Beyond the Divide: A Century of Canadian Mosque Design and Gender Allocations is a two-year research project to study mosques and Islamic cultural centres across the country by Assistant Professor Tammy Gaber.
By documenting the breadth and development of Canadian mosque architecture, regional nuances and rooted connections to specific localities will be revealed in addition to highlighting the rich history and contribution of Muslims to the built environment of Canada.
In addition to this, there is an unfolding Islamic conversation on gender and space in the mosque, and documenting how various communities resolve this and the relationship to architectural design will reveal potentials and trajectories for future mosque design.
