Claudia Tomateo is a PhD student in Urban Planning at DUSP MIT. Her research
focuses on the restitution of Indigenous worlds through the construction of
typological frameworks for agro-ecological and bio-cultural strategies rooted in
Indigenous cosmovisions. Through the visualization of Indigenous governance
systems grounded in ideas of reciprocity, solidarity, caretaking, and cyclicality, she
hopes to repurpose mapping to contribute to the dismantling of hegemonic,
patriarchal, capitalistic, and extractive urban studies and planning structures.
Claudia holds the degrees of Professional Architect from the Pontificia Universidad
Católica del Perú, and a Master’s of Architecture in Urban Design. from the Harvard
Graduate School of Design.
