About Shared City
Who we are
Shared City is an independent and non-profit foundation that builds long-term capacity for inclusive urban development at all levels.
Our Vision
Shared City Foundation mission is to strengthen the position, opportunity and participation of groups at risk of marginalisation in urban development all over the world.
Our Approach
DIGITAL TOOLS
A cost-efficient digital solution for local professionals and decision-makers to mainstream youth, gender, and socio-economic perspectives by strategically involving girls in urban planning.
PARTNER NETWORKS
In joint initiatives with public, civil society and community organisations, our toolbox creates platforms for collaboration and knowledge exchange, to implement sustainable local city projects.
DIRECT IMPACT
Participatory processes empower, support and ensure the sustainable planning and design of sustainable cities.
Our Programmes
HER CITY TOOLBOX
Her City is our participatory methodology and digital toolbox that supports more inclusive urban development with girls and young women at the centre. With UN-Habitat, we turn local knowledge into actionable urban solutions, co-creating safer, more inclusive and more equitable cities.
RESILIENT RECONSTRUCTION
Shared City supports rebuilding processes in crisis-affected contexts through locally rooted, participatory and resilient approaches. We focus on community-led processes to strengthen local capacity for recovery and reconstruction.
SUSTAINABLE PROXIMITY
With Prof. Carlos Moreno's research team at Chaire ETI, Sorbonne University, Shared City promotes the 15-minute city concept — ensuring all residents have access to essential services within a short walk or bike ride, creating people-centred, liveable neighbourhoods.
