Inclusive Cities Observatory

We are pleased to inform you that the translations into Spanish, French and English of all the case studies of the Inclusive Cities Observatory are now available on our Committee on Social Inclusion, Participatory Democracy and Human Rights webpage.

The Observatory is a space for analysis and reflection on local social inclusion policies. It contains over sixty case studies on innovative policies for community development, access to basic services, gender equality, environmental protection and the eradication of poverty, among others.

The initiative has been developed with the scientific support of Prof. Yves Cabannes from the University College of London and a team of researchers from the Centre for Social Studies (CES) at the University of Coimbra, which has worked under the supervision of Prof. Boaventura de Sousa Santos.

Through this Observatory, the Committee has identified and researched successful experiences that might inspire other cities to design and implement their own social inclusion policies.

If you wish to send us information about the most innovative social inclusion policies implemented by your municipality, please fill in and send this form to the UCLG Committee on Social Inclusion, Participatory Democracy and Human Rights through the following email address: [email protected]
