Urbanismo tático

Tactical urbanism, a practice that has been gaining prominence in recent years, has proved to be an attractive strategy for collective activists, architects, urban planners and designers around the world for proposing, at low cost and on a microscale, specific urban interventions in order to promote the right to the city. This way of thinking public spaces in the city seeks to act by a non-hierarchical logic, in which civil society (in collaboration or not with the State and/or private companies) proposes alternatives to the traditional project process in the urban sphere. This model of intervention in urban space arises from the decay of the state urban planning model, seeking rapid responses to problems related to public space, which supposedly would require a long and bureaucratic process by the State to be solved. This strategy also arises from dissatisfaction with the "top-down" model, in which urban projects are thought of by specialized professionals and the population is often consulted only at the end of the process, when many decisions have already been made.
