This article theorises a multi-year participatory action research engagement focusing on young land occupations and consolidated favelas in São Paulo’s south periphery, providing an arsenal of tools for activist-scholars. Building on Paulo Freire's legacy, we call on academia to embrace activist co-production, learn from and support informal dwellers’ everyday urbanisms, and join social movements’ struggles for social transformation. We advance three modalities of action: awareness raising through emancipatory education and capacity building; articulatção through knowledge exchange between young and consolidated informal communities; and advocacy through policy reform for the right to occupy, hold ground, and upgrade.

争取占领权、坚守权和升级权的积极联合生产

本文提出了一项多年参与性行动研究的理论，重点关注圣保罗南部外围的年轻土地占领和综合贫民窟，为活动学者提供了一系列工具。在保罗·弗莱雷的遗产的基础上，我们呼吁学术界拥抱积极分子的共同生产，学习和支持非正规居民的日常城市生活，并加入社会运动以实现社会转型。我们推进三种行动方式：通过解放教育和能力建设提高认识；通过年轻和巩固的非正式社区之间的知识交流进行阐述；通过政策改革倡导占领权、占领权、升级权。
