Tour of Barranquilla's community gardens

recorrido
20 June 2025

Together with the gardeners, gardenisers pro, gardenisers edu, gardenisers tec, trainers and international project partners, we made a tour of the urban community gardens of Barranquilla. A very intense but, once again, extraordinary day. The five communities of Las Gardenias, La Paz, Lipaya, Juan Mina and Villas de San Pablo demonstrated that TOGETHER WE CAN! CO-Design, CO-Decide, CO-Manage, COllaborate is the key to more sustainable cities. The gardens belong to the communities in the barrios who, through training (Gardeniser) and active participation (GenerACTOR), have been empowered and invested with confidence and have become key players in the sustainable development of the city with a view to well-being and strengthening the social fabric.
.
An experience realised through the GenerACTOR project with the support of the European Union.
