progress regarding…

Individual situations Neighbourhoods Work Methodologies

• More and better access to resources due to the coordination of efforts.

• Better quality of life, and improvemente in personal and social skills.

• Larger participation in “District 5” activities.• Greater sense of belonging and identity

within the area. • Closeness of the administration to citizenship.

Individual Situations

• Improvement in urban resources. • More chances and real alternatives for the

development of the area.• Increase of collective responsibility.

Common Voice. They have become a reliable interlocutor with the authorities.

• Normalization. Improvement of the external image of the area.

• Better expression and claim of collective needs.

Neigbourhoods

• Coordination, with real synergies among the partners in the area.

• Culture of networking. Logistical support and dissemination activities to be carried out.

• Multidimensionality and exchange of information.

• Improvement of the civil servants’ knowledge about District 5 real needs.

• The territory as interface between people (micro) and policy (macro).

Partners' Work Methodologies

As Conclusion

• It is a successful model, it remains even in the context of a crisis, but there is still a long way to walk.

• Citizen participation remains weak. • It is necessary:

- to strengthen the commitments among all partners.- to continue promoting specific institutional agreements

between the administrations and entities that will consolidate the progress.

- to search for formulas of supplementary funding to guarantee survival.
