The project is currently promoting a survey of data from the East Side (Zona Leste) of the city of Sao Paulo, Brazil. The aim is to detect the landscape dynamics: infrastructure and urban planning, critical landscapes, housing, productive territory, recycling, and public space. The material will be made available on a digital platform, accessible by computers and mobile devices–a tool specially developed to enable local communities to disseminate productive and creative practices that occur in the area, as well as to enable a greater participation in the formulation of public policies. An instrument that will serve to strengthen social, productive, and cultural networks of the region.
