Social participation in urban planning as a human right

Participação social no planejamento urbano como direito humano

Abstract

The article aims to examine the Right to active citizenship in urban planning policies in cities, from a critical perspective. We started from the notion of existing socio-spatial inequalities in order to recognize the illusion / insufficiency of the universal inclusion project. It was concluded that there is a need for instruments for the modal and progressive inclusion of socially excluded groups, taking into account their specificities, from the affirmation of the human right to participation in urban management.
