We promote urban planning approaches focused on the quality of life of cities’ inhabitants. To that purpose, we formulate, evaluate, and assist on urban development plans and policies at local or communal, intercommunal, regional, and national scales.
Our approach
- We are focused on the strengthening of participatory democracy in city planning and management.
- We promote more just cities, without inequalities, segregation, or exclusions of any kind and with gender equality.
- We promote the design of safe, accessible neighborhoods and spaces that favor the encounter and their appropriation by communities, as well as the incorporation into the urban fabric of neighborhoods and urban spaces that are not integrated into it.
Our work
- We carry out diagnoses for urban planning, using information technologies, surveys, qualitative techniques, and participatory research.
- We formulate and design short-, medium- and long-term plans, involving communities and public and private actors in the territory.
- We prepare physical and social investment projects to materialize development plans.
- We design monitoring and evaluation systems for urban plans.
- We propose governance models for planning.
We collaborate with
- Regional governments.
- Undersecretariat for Regional Development.
- Ministry of Housing and Urbanism.
- National Council for Urban Development.
