Behind The Scenes

Short description:

We understand that public spaces are a strategic topic in an increasingly urbanized world. That's why we work to promote a collaborative production of its use, occupation and management among the various urban actors: community, organized civil movements, third sector, companies and public authorities.

We have no ready-made solutions, but methodologies, trials and experiments.
We act through research, mapping and interaction with the local population, activating the potential of territories to turn them into vibrant places.

View from your window:

A big city.

The democratization of public spaces and the building of partnerships aiming the exercise of the right to the city
