They are a focal point for our culture, communities and everyday economies. They support the most sustainable models of living and working, including active travel and shorter commutes. And they are where new ideas, new ways of living, new businesses and new experiences are made. Our high streets and town centres face many challenges, but our research shows how much Londoners value them as places to meet, socialise, access services, shop, work and live.

    DRAFT REPORT from NOTE: This is a very basic draft of the text that Southwark Notes Archives Group will be finally editing soon and laying out as both a printed pamphlet and online PDF. We have chosen to print this rough draft for the purpose of having this ma- terial available today at the DEVELOPING ALTERNATIVES event. It’s a bit messy in this format and still contains a few things we are updating. Enjoy! MORNING SESSIONS 1 - Displacement The displacement of existing communities (residential and commercial) and loss of public resources and amenities Participants: 23 people including researcher of local Latin American community; a Latin American Workers' Association (LAWAS) activist, a Mobile Gardener; various activists; an artist working critically in a regeneration site; Aylesbury tenants and a Rockingham tenant; some planners; some Latin American folks working on displacement in various struggles; members of Elephant Amenity Network, some academics, some students and an architect. Discussion Write-Up: LATIN AMERICAN TRADERS AT ELEPHANT & CASTLE A short presentation showed us a number of photos that charting the changing nature of the Latin American traders locally. The first pictures from 1994 show that the businesses were inside the shopping centre and were much more temporary shops. These became more permanent and the traders began to occupy arches owned by Network South East along Elephant Rd and opposite where the new Strata Tower is. There has been a successful Latin American Recognition Campaign in the area and this has succeeded in gaining the de- scription ‘Latin American’ on Council Ethnic Monitoring forms. The Elephant being a ‘Latin Quarter’ has been spun by the Council and developers some- times against the interests of that community.
