About Streets for Citizens Project
The project, operating within the framework of the Interreg Euro-MED program and under the mission of Promoting green living areas, addresses two primary challenges:
High rate of car ownership, traffic, and road danger
Scarce quantity and/or quality of spaces for greenery and community activities
To achieve a behavioral shift towards sustainable urban mobility and greener streets, the project focuses on raising awareness and influencing citizen behavior. The primary objective of the Streets for Citizens project is to empower the public sector and related entities to engage citizens effectively and increase their commitment to addressing mobility and public space challenges in functional urban areas. The ultimate goal is to foster more active citizen participation in interventions aimed at enhancing urban sustainability. The project will develop a tactical urbanism methodology, leveraging existing knowledge, to design territorial roll-up plans. These plans will outline long-term strategies and demonstration actions tailored to the specific needs of each partner country. By implementing pilots and learning from the outcomes, the partnership will develop and disseminate scalable solutions and policy recommendations.
