4 Citizen Commitment to Sustainability  2012-2022
Presentation
In 1995 Barcelona City Council approved the accession to the Aalborg Charter. The decision involved working in accordance with sustainable development principles and was the first step to provide the city with a Local Agenda 21 roadmap. 
Following an extensive consultation process, Barcelona defined its own Agenda 21 
in the Citizen Commitment to Sustainability 2002-2012, a broadly supported document 
which defined principles, objectives and lines of action to move towards a better city.
The Commitment has been the city’s roadmap for ten years. With over 800 organisa-
tions involved, the network of signatories has worked to achieve shared goals, with a 
wide range of transformational initiatives undertaken by businesses, civic and profes-
sional associations, trade unions, foundations, universities, schools and various areas 
and districts of the local Administration. 
During this time, we have learned a new language and developed a common culture. 
We have fine-tuned ideas about what is good for the city and how to achieve it. We 
have initiated collaborative projects and we have made indisputable progress. Perhaps 
most importantly, the citizens of Barcelona have begun to share new values which are 
being included in our planning.
The time has come to renew our citizen commitment for the coming decade, be-
cause there are still goals to be reached, because new challenges and sensitivities have 
emerged in this period, and because we want to continue being involved in building 
our city’s future.
The document you are reading has been developed and jointly agreed on through 
many different contributions. Worth highlighting are signatory conventions and asso-
ciated participatory processes, local strategic plans and programmes, working groups 
created specifically within the Municipal Council for Environment and Sustainability, 
international reference documents – particularly the strategy of the city network Lo-
cal Governments for Sustainability (ICLEI) and the Rio+20 resolutions – and reflec-
tions from the lecture and presentation series “Transitions towards a more sustainable 
Barcelona”.
Barcelona presents its Citizen Commitment to Sustainability 2012-2022, open to the 
involvement and contribution of all civic organisations committed to the future of the 
city. Everyone is invited to take part!

From Agenda 21 to  Commitment 22
genda 21 was born in the late twentieth century to enter the twenty-
A first (hence its name) with our best foot forward. Shortly afterwards, in 2002, Barcelona brought social partners into its Local Agenda 21 plan, uniting them around a shared commitment. A decade has passed and it is time to think about the next one. Barcelona needs a Commitment 22 
that inherits the spirit of that Agenda 21 which the city embraced enthusiastically ex-
actly ten years ago, updating it with goals for the coming decade. Indeed, that Agenda 
21 and the year it was jointly adopted, 2002, are in the past. More than anything, we 
are now interested in the future.
A future rooted in the past, of course. In these ten years we have made much 
progress. As humans, we tend to notice things we do not like and ignore or consi-
der obvious those that meet our desires. That is why we are so often disappointed, 
though we are surrounded by good solutions. The fact is that there is a long list of 
urban operations and processes in Barcelona which are better today than in 2002. 
Some of these improvements are worth highlighting: 100% of wastewater treated, 
noticeable savings in water consumption per inhabitant, a quantum leap in the use 
of solar energy, a drop in waste generation, organic waste collection extended to the 
whole city, the Garraf landfill closed and restored, bicycle use extended, increase 
in pedestrian and traffic calming areas, increase in green spaces and city block in-
ner courtyards reclaimed for public use, the emergence of urban vegetable gardens, 
strengthening sustainability education in 400 of the city’s schools, increasing life 
expectancy, etc. We have plenty to feel proud about.
Proud, but never satisfied. Our recent successes should spur us to keep on going 
for what seems like a long journey ahead. In fact, more than long, it will be different. 
The crisis that began in 2008 has not been merely quantitative. It has been primarily 
a qualitative crisis. For many years the model threatened to collapse and now it is 
a heap of rubble. So the work is twofold: to address the pending tasks and then up-
grade the frame of reference. Building this new model while moving forward is the 
challenge we face. It’s not a matter of merely doing what we already knew how to do, 
just better, but doing well what we did not even know could be done.
Some basic issues remain the same as they were ten years ago. We need to re-
duce our dependence on the environment and increase our level of social inter-
dependence. This requires pursuing a mixed, compact, efficient and diverse city, 
tending towards reducing its ecological footprint. Diverse, because all modern cities 
should be diverse. Mixed in order to function efficiently, because mixed uses ensu-

From Agenda 21 to  Commitment 22
re supply. Compact, because dispersion increases entropy. Productive and able to 
move towards energy self-sufficiency. A new city, socially and functionally diverse, 
efficient and focused on progress, competitive yet supportive. 
In other words, we need a sustainable Barcelona. Sustainability is not a pipe dre-
am. It is an innovative path towards a satisfying shared existence. It is an explo-
ratory path, but no less real and possible. More accurately, it is a necessary path 
because we still consume more resources than we really have, we dump more waste 
than our environment can assimilate, we dangerously deplete biodiversity and, to 
top things off, we redistribute the benefits of this voracious appropriation of our 
planet’s resources unfairly. Technically, sustainability is the internalization of all the 
consequences of the production and consumption process. More simply, we can say 
that sustainability is the exciting way of being happy efficiently using only what we 
need and without compromising the happiness of others. 
Sustainability thus has a social dimension based on fair distribution and also a 
material dimension based on efficiency, savings and sufficiency. In the crucial field 
of energy, self-sufficiency and zero emissions would be the ideal target. It can be 
achieved by accelerating the refurbishment and regeneration of the constructed 
city, harnessing every possible energy source locally and, particularly, maximizing 
the performance of the city machinery. 
The modern sustainable city, in addition to being equitable and efficient, must also 
be a smart city. A smart city is much more than an automatic or hi-tech city. Beyond 
quickly implementing prefabricated solutions, smart systems learn and make deci-
sions. Smart systems do not delegate responsibility to automated structures. They 
are a tool to streamline responsible actions.
The coming years will call for huge effort and imagination for the Barcelona we 
have inherited to become the Barcelona we can hand down to future generations. 
The scale of the challenge requires enormous collective agreement. This is why the 
Commitment 22 is so important. More than 800 signatories have already demons-
trated their degree of involvement since 2002. And from now on we should grow 
even larger. Because we will play a key role in the new decade. It can be done. It 
must be done. It will be done.

1 Biodiversity: from urban green areas to the 
renaturalisation of 
the city
DIAGNOSIS
In the ten years in which Commitment has been enforced, significant progress has 
been made in the preservation of open spaces, green areas and biodiversity. Protected 
areas have been doubled with the new Territorial Plan for the Metropolitan Region of 
Barcelona, Collserola has been declared a nature park, natural areas have recovered 
(such as the Besòs river park, the Vallvidrera creek) and 91 hectares of green spaces 
have been recovered within the city. We currently have 18 m2 of green space per in-
habitant in the whole municipality, although we should continue working to increase 
green spaces within the city itself, particularly in the most densely populated districts.
Progress has also been made in improved biodiversity knowledge and conserva-
tion. We now know that in Barcelona’s urban fabric we have various protected species: 
seven mammals, 55 birds, eight reptiles and two amphibians. We have successfully 
implemented programmes for the conservation of species (birds in buildings, amphib-
ians, reintroduction of the peregrine falcon, etc.). We know we have 153,000 trees in 
our streets – more than 150 different species – and to what extent our green spaces 
improve the city’s water balance, regulate the microclimate, absorb pollutants and 
carbon, reduce noise and improve social cohesion.
However, we still have many challenges ahead. We must ensure that nature weaves 
into and interacts with the city. We need to see green areas as an infrastructure that 
links the city to the broader territory and provides environmental and social services. 
We must put nature back into the city, equitably extending green spaces and biodiver-
sity in all its nooks, and using every space available (roofs, walls, balconies, terraces, 
temporarily unused spaces, etc.). We must preserve and enhance the remnants of the 
natural ecosystems that survive in the city. We have to control invasive alien species, 
both plant and animal. And we need to have greater appreciation for the nature we 
enjoy in the city.
10 Citizen Commitment to Sustainability  2012-2022
LINES OF ACTION
Progressively develop a network of green corridors to constitute a real, functional 
ecological infrastructure* which allows linking green areas and the surrounding natu- 1
ral habitat. 
Renaturalise the city: integrate biodiversity and nature in the urban design. Moving 
towards a city which aims at increasing green areas, allowing nature to penetrate the 2
city, improving soil quality and enhancing the presence of naturalized aquatic areas.
Expand urban greenery in streets, parks and squares, city block inner courtyards, 
vegetable gardens, patios, bar terraces, green roofs, balconies, walls and party walls, 3
industrial estates, temporarily unoccupied plots and other viable spaces.
Bolster the environmental and social benefits of urban greenery: environmental 
(acoustic, climatic, atmospheric) and sensory quality, the carrying capacity of green 4
spaces (proximity, services), and their cultural, educational and recreational relevance.
Promote the active conservation of coastal and marine environments and river sys-
tems, allocating the necessary resources and using them responsibly. 5
Create a network of small nature reserves* that allow the protection of valuable nat-
ural areas that still exist within the Barcelona urban area, according to their unique-
ness or representativeness. 6
Enhance and restore open spaces and traditional uses of the urban periphery land-
scapes to ensure a peaceful environment with water bodies, agricultural fields and 
patches of forest. Promote organic and collective farming. 7
Improve knowledge of biodiversity and its benefits. Foster research to improve man-
agement and conduct outreach activities to boost citizens’ recognition, appreciation 
and responsible conduct. 8
Develop biodiversity conservation programmes to protect and enhance the richness 
of species and habitats, caring for local flora and fauna and preventing the intro-
duction of invasive species, with everyone’s collaboration. Promote land stewardship 9
programs.
Manage green spaces by efficiently using natural resources and products with low 
impact on health and the environment. Select species according to the services they 
provide and their adaptability. 10

2 Public space and mobility: from streets made for 
commuting to streets 
for living
DIAGNOSIS
Barcelona is a Mediterranean city (with a mild climate and intensive use of space). 
It is compact (with multi-family housing, ground floor public premises and a large net-
work of underground infrastructures), complex (with mixed use spaces) and dense 
(15,000 inhabitants per km2). 
This city model provides advantages for social cohesion and the efficiency of the 
metabolic networks that make it work, such as mobility and distribution of water, 
goods, energy and information. It simultaneously allows optimal land use and the 
maintenance of natural areas around the city. But it also implies the need for intensive 
maintenance of public areas to prevent decay, create more open spaces, increase the 
presence of green areas, learn to live in multifunctional spaces and control the exces-
sive use of some areas.
Barcelona has managed to recover more than 74.5 hectares of space for pedestrians, 
thanks to the creation of superblocks (extended city blocks which would unite some 
current blocks and limit traffic), recovery of industrial plots, rehabilitation of historic 
centres, running infrastructures underground and opening up Eixample city block in-
ner courtyards and school playgrounds. As for maintenance, a major effort has been 
made to coordinate work and efforts are being made comprehensively on sidewalks, 
furniture, lighting, sewers, trees, paving and signage. 
In terms of mobility, we can say that Barcelona shows a very good modal split. Ap-
proximately 80% of in-city and 56% of inter-city journeys occur on foot, by bicycle or 
public transport. 
However, traffic is still responsible for 37% of greenhouse gas emissions, 50% of ni-
trogen oxide and particle emissions, and 80% of noise pollution. We must, therefore, 
continue to work together to make mobility more sustainable at a metropolitan level, 
reducing external effects and making it healthier, safer and more efficient. We need to 
move forward in a culture of shared public spaces and reverse the dominance of the car. 
12 Citizen Commitment to Sustainability  2012-2022
LINES OF ACTION
Strengthen the metropolitan city model with quality, compact, complex, diverse and 
well-connected public spaces. 1
Establish new “super-blocks” and human-paced neighbourhoods where people live 
and work, reducing the need for forced mobility. Prioritize the use of roads. Create 2
new urban magnets that create neighbourhood focal points.
Protect, maintain and enhance the urban landscape values and ensure the orderly and 
rational use of public space. Ensure excellence in urban design of buildings and prem-
ises, promoting quality architecture in line with its functionality, helping to create a 3
harmonious environment.
Reclaim the streets for people, creating a peaceful and welcoming public space, and 
promoting a culture of shared public space. Promote and prioritise street life: commu- 4
nity places for living, meeting and playing. 
Promote and be committed to safe, sustainable and active mobility, increasing the 
number of journeys made with non-motorized modes of transportation. Encourage 
increased pedestrian mobility, ordering and improving the surface for pedestrians and 5
providing more information and signage – also for children, with the introduction and 
improvement of school routes.
Build a bicycle-friendly and safe city with the means to move around (a network of 
bicycle lanes), access to public transportation and parking, and positive coexistence 
with pedestrians. Promote public bicycle use also among younger people and extend 6
it throughout the metropolitan area. Develop initiatives to promote bicycle use (work-
shops, training, outreach).
Excel in universal access to public transport, buildings and spaces open to the public, 
avoiding unnecessary obstacles and structuring parking areas. 7
Progress towards an excellent interconnected metropolitan public transport. Expand 
and optimize the network: underground (finish work on the L9 line), the orthogonal bus, 
connection of trams, neighbourhood and night buses. Make it affordable to everyone. 8
Boost deterrents to the use of private motor vehicles (cars, motorcycles, vans, etc.): 
regulate traffic in strategic areas of the city (30 km/h zones, schedules, constraints, 
etc.), creating peripheral parking spaces, HOV lanes, etc. Promote efficient driving. 9
Implement specific measures for urban distribution of goods, both for small delivery 
fleets and large retailers. Standardise schedules and parking spaces, optimise routes, 
enhance more efficient last-mile microplatform distribution solutions (with bikes, 
electric vehicles). 10

3 Environmental quality and health: from standards to 
excellence
DIAGNOSIS
The health of the population depends on many factors: individual (age, gender, ge-
netics), lifestyle, social influences, living and working conditions, socio-economic con-
ditions, etc. But it also depends on environmental factors such as the quality of the air 
we breathe, what we eat and drink, the noise around us, other physicochemical factors 
and levels of cleanliness.
Controlling all these aspects and improving them is the great challenge for the next 
decade. Despite efforts made, we have failed to sufficiently reduce the levels of ni-
trogen oxides and suspended particles. We also face the challenge of preserving our 
identity as a Mediterranean city – lively, active and with a diversity of uses and inter-
ests – and improving our quality of life together. Both in terms of air quality and noise, 
traffic is a key problem, something that we have to resolve forcefully.
In other areas – such as the influence of certain chemicals on health, electromagne-
tism, the quality of suspended particles, water, smells, etc. – we need to improve our 
knowledge and meanwhile apply the principle of precaution.
We can highlight the great progress made in recent years in wastewater treatment, 
which has allowed us to substantially improve the water quality in the receiving envi-
ronments. In addition, there is a growing supply of organic products, which have also 
started to be introduced in school canteens and some catering and restaurant services. 
14 Citizen Commitment to Sustainability  2012-2022
LINES OF ACTION
Improve air quality, especially with respect to nitrogen oxides, suspended particles 
and allergens. Reduce motorised traffic, promote cleaner fuels and electric vehicles, 1
and reduce the use of diesel. 
Create low-emission zones where only vehicles that meet certain standards of pollut-
ant emissions can circulate, and disseminate information on air quality and its impact 2
on health. 
Improve acoustic comfort. Help reduce noise levels, especially from vehicles with 
internal combustion engines, nightlife, construction work and air conditioner units. 3
Intensify control.
Improve the quality of drinking water (including taste and smell) and the quality of 
bathing water, sand and rivers. 4
Promote and enhance the production and sale of healthier foods (organic, free of 
additives). Generalize their use in school and community canteens (residences, hos- 5
pitals, etc.). 
Achieve excellence in city cleaning, with greater citizen and social agents’ engage-
ment in the maintenance of public spaces (trash bins, pets, events, etc.). 6
Have an efficiently lit city, taking into account functional, energy and aesthetic is-
sues. Reduce light pollution. 7
Prevent and reduce smell pollution (urine, waste, smoke, sewage, etc.). 8
Enrich the environment, both indoor and outdoor, with vegetation and natural ele-
ments that improve people’s quality of life and health. 9
Promote research and dissemination of the health effects of various physicochemical 
factors (ionizing and electromagnetic radiation, chemical products, etc.). Apply the 
precautionary principle. 10
15
4 Efficient, productive and zero emission city: from the 
technological 
Barcelona to the 
smart Barcelona
DIAGNOSIS
In coming years, Barcelona will have to address the challenges of globalization – 
with repercussions on the economy and mobility –, the transformation of social rela-
tions through information technology, risk management and climate change.
Regarding climate change, the EU’s commitment to reducing greenhouse gas emis-
sions by 20% by 2020 can be considered ambitious, but achieving an 80-95% reduction 
in 2050 requires a radical short-term change in urban planning, the regeneration of 
the constructed city and citizens’ behaviour. Despite having reduced energy use in the 
last ten years and having increased by more than twenty the production of renewable 
energy in the city, there is still much to do to establish a new energy culture, similar to 
the new water culture, which is more entrenched and has made Barcelona one of the 
leading cities in Europe in terms of reduced water use.
Technology alone is not enough, but it is another tool available to achieve the zero 
emission city target. The best available technology can ensure greater efficiency and 
optimize the use of resources. And information and communication technology (ICT) 
can make ours a smarter city by helping us monitor situations in real time. In addition 
to providing information, ICTs should be useful in collaborative development, consul-
tation, deliberation and participation in planning, monitoring and evaluation of pro-
cesses, both for government and for social and business organisations.
But when we talk of a smart city or community, we are not only referring to a “tech-
nological” or “digitized” city. We are referring to a sustainable, liveable and productive 
city, a city designed for people, efficient in its use of resources and capable of generat-
ing talent.
16 Citizen Commitment to Sustainability  2012-2022
LINES OF ACTION
Transform the city by making it more efficient and productive through innovation, cre- 1
ativity and talent. A smart city* at the service of people and the environment.
Increasing efficiency in the use of resources and service provision in urban plan-
ning. Optimize land use to make the city more liveable. Transform the current 2
neighbourhoods into eco-neighbourhoods* and create new ones. 
Regenerate the constructed city via energy refurbishment of buildings and homes, 
starting with public buildings. Thermally insulate buildings, improve thermal and ligh- 3
ting installations, use efficient equipment and produce energy in the building. Advise 
the citizens on how to use energy responsibly. 
Increase awareness about sustainable building and encourage it. Learn together from 
practice and foster collaboration among professionals from various sectors. Promote 4
the adoption of stringent environmental standards for buildings and public spaces.
Preserve natural resources and achieve maximum efficiency in production, distribu-
tion and use of resources, especially water and energy. 5
Maximize local energy resources, prioritizing clean and renewable energy in various 
fields, especially in buildings and transport. 6
Introduce electric vehicles and other clean and less noisy vehicles, prioritizing re-
newable energy sources. Provide the necessary infrastructure and accelerate the pro-
gressive conversion of public transport fleets, captive fleets and private vehicles. 7
Promote social and technological innovation in order to improve people’s quality of 
life. 8
Improve the information network and its accessibility to provide useful information 
for improving management, and facilitate the public’s participation and decision ma-
king. 9
Foster shared projects and programmes to advance toward smarter cities (city proto-
col, networking, etc.). Use the city as a laboratory for new sustainable solutions. 10
17
Wise use of resources: 
5 from a consumer society to responsible 
consumption
DIAGNOSIS
We have advanced collectively in reducing consumption of materials, the use of 
more environmentally friendly products, and the responsible consumption and exc-
hange of goods and services. We are increasingly more aware of how important it is to 
have a service or be able to carry out an activity, rather than actually owning things or 
buying products. We are increasingly demanding more information about the origin of 
products, the production process and its impacts, the associated consumption during 
the use phase and the final disposal.
In this regard, various initiatives in Barcelona stand out: time banks for exchanging 
jobs and services, agroecological consumer cooperatives, markets for reuse of clothi-
ng and other products that have not completed their life cycle, programs for socializa-
tion of textbooks and educational materials, the Food Bank, etc.
Barcelona is one of Europe’s pioneer cities in the application of sustainable public 
procurement policies. The value of European governments’ public purchases is estima-
ted at 16% of European GDP, so they have a significant relative weight in the market. At 
the municipal level, the “Ajuntament + Sostenible” (“More Sustainable City Council”) 
Programme aims to incorporate ethical and social criteria, and generate demand for 
greener products and services. One of the main achievements of the programme has 
been the greening of contracts, equivalent to 96% of total economic volume.
However, the wide range of consumer goods from around the world, the sale of dis-
posable products, and certain consumption patterns and habits translate into a society 
that generates a lot of waste. In recent years, due to the economic crisis, waste gene-
ration has diminished. We have also made great progress in selective waste collecti-
on, thanks to the extension of organic waste collection means in the city, improved 
accessibility to containers, increasing household waste and recycling centres and the 
deployment of commercial collection. We have to reverse the idea that the more you 
throw away, the richer you are. We need to decouple economic growth from resource 
consumption and waste generation — dematerialise wellbeing. 
18 Citizen Commitment to Sustainability  2012-2022
LINES OF ACTION
Decouple economic development from resource consumption and waste generation. 
Dematerialise consumption, seeing ourselves as users instead of owners. Extend the 1
useful life of products (maintenance, recovery, repair and reuse) and share products 
and services. 
Improve consumer information on the social and environmental characteristics of 2
products (origin, durability, ecological production, GMOs, etc.), from producers and 
retailers. Require proper labelling.
Promote responsible consumption educational programmes. Reflect on the current 
situation of dwindling and finite resources, unnecessary consumption, money and op- 3
tions for healthier products for people and the planet, from childhood and throughout 
life.
Make responsible use of goods and services: collaborative consumption*, fair trade, 
local trade (zero mile concept), local, seasonal, organic and healthy food and genuine 4
handmade quality products.
Strengthen responsible procurement and purchasing by the public Administration, 
the private sector and the third sector. Incorporate environmental and social criteria 
in public tenders. Enter into contracts with social protection and social initiatives clau- 5
ses, through job placement centres or non-profit organisations. 
Promote responsible consumption networks (networks for exchanging expertise, 
goods and services, consumer groups and cooperatives, time banks, social markets, 
social currency, etc.). 6
Eliminate food waste at all levels (families, schools, canteens, restaurants) with coo-
peration from the production sector, services and food retailers (supermarkets, dis-
tributors, local markets, etc.). Link food retailers and food collection associations and 
improve redistribution. 7
Implement management models to move towards zero waste: prevention and reduc-
tion plans from the beginning, voluntary agreements, taxes, repair workshops, imple-
mentation of packaging return and reuse systems, eliminate single-use plastic bags, 
encourage exchange markets, etc. 8
Consider waste as a resource. Increase the proportion of waste collected selectively 
and the quality of sorting. Separate waste and dispose of it appropriately. Use house-
hold waste and recycling centres and the other options available for special collection. 
Launch information and awareness campaigns. 9
Improve waste management, giving priority to reduction, reuse and recycling – in 
that order – regardless of energy recovery considerations. Increase composting. Apply 
the criterion of proximity and responsibility in dealing with waste, and optimize trans-
portation routes. 10
19
6 Good governance and social responsibility: from sector-
based intervention 
to effective 
coordination
DIAGNOSIS
Governance is the process of decision making in organisations. Organisations that 
include good governance and social responsibility criteria in their operations seek to 
achieve social prosperity and collective benefit, valuing the general interest above 
personal interests and ensuring the highest quality of life standards for workers and 
partners, their families and society at large.
It is therefore essential to establish an ongoing dialogue with agents involved in 
organisations to identify and manage their expectations, to ensure their participation 
in decision making, keep them informed and be transparent, establish internal control 
mechanisms based on equity and justice, ensure a good working environment, green-
ing the organisation internally, and efficiently managing and using resources. This is 
the Administration’s responsibility, but it also applies to all organisations. More and 
more organisations are applying social responsibility strategies to implement and en-
force good governance codes. 
The challenge is to introduce and integrate these concepts and intangible aspects 
(beyond the purely financial: i.e., those related to the environment, society, reputa-
tion, intellectual capital, etc., which affect all stakeholders) as part of the organisa-
tion’s value. There should also be coordination between the various organisations. For 
example, in Barcelona the integration of the metropolitan area to the port, airport and 
the Zona Franca logistics and industrial area is vital.
Barcelona City Council faces the challenge of managing its great complexity – it has 
more than 2,000 buildings and about 12,000 employees in many departments and divi-
sions – transparently and efficiently.  
20 Citizen Commitment to Sustainability  2012-2022
LINES OF ACTION
Make very good use of resources (financial, human, material and natural). 1
Optimize organisations’ performance by improving internal and cross coordination. 2
Improve coordination between organisations working in the same sector and also 
among industries from the public, private and third sectors. 3
Ensure participation of stakeholders* in the decision-making of authorities, compa-
nies and organisations. Increase sensitivity to the needs of various groups, especially 
children and young people, as well as minorities and the poor. 4
Increase transparency: open data, observatories, indicators and monitoring reports. 5
Develop a socially and environmentally responsible organisational culture that cre-
ates long-term value in institutions, organisations and businesses. 6
Enhance personal and professional development of employees and partners, provid-
ing optimum working conditions and the necessary motivation. Ensure equal opportu-
nities. Include environmental and social criteria in training. 7
Evaluate projects in terms of social and environmental impact, and factor in the re-
sults in decision making. 8
Incorporate sustainability and continuous improvement criteria in organisations’ 
activity, and also at events (fairs, conferences, celebrations, etc.) and city works. 9
Maximise the exemplary nature of the public Administration. Make progress in the 
implementation of participatory budgets at the city and district levels. Strengthen and 
expand the “Ajuntament + Sostenible” (“More Sustainable City Council”) Programme. 10

7 People’s welfare: from a welcoming city to a cohesive 
society
DIAGNOSIS
A sustainable city cannot exist without a cohesive community that can take part 
fairly in economic and social progress, enjoying equal opportunities and well-being. 
Therefore, we have to ensure everyone’s access to a quality public education. 
Barcelona locals have full access to compulsory education, but the demand for pre-
school childcare is still not covered. The number of school dropouts has decreased and 
the percentage of the population with university education is on the rise. All citizens 
have access to healthcare and public health prevention programmes. In recent years, 
the foreign population has increased substantially. Efforts have been made to encour-
age the integration of newcomers, following the philosophy of offering equal services 
to all citizens, policies in which Barcelona stands out as an international benchmark. 
We have to work hard to provide access to housing for everyone, especially young peo-
ple and people with fewer resources. Recently, we have experienced socioeconomic 
changes of such magnitude that even the poverty patterns have changed. Due to the 
crisis, over 20% of the population lives below the poverty line. This situation must be 
redressed and we have to deal collectively to strengthen the cohesion gained, to not 
lose what we have, to reinforce the initiatives already undertaken – by the govern-
ment, companies and organisations – to ensure social welfare, create jobs and pay 
special attention to people at risk of exclusion. There are many organisations that de-

coordination, creativity and efficiency.
22 Citizen Commitment to Sustainability  2012-2022
LINES OF ACTION
Increase quality of life and human development opportunities, paying special atten-
tion to dependents. 1
Promote peaceful coexistence, founded on inclusion, equality, solidarity, respect and 
trust. 2
Ensure decent housing for everyone, developing economic and social policies. Fa-
cilitate access to housing for people who don’t have any and who need help to pay, 
maintain and/or improve it. Promote alternatives for acquiring and managing housing 3
(urban work-for-rent programmes, housing cooperatives, cloudhousing*, etc.). 
Ensure lifelong quality education, equitable and inclusive for all. Ensure access to 
public education and prioritize infant care. Emphasize the role of the educational com- 4
munity. 
Guarantee access to public health for everyone on equal conditions and ensure an 
excellent health care system. 5
Encourage a healthy lifestyle, with access to a balanced and varied diet, physical ac-
tivity and contact with nature. 6
Achieve stable and good quality jobs, adapted to the needs and possibilities of each 
person, harmonizing the interests of workers and employers with a work-life balance. 7
Eradicate poverty, through the integration of disadvantaged and vulnerable groups, 
and reduce extreme wealth. 8
Make culture a mainstay for the development of the city, as the capital of Catalonia, 
with receptiveness and openness to all cultures that enrich it. 9
Encourage community life and the activity of social networks (in-person and virtual). 
Bridge the digital gap. 10
23
8 Progress and development: 
from concern for 
sustainability to a 
sustainability-based 
economy
DIAGNOSIS
Services and shops have a dominant role in the city’s economy. Tourism activity has 
grown exponentially. In recent years Barcelona has become the top destination in Cat-
alonia, outranking the Costa Brava. Currently, the number of visitors is estimated at 24 
million per year, and tourism accounts for 10% of the city’s GDP. In contrast, industry 
has been delocalized.
Many organisations in the city already incorporate environmental and sustainability 
criteria in their design and modernization processes. Environmental management sys-
tems have become widespread. A new environmentally-friendly industry and business 
environment has been developed which is creating income and jobs. Barcelona is an 
environmentally responsible tourism destination and has been certified as a Biosphere 
World Class Destination.
But we must above all rethink the economic, financial and social model. We face 
the challenge of overcoming the economic crisis at the same time as the energy and 
climate crises. It is essential for the price of things to reflect social and environmental 
costs as we progress towards the decarbonisation of our economy. In terms of the city, 
we should stop seeing it as a commodity to be bought and sold, and to understand it 
as a service to people: habitability, comfort, support, etc.
24 Citizen Commitment to Sustainability  2012-2022
LINES OF ACTION
Encourage investment in the new economy of the self-sufficient and smart city, 
with a favourable environment to generate, attract and retain talent. Promote high 
added value initiatives, particularly those related to knowledge, creativity and in- 1
novation.
Internalise social and environmental costs, including them in the accounting 
books and publishing them. Incorporate these criteria in tax policy, establishing 2
tax incentives and deterrents (rebates, exemptions, subsidies, etc.). 
Look for prosperity within the limits of the planet, implementing ethical criteria 3
(social and solidarity economy, ethical banking, social responsibility, etc.). 
Move towards a low-emission economy, prioritizing the reduction of energy con-
sumption and promoting the use of low-impact renewable energy. 4
Establish lifecycle-based ecodesign and ecoproduction as priority procedures for 
creating products and services. Eliminate planned obsolescence. 5
Promote green jobs, defined as those that contribute substantially to preserving or 
restoring environmental quality (work in environment sector companies and envi-
ronment departments in other sectors). 6
Advance sustainable tourism in harmony with the territory and with positive re-
percussions on local communities. Work towards the joint responsibility of institu-
tions, the tourism industry and visitors in the efficient use of natural resources, the 
maintenance of environmental quality and the conservation of our tangible and 7
intangible cultural heritage.
Promote entrepreneurship, small businesses and cooperatives. Encourage small 
local shops and neighbourhood shopping areas. 8
Enhance public-private partnerships. Promote and strengthen collaboration be-
tween universities, business, Administration and associations to promote the in- 9
novation economy.
Find alternative indicators to GDP to measure social welfare (social balance, 
economy of the common good, human development index, happiness index, etc.). 10
25
9 Education and citizen action: from raising 
awareness to duly 
informed joint 
responsibility
DIAGNOSIS
Education and communication are vital tools for advancing our culture of sustain-
ability and contributing towards the acquisition of new values, attitudes and behav-
iours. The Administration has an obvious responsibility in this area, but it is a collec-
tive challenge and commitment. This is a job that never ends. 
We have made significant efforts from many sides, from organisations and the edu-
cational system, from the Administration and the media. Overall, this has resulted in 
an increase in the number of people who consider themselves to be well informed on 
environmental issues and also the number of people who say they have good environ-
mental habits.
The signatory network is a vital piece for promoting the Commitment values and 
objectives with constant activity of deliberation, exchange of experience and learn-
ing, and active, networked efforts. We can also consider the specific School Agenda 21 
Programme to have been a success. It won the United Nations HABITAT Program for 
its impact on thousands of teachers and hundreds of thousands of students and their 
families. 
Although we have more than 800 signatories to date (2012), we face the challenge 
of spreading the Commitment values to all individuals, organisations, institutions and 
companies in Barcelona. We understand that sustainability is the responsibility of 
each and every one of us and we have to move from words to action, to build together 
the city we want for ourselves and for future generations.
26 Citizen Commitment to Sustainability  2012-2022
LINES OF ACTION
Spread the culture of sustainability to all citizens. Advance from information to 
knowledge and to responsible action, individually and collectively. Leading by ex- 1
ample.
Provide ongoing momentum and support to education for sustainability in the 
education system (from kindergarten to university), encouraging a review of ap- 2
proaches and stimulating educational practices that trigger real changes in schools 
and in the environment.
Promote education for sustainability continuously in non-formal education (edu- 3
cational, occupational, cultural and leisure activities) and informal education (me-
dia, community action, etc.).
Ensure support and appreciation for the work of those who teach, giving them ad-
vice, training and resources. Promote educational research and innovation. 4
Educate and train citizens in the culture of participation. Boost and innovate the 
democratic processes at the city and district levels and within each organisation. 5
Strengthen the association fabric, other social groups and non-formal move-
ments as a citizenship school and transforming agent. 6
Energise volunteers with projects capable of involving publics of all ages and con-
ditions. 7
Promote shared responsibility for planning, management, use and monitoring 
of community-use areas and services: facilities, empty spaces, vegetable gardens, 
flower gardens, etc. 8
Strengthen networking to develop joint projects: consolidating isolated initiatives 
into a joint action and creating synergies. 9
Improve communication and display of educational and participatory processes 
for sustainability, as well as associated actions and results. 10
27
10 Resilience and global responsibility: from isolated 
responses to global 
action
DIAGNOSIS
Cities hold great responsibility in finding solutions, since they are responsible for 
much of the resource consumption and generate local and global environmental im-
pacts. Also, due to the high density of the population, the services and activities tak-
ing place and the existing infrastructure, cities are more vulnerable to risks, specifi-
cally those related to climate change. Barcelona is also a city particularly vulnerable to 
climate change because of its location on the Mediterranean area. It can be affected by 
drought, heat waves, flooding, increased likelihood of fire, salinisation of aquifers, etc.
To meet this challenge locally, we must be able to find innovative solutions to re-
duce health risks and protect infrastructures for supplying water, power, transport and 
waste management.
Barcelona  emits only 2.5 tonnes of CO2 equivalent per year per person, but even 
so, we must further reduce emissions or capture them (mitigation). We also need to 
include climate change risks in city planning to make our plans more adaptable to 
changes, more resilient. 
As Barcelona’s ecological footprint gets smaller, the city will be more independent 
from foreign elements, make less of an environmental impact and become more re-
silient. It is therefore necessary to move towards the goal of self-sufficiency, follow-
ing the strategy of adapting the quality of the resources to the projected uses (for 
example, using groundwater for cleaning or watering parks and gardens), to reduce 
consumption (reducing demand and increasing efficiency) and to produce everything 
we can locally.
Barcelona must also continue to participate actively, as it has until now, in build-
ing global responses through international networks or through bilateral relations, to 
facilitate the exchange of experiences and to feed and lead the debate in favour of a 
fairer society.
28 Citizen Commitment to Sustainability  2012-2022
LINES OF ACTION
Improve the ability of proactive and preventive action to reduce vulnerability. 
Governance and comprehensive risk management. 1
Protect the climate. Track, prevent and minimise greenhouse gas emissions. If 
they cannot be reduced to zero, they can be offset. 2
Prevent and manage the consequences of climate change: adapting infrastruc-
ture, ensuring the availability of water, minimising the effects on health, selecting 3
appropriate plant species, etc.
Advance toward energy self-sufficiency*: reduce energy consumption and in-
crease the contribution of local renewable energy to ensure supply. 4
Recover and promote local food production, improving safety, and move towards 
food sovereignty*. Protect and restore food production areas. 5
Plan water management properly, adapting quality for different uses. Leverage 
alternative water resources available: rainwater, grey and purified waste, ground-
water. Improve treatments for making these uses possible or return it to the envi- 6
ronment in optimal conditions.
Minimise the ecological footprint on the planet: the sea, wetlands, rivers, forests, 
atmosphere. Make the city responsible for its global impact. 7
Maintain the city’s international standing in terms of its commitment to sustain-
ability. In particular, encourage and lead sustainability policies in the Mediterra- 8
nean.
Cooperate with other cities and citizens. Promote social justice by promoting 
global responsibility. 9
Promote a culture of peace and non-violent culture, promoting the peaceful reso-
lution of internal and external conflicts. 10

Glossary
Cloudhousing
This housing concept enhances flexibility and the community to have the real estate market cater 
to people’s needs. The concept proposes buildings that combine apartments, common areas and 
services under a pay-per-use model, offering users maximum flexibility to adapt their housing to 
their changing needs. Each building is organized as a company that manages the resources needed 
to maintain the building and its infrastructure, and it features a manager that ensures the proper 
use of facilities. The yield depends on how each company manages the property, as it is primarily 
based on the savings achieved through wise use of resources and the bulk purchasing of products 
and services. As with cloud computing, where users pay only when using a program, cloudhousing 
is paid when housing and shared services are used. 
Collaborative consumption
Collaborative consumption, solidarity economics and access economics are some of the terms used to 
describe a social movement in which access to goods and services takes precedence over owning 
them. Collaborative consumption can be defined as the traditional way of sharing, exchanging, 
lending, renting and giving away, redefined by modern technology (Internet, global community), 
which allows making it much more efficient.  
Eco-neighbourhood
A neighbourhood designed entirely from the perspective of sustainability, from the planning stage 
to the construction and operation of buildings. The objective is to minimise the ecological foot-
print and promote quality of life and social cohesion. The idea was initially materialised in certain 
northern and central European cities (Stockholm, Hannover, Freiburg, etc.), which have become a 
model for the development of residential areas.
Energy self-sufficiency 
“Self-sufficiency” can be defined as the ability to supply one’s own needs without external assistan-
ce. In terms of ecology, a self-sufficient system obtains the necessary resources and re-processes 
all wastes and emissions within its ambit. Self-sufficiency means adjusting the city’s ecological 
footprint to its own boundaries. In the case of energy, we see self-sufficiency as obtaining all the 
necessary energy resources – and the by-product residues and emissions – within the same habi-
tat. We will be energy self-sufficient when the ratio between the energy produced locally and the 
energy consumed is 1 (or greater than 1).
Food sovereignty
The concept of food sovereignty was supported by the international peasant movement La Via 
Campesina (Rome, 1996). It is defined as the right of peoples to determine the agricultural and food 
30 Citizen Commitment to Sustainability  2012-2022
policies that affect them. This includes having access to and the right to use land, natural resources 
and healthy food. It also champions people’s right to protect and regulate production and internal 
trade with the aim of achieving sustainable development and ensuring food safety.
Green infrastructure
Network of areas with natural vegetation – landscaped or agricultural – that connects and recon-
nects the city with the land. The result is the free movement of organisms, the protection of ecolo-
gical processes and the flows that characterise them. Green infrastructures act as a multifunctional 
resource that provides ecological, environmental, social and economic services, making the city 
more fertile and more resilient.
Nature reserve
A local urban nature reserve is an area inside a city which features some natural properties and is 
managed in keeping with these values and their potential: restoring habitats, preserving species 
and maximizing the social benefit. These areas contain local minerals, flora, fauna and landscape, 
and are often of interest to the history of the city. The existence of a reserve network coordina-
ted and managed with common criteria within the city highlights the natural heritage, provides 
opportunities for environmental education, facilitates contact of citizens with nature and improves 
people’s quality of life.
Smart city
Although there is no exact definition of what a smart city is, it can be described as a city that uses 
ICT (information and communication technologies) to provide an infrastructure to assist in sustai-
nable development, the efficient use of resources, increasing the quality of life of people, social 
inclusion and citizen participation. In contrast to a digital city, a truly smart city uses infrastructure, 
innovation and technology, but also has an active and participatory society: people, talent, collabo-
ration and entrepreneurship are the driving force and soul of the city. The smart concept applies to 
all city services: mobility, utilities (energy, water, food), waste, buildings, education, health, emer-
gencies, citizen care, etc.
Stakeholder
Stakeholders are individuals and social groups which are affected in one way or another by the 
existence and action of a company and who have a legitimate interest, directly or indirectly, in how 
it operates, and who influence whether it achieves its goals and its survival. Future generations 
can also be identified as stakeholders. Examples of stakeholders: employees, shareholders/owners, 
business partners, customers, suppliers, social agents, public administrations, local communities, 
society, the general public, the environment and future generations.
