this, as a group, Manuja, Nuria, and I worked on weak signals in geography.
When conducting an analysis of geographical weak signals, we searched for information regarding housing problems, both social and land-related. Topics included gentrification, floods, and new ways of living.
Diving into the details of gentrification and how it affects communities gave me some really interesting insights into how cities change. Doing lots of research let me dig into different aspects of gentrification, from where it started to how it's happening in cities all over.
Putting together the atlas helped me see that cities are about more than just buildings – they're alive with people, culture, and money all mixing together. It made me realize that to understand what's happening in a city, you have to look deeper than just what you see on the surface.
