<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:TimesNewRomanPSMT">Townscapes and urban spaces are inspiring sites in many ways. They are constantly being altered and modified as a result of intermingling
local and global influences. How urban spaces are lived and experienced, narrated and memorised, told and transmitted is depending on individuals’ gender, age, ethnicity, class, social background and life history.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:TimesNewRomanPSMT">Nowadays most people have moved from one place to another several times during their lives. At the same time they have also crossed several
borders. Diversified mobilities of transnational and domestic migrants and diasporas are challenging our concepts of places and spaces. The former living places left behind for many reasons are carried along as memories and narratives. Experiences and memories
of earlier places always play a role in getting acquainted with new environments physically as well as socially.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:TimesNewRomanPSMT">In our panel we are focusing on cultural encounters in urban spaces. We are especially interested in how people are attached to their
own environments, living places, “micro spaces” instead of studying urban spaces on a larger level. How cultural encounters, variations and inequalities are experienced? How do these experiences shape urban spaces, spatial practices and understandings of everyday
life in relation to urban spatiality?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
