Open Letter for the Right to a Place
Letter developed within the framework of the project ““Ligações, organizações da sociedade civil em reflexão e ação sobre as assimetrias do território” (Links, civil society organizations in reflection and action on territorial asymmetries), financed by the EEAGrants Cidad@s Ativ@sprogram, managed by the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation and the Bissaya Barreto Foundation, and prepared by 42 civil society organizations from the Center of the Country and Lisbon area. It is a collective positioning document, which starts from the problem of the loss of population residing in rural areas and in the centers of large cities, and intends to raise a broad debate on the reasons that force people to give up living in places which they are identified with, and proposes a wide range of measures that protect the right to a place, in matters such as: housing, mobility, integration and participation of vulnerable groups, employment, public spaces and accessibility to services.
This project has the participation of the SOCIUS researcher, Eunice Castro Seixas, within the scope of the work developed as the coordinator of CRiCity "Children and their right to the city: Tackling urban inequity through the participatory design of child-friendly cities”.
