2023 Award "Best Practice in Citizen Participation"
17th Edition
In collaboration with the Dirección General Antropología Urbana (DGAUR) and the Secretaría de Transporte y Obras Públicas (SECTOP), the Dirección General Participación Ciudadana y Cercanía (DGPCC) carried out the implementation of citizen participation tools so that those who so wished could express their opinions regarding the BA Costa project. This is a comprehensive plan for the transformation of the coast of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, which proposes a series of urban projects along 25 kilometers of the city's coastline, for the reconstruction of the link and the use of the neighbors with the waterfront.
For the design of this project we considered the background of the different areas of the Government of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, which, competent in the matter, carried out actions of diagnosis, mapping of actors, interviews, observation and analysis of the coastal space of the city.
Finally, and considering this background, between the months of June and July 2022, a participatory process was carried out where several instances of listening and dialogue were set in motion in which all citizens were invited to participate. A total of 8 citizen participation actions were carried out, in which 2,227 neighbors registered and a total of 245 neighbors participated.
The execution of the project was designed in 8 meetings comprised as spaces for information, consultation and debate. In order to reach the largest number of citizens, we presented a variety of time slots and modalities, 4 virtual and 4 face-to-face. In addition, 6 meetings were divided by geographical area of the city, north, south and center, and 2 by public, the target public being young people and children.
The dynamics of these meetings consisted of 4 moments: the presentation of the areas together with the dynamics and objectives of the meeting; the technical information on the BA Costa project together with a question and answer session by the technical team; the diagnosis and ideation in collaborative work tables where participants could express different opinions, comments and suggestions; and finally the collective sharing and closing of the meeting.
