The Rights of the Conceptual Framework 1. The Right to Participation: This right stands against the crisis and the most disturbing problems of minority life. It suggests that minorities should play a central role in any decision that impacts their life and human settlements, such as planning, economic investment, urban development, and environmental policies. Today, participation is even more critical giving the growing impacts of neoliberalism and globalization policies, which have led to a less democratic room for urban residents in general and for minorities in particular. 2. The Right to Space Production: This includes the right of minority inhabitants to physically access, occupy, own, use and produce their environmental and economic spaces. It includes the right to produce urban spaces that meet the needs of the minority social and cultural aspirations. Human settlements, cities and informal spaces are places where people carry out most of their daily life. Apparently, these places are ideal places for constructing human rights for all groups, including minorities. 3. The Right to Unconditional Citizenship: This involves rights, duties and membership in a state, regardless any condition. A restrictive, or conditional citizenship for minorities and indigenous people is a dangerous and inhuman practice. 4. The Right of Cultural, Spatial, and Economic Self Determination: This right - entails the production and reproduction of all aspects of minority life. This emphasizes the right of minorities to produce their human spaces. Thus, it radically expands the scope of rights beyond the conventional schemes. It is about producing minority spaces according to its heart's desire.
