  • The presence of underused spaces within urban areas, associated with the need to promote the transformation of such situations to respond to the different needs of communities, has led to the emergence of numerous experiences of depaving. These initiatives, promoted by institutions and groups of citizens, have acted with the aim of: countering the physical degradation of areas located in residential contexts; responding to the needs of communities for a new endowment of collective spaces and protection of places; promoting the principles of sustainability through the creation and management of renaturalized spaces; restoring the permeability of soils to contain the phenomena of flooding of urban areas by applying the principles of sustainable urban drainage.
