Dimitri van den Wittenboer is a community artist and researchers based in Brussels. in 2024 he started his PhD research in the arts at the Antwerp Research Institute for the Arts (ARIA) - Sint Lucas Antwerpen & University of Antwerp. His research “Empowered Care” roots in the co-initiation and co-maintenance of housing projects for and with people who are in financial and legal precarity (the homeless, sans-papiers, asylum seekers). Dimitri explores how care can be extended from the private nuclear family towards a broader group of people in need through sharing living space based on mutual aid, allyship and love and the ethical complexities of it.
