“

The project aims to introduce an alternative in terms of sustainable development based on the production of food in poor communities with great demographic concentrations to alleviate the situation of those populations at risk, acting positively on issues of social, economic and environmental relevance.

The project aims to set up community garden nuclei in the east side of the city of São Paulo, in an effort to improve the living conditions of those more afflicted by the social scourge, involving them in a participatory project through the creation of job opportunities, vocational training for participants and their dependents and the systematic generation of income with the selling of the produce obtained with the project.

Its scope of action is chiefly concentrated in the east side of the city of São Paulo, an area characterized by a high concentration of unemployed, the low schooling levels of its residents, high crime rates and for the lack of job opportunities for youths and teenagers. Income and urban-jobs generation, adding value to the produce of the community gardens and the social integration of the communities with the environment are the project’s main working axes.”

Santos and Sorocaba have joined the bicycle as a means of transport

http://thecityfixbrasil.com/2012/02/29/santos-e-sorocaba-ja-aderiram-a-bicicleta-como-meio-de-transporte/

The incentive for the use of bicycles among municipalities is quite simple: whoever crosses the ferry with the bike, pay nothing. If you walk, spend $ 2.20. For this reason, the use of bicycles already accounts for 8% of all locomotion made ​​between the two cities. Another important contribution is the bike lanes Santos: In addition to the topography of the urban area, nearly all flat, favoring the use of bicycles, cycling the network structure is also very good. There are even exclusive semaphores, which ensures the safety of those who adopt the alternative means of transport.

The Buses of Brazil: Connectivity - Intelligent Transport

Solution

http://unfccc.int/secretariat/momentum_for_change/items/6639.phpEricsson has deployed an innovative transport solution based on 3G/WCDMA mobile broadband for URBS who is responsible for the operation and supervision of Curitiba’s transportation and transit systems. The system uses Ericsson’s F3607GW module, a fast mobile broadband module with reduced power consumption and high-performance GPS.

A machine-to-machine communication solution developed by local partner Dataprom gives the Curitiba public transport authority URBS a wide range of information about its fleet. URBS can now monitor bus routes, time spent at bus stops, speed, distance traveled, and times for arrival and departure. Fleet management systems, controllers can access information about and monitor their fleet.

More efficient public transport, reduced emissions and energy use, and a modern mobile broadband network for bus passengers: mobile broadband modules from Ericsson are making life better for people in the Brazilian city of Curitiba. Slide14

The only things expanding faster than new techniques and technologies to build a faster, stronger web are the expectations of web and mobile users.Velocity is the best place to learn from peers, exchange ideas with experts, and share what has worked (and equally importantly, what has not worked) in real world applications. The focus is on practical, large-scale web development, presented by experts.Slide37

:Confirm the importance of walking issues at political and policy levelsProvide

an international platform for an inclusive discussionAcknowledge the research, practice and promotion undertaken so far and to highlight best practice

Identify

the need for future research and opportunities for funding future networking.International delegates attending a Walk21 conference do so to have the opportunity to hear from leading professionals about

programmes, policies and projects that really work and explore those themes in action through walking tours and visits arranged in the host city.WALK 21 CONFERENCEShttp://www.walk21.com/conferences/default.aspSlide38
