Pratichi Chatterjee is a Research Fellow (also titled Dr Policy Fellow) in the Department of Social and Psychological Sciences at the School of Human and Health Sciences, University of Huddersfield. Her research critically engages with housing justice, urban dispossession, colonial continuities in land and housing policies, and the role of academic activism. She contributes to interdisciplinary urban scholarship with a focus on social and spatial justice, particularly in the UK, Australia, and Brazil.
Her research interests center on housing justice, public housing, smart cities, and colonial practices of dispossession. She explores how urban development reproduces inequalities through processes like gentrification, land privatization, and tenant displacement. Her work emphasizes the political dimensions of housing and the ethical responsibilities of scholars in marginalized communities.
The recent articles indicate a strong trend in critical urban geography, with recurring themes of resistance, scholar-activism, and the intersection of policy, history, and spatial justice. Her publications span housing policy journals, urban theory, and political geography, reflecting a transdisciplinary approach. She frequently collaborates with scholars such as Alison Sisson and Jenny Condie, often in community-engaged or activist-oriented research.
