Mo Sarraf is a researcher in urban and community planning. The majority of his current research projects are focused on exploring the relation between the built environment and autism. Aligned with the concept of inclusive cities and with an emphasis on the element of diversity, Mo is examining the significance of architecture, planning and decision-making processes in the ongoing paradigm shifts towards neurodiversity within autism studies.
With a background in architecture, Mo Sarraf holds a PhD in Planning & Decision Analysis from KTH. His PhD thesis, Spatiality of Multiculturalism (2015), explores the relation between urban form and cultural diversity, trying to highlight the role urban form plays in addressing the question of living 'together-in-difference’ in diversified multicultural societies.
