Long Beach (USA): The port updates its masterplan with the community

Goal 4.3

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

Challenge(s)

How can citizens and civil society be involved in the management of the Port City territory?

Best Practice

To ensure that redevelopment projects aimed at improving port-city interface areas are understood, it is important to provide the citizens with a good understanding of the needs and constraints associated with port activities. However, the process can often seem difficult to navigate. One approach that can be helpful is to focus on explaining the port and its relationship with the city. Additionally, it is crucial to regularly consult and inform citizens as the project progresses to ensure proper communication and inclusion. These measures will help to establish a clear dialogue and bring citizens on board with the project.
