What's next?
Of course, it is impossible to resolve all our problems in a year or two. There is still plenty left to do in order to promote quality of life and environmental sustainability in the Prestes Maia apartment complex. Many of the problems that the project addressed continue: not enough care taken of common areas, little participation in the municipal recycling program, and barriers to full inclusion of the area in the city's public services. But the transformations - in the built environment, in the relationships between people, and in our own perspectives - that have occurred as a result of the project are impressive. Our vision of a healthy and sustainable local environment has been strengthened by developing practical experience and new skills, and is now stronger than ever.
