Le Port (Reunion Island – France): the City Port project takes shape

Goal 4.3

Guaranteeing transparent management of City Port regions and adopting open information systems.

Challenge(s)

How can citizens and civil society be included in managing the port city territory?

Best Practice

Various challenges can arise in large-scale development projects, many of which are difficult to predict or control. This can result in significant delays in delivering tangible results. However, one effective way to mitigate this issue is to ensure consistent and transparent communication with stakeholders and citizens throughout the project. By doing so, the project can remain dynamic and responsive, and any concerns about stagnation can be addressed and resolved conveniently. In Le Port, for instance, a neighbourhood redevelopment included participation in workshops and visual communication to engage residents.


This good practice also includes objective 6.5 (Organising temporary and permanent cultural events in port areas) of the AIVP’s 2030 Agenda.
