PLÉYADES Developing Circular Business Activities for Regenerating Urban Spaces

Goals

The change in the production and social relationship model in the industrial areas of the Basque Country is showing the need to create a model that innovates the relationship of those areas with the urban perimeter of the territory. There is a serious lack of connectivity and the creation of new products in the industrial environment in the territorial fabric.

The regeneration of an urban space must be tackled in a holistic and integral way to build trust and social cohesion. A methodology based on three axes was used for those ends.

  • Material and industrial

  • A large scope local social impact

Providing:

  • Economic initiatives affecting urban spaces
  • Training linked with new circular activities
  • Entrepreneurship and recovering arts and crafts linked with preparation for reuse
  • Workshops that allow dialogue and mediation with people from the area
