In a world that is more and more urban, cities have a great responsibility when it comes to time to achieving more a sustainable development that can satisfy the needs of current generations without compromising the capacity of future generations.<\/p>

Thus, we present you good practices of recuperation, protection and knowledge of natural spaces, initiatives of sustainable mobility, experiences of promotion of sustainable consumption and recycling and of participative management of urban shared gardens.<\/p>

You could consult the good practices here<\/a><\/p>

Furthermore, we would like to share some publications of the Association on the point of view of local governments towards environment.<\/p>
