Cities today require urban and social transformations aimed at improving the experience of their inhabitants. Urban acupuncture serves as a method for revitalizing specific areas through targeted, impactful interventions, addressing longstanding urban and social issues. The +VIDA program embodies this principle, focusing on vulnerable populations in the Colombian Caribbean and promoting collective construction via knowledge exchange. In collaboration with various partners, the program aims to foster community ownership of public spaces while contributing to socio-economic revitalization post-Covid, integrating aspects such as equity, culture, and urban education into urban planning.
"Urban acupuncture refers to the improvement of social and urban issues through precise interventions capable of revitalizing specific areas of cities and consolidating urban planning strategies."
"The +VIDA program represents a comprehensive strategy for urban and social transformation in territories, strategically focused on vulnerable populations in the Colombian Caribbean."
"The practice of acupuncture is based on equity, coexistence and social cohesion, sustainable development, livability, culture, urban education, and the conservation and rehabilitation of historical and popular heritage."
"In partnership with Fundación Pintuco and the Government of Bolívar, the +VIDA program aims to contribute to the socio-economic reactivation of territories during and after the Covid-19 pandemic."
