Quinta do Ferro, from participation to gentrification promoted by one municipality
Keywords:
Lisbon, gentrification, touristification, participatory planning, right to the city, right to the placeAbstract
Rather than merely describing participatory practices and methodologies and their transformation into projects, this essay aims to reflect on a process driven from local reality (bottom-up), the organization of people, the attainment of visibility, and the conflict with institutionalized planning practices (top-down). It lists and describes some of these moments, seeking to map and register a process rich in nuances, contradictions, illusions, and disappointments, yet capable of positioning itself as a contribution to a broader analysis on Lisbon planning methods over the last decade.
