Streets for citizens

Projekat Streets for citizens, koji djeluje unutar okvira Interreg Euro-MED programa i s misijom promoviranja zelenih stambenih područja, adresira dva osnovna izazova: 1. Visoki nivo vlasništva automobila, saobraćaja i opasnosti na putevima 2. Ograničena količina i/ili kvalitet prostora za zelenilo i aktivnosti zajednice

Da bi postigao promjenu u ponašanju prema održivoj urbanoj mobilnosti i zelenim ulicama, projekat se fokusira na podizanje svijesti i uticanje na ponašanje građana. On prepoznaje nedostatak kompetencija i alata među lokalnim vlastima u malim i srednjim gradovima za efikasno rješavanje ovih problema.

Primarni cilj projekta je osnažiti javni sektor i povezane entitete da efikasno uključe građane i povećaju njihovo angažovanje u rješavanju izazova mobilnosti i javnih prostora u funkcionalnim urbarnim područjima. Krajnji cilj je podsticanje aktivnijeg učešća građana u intervencijama usmjerenim ka unapređenju urbane održivosti.

Ovaj projekat prihvata nekoliko inovativnih pristupa, uključujući principe taktičkog urbanizma, nove participativne alate, digitalna rješenja, dizajnersko razmišljanje i pristup usmjeren na ljude. Usvajanjem ovih metodologija, projekt ima za cilj da katalizuje značajne promjene u urbanom planiranju i angažovanju građana širom regiona.

The Streets for Citizens project, which operates within the framework of the Interreg Euro-MED program and with the mission of promoting green residential areas, addresses two basic challenges:

1. High level of car ownership, traffic and road hazards

2. Limited quantity and/or quality of green spaces and community activities

In order to achieve a change in behavior towards sustainable urban mobility and green streets, the project focuses on raising awareness and influencing the behavior of citizens. He recognizes the lack of competence and tools among local authorities in small and medium-sized cities to effectively deal with these problems.

The primary goal of the project is to empower the public sector and related entities to effectively involve citizens and increase their engagement in solving the challenges of mobility and public spaces in functional urban areas. The ultimate goal is to encourage the active participation of citizens in interventions aimed at improving urban sustainability.

This project adopts several innovative approaches, including principles of tactical urbanism, new participatory tools, digital solutions, design thinking and a people-centered approach. By adopting this methodology, the project aims to catalyze significant changes in urban planning and citizen engagement throughout the region.
