Urban strategic planning is a process of management and decision-making that guides the development of cities in the medium and long term. Through a shared vision among public, private, and social actors, this approach defines objectives, priorities, and actions to improve quality of life, strengthen territorial sustainability, and guide urban transformation in a coordinated and adaptive manner.
