Citizen participation in times of pandemic during the 150th Anniversary of Pinar del Río

Abstract

This text refers to the role played by the collective urban imaginary of the inhabitants of the city of Pinar del Río, in Cuba, in the transforming process of this city, as part of the 150th Anniversary of the Granting of the Title of City to it. Starting from the need to incorporate citizen participation, by local decision-makers, in the exercise of the construction of our cities, examples are shown of how this necessary integration is achieved in Pinar del Río, during the celebration, to achieve a city with greater urban personality, more defined in the physical-cultural elements that make up its urban design, both functional and aesthetic, that its citizens may need, more active from the involvement of its actors and with a greater incidence in improving the quality of life and the well-being of its inhabitants.
