The exhibition ‘Santander, Hábitat Futuro: Urban Planning as a New City Model’ opens 

Santander, Future Habitat is a city model specifically designed for Santander based on a thorough analysis of its conditions, needs, and opportunities, and following the process of listening and citizen participation initiated in 2020 through #ParticipaPGS. It is, therefore, a model made by the city for the city. 

Santander, Habitat Future promotes the transformation of the city through regenerative urbanism: an open model in which, through innovation and citizen participation, the adaptation of the territory and its ecological, economic, and social conditions for the various upcoming scenarios is prepared. 

Santander, Habitat Future is a model with a territorial vision that is articulated from the neighborhoods and is capable of acting in a practical and effective way on the daily reality of the citizens while keeping an eye on the major global challenges and their impact on the city. 

Santander, Habitat Future is also a guide to directing the commitment of various social, economic, and political agents towards the common goal of achieving a better city; a proposal that aligns with the direction taken by the most prominent contemporary urban projects and, due to its innovative nature, can serve as an example for other intermediate cities around the world. 

With Hábitat Futuro, Santander will be a circular, sustainable, resilient, interconnected, prosperous, vibrant, and inclusive city by 2055. A better city.
