CLLD Lisbon - Integrated Action Plan

The CLLD Lisbon Network - Community-Led Local Development aims to develop effective models of local co-governance of the city that favour the implementation of actions articulated between the social, educational, cultural and economic sectors to promote inclusion and social cohesion, employment and education in disadvantaged areas in the urban context of the Municipality of Lisbon. Those urban areas are called BIP/ZIP – Priority Intervention neighborhoods. The Local Strategy of Development (LSD) general objective is to contribute to the reduction of the socio-urban fracture identified in the city of Lisbon, through three strands: 1) Increase in employment levels and stimulation of local economy; 2) Higher levels of school qualification; 3) Reduction of generational poverty
