Proyecto urbano integral, parque norte de Quibdó : Quibdótejiendo caminos hacia la transformación social

Abstract

THE NORTH PARK, is an urban proposal born from the concern to improve the quality of life in the north zone of Quibdó. This territory is marked by violence, a lack of opportunities for youth, and an absence of public spaces that promote social and cultural integration. The lack of urban spaces that encourage human development in this area has deepened serious social problems. Given the above, urban and architectural design are recognized as tools with the potential for social transformation, especially when they are oriented toward creating safe, accessible, and meaningful spaces for the community. Based on this vision, the project proposes the design of an urban system of parks, walkways, and public facilities that act as transformers of dynamics in northern neighborhoods, promoting dance, sports, and education as core activities for integration, gathering, and revitalization. The research was developed with a qualitative, quantitative, and analytical approach, featuring an urban analysis that considered social, economic, and spatial variables. This urban analysis served as a guide for meaningful design decisions, allowing for responses to real problems with solutions sensitive to the location. Beyond transforming the physical space, this project aspires to open paths toward a deeper social transformation, where the inhabitants of northern Quibdó can have quality spaces, feel like part of the city, and collectively build a future with more possibilities.
