The Multidisciplinary Landscape of Segregation Research[edit | edit source]
Segregation Wiki emerged from a comprehensive meta-study on the multidisciplinary landscape of segregation research.
By examining open-access excerpts from over 10,000 documents in the Scopus database, we identified and mapped 804 distinct forms of segregation (SFs) studied across more than 160 disciplinary fields dating back to 1913. These SFs were uncovered using a bottom-up methodology, reflecting the diversity of segregation research over the past century.
This platform was envisioned and brought to life to foster integrated collective research on segregation. Most of the initial definitions for the identified SFs were generated through a large language model (LLM) and are designed to evolve through the collaborative contributions of the research community. Linguist and glossary expert Dr Satia Marini synthesized definitions for the fifty most-researched segregation forms based on key works in the specialized literature. These definitions have been further reviewed and refined by Segregation Wiki administrators Maria Fiszon, Otavio Peres and Vinicius Netto. We hope that collaborative effort will ensure that the platform continues to evolve in line with the emerging needs and insights of the research community.
At its core, Segregation Wiki is organized around a comprehensive ontology of segregation forms — a systematic, bottom-up classification that semantically organizes access to this vast transdisciplinary landscape. This is probably the first classification of its kind in segregation research. By leveraging network analysis and AI-driven semantic generation, the ontology maps relationships between various forms of segregation as they appear in the literature, grouped under distinct labels or types. You can explore an interactive visualisation of the ontology, which is currently under development: interactive ontology

Founders and Project development team[edit | edit source]
Segregation Wiki was created by Vinicius M. Netto (Research Centre for Territory, Transports and Environment, University of Porto | CITTA FEUP, Portugal) with Kimon Krenz (The Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London | UCL, UK), Maria Fiszon (Graduate Program in Architecture and Urbanism, Fluminense Federal University | UFF, Rio de Janeiro state, Brazil), Otávio Peres (Graduate Program in Architecture and Urbanism, Federal University of Pelotas | UFPel, Brazil; Federal University of Santa Catarina | UFSC, Brazil), Desirée Rosalino (National School of Statistical Sciences (ENCE), Rio de Janeiro, Brazil), and Renato Saboya (Federal University of Santa Catarina | UFSC, Brazil).
The platform is primarily administered by Vinicius M. Netto, Maria Fiszon and Otávio Peres, who oversee the integrity and accuracy of its content. As Principal Investigator and Project Administrator, Vinicius holds formal responsibility for the platform, ensuring it remains aligned with research objectives and adheres to institutional and funding guidelines.
Website development was carried out by Zesto Tecnologia LTDA (Brazil), while the Segregation Wiki logo was designed by Laura Miranda, adding a visual identity that reflects the platform's subject matter.
Funding[edit | edit source]
Main funding for Segregation Wiki was provided by the Carlos Chagas Filho Foundation for Research Support of the State of Rio de Janeiro (Fundação Carlos Chagas Filho de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado do Rio de Janeiro, FAPERJ) under the research project "Immersive Technologies for More Resilient, Fair, and Sustainable Cities" ("Tecnologias Imersivas para Cidades mais Resilientes, Justas e Sustentáveis," Proc. E-26/211.381/2021), with Vinicius M. Netto serving as Principal Investigator and Project Administrator.
Additional funding for researchers:
Research Centre for Territory, Transports and Environment Faculty of Engineering | University of Porto (CITTA FEUP, VN), Portugal.
Foundation for Science and Technology (Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia FCT) (VN grant 2023.07510.CEECIND), Portugal.
National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico, CNPq, Brazil) (VN grant 315086/2020-3, MF grant E-26/201.573/2023).
Brazilian Federal Agency for Support and Evaluation of Graduate Education (Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior, CAPES, Brazil) (OP grant 88887.877125/2023-00).
