The Route-to-PA project intends to contribute to the Agenda 2030 by enhancing urban
community development and empowerment. In particular, the seminar will present results
regarding an open base platform, which aims to rise the participatory engagement of citizens
through smoothing citizens’ access to PA data, allowing social interaction over open data, and
facilitating online communities networking.

The project adds to the Agenda 2030 goal – stated in the SDG 11 –, which aims to develop more
‘inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable cities’. In the context of a unique urban growth that the
world has been experiencing in the last decades, the Agenda 2030 recognizes the importance of
strengthening urban planning and management to move towards a more equal and sustainable
path. In particular, the Route-to-PA project will tackle one of the key objectives of SDG 11, which
is to ´´enhance inclusive and sustainable urbanization and capacity for participatory, integrated
and sustainable human settlement planning and management in all countries
