We are living in a critical moment, a reality marked by environmental and socio-economic limits that requires innovative and realistic forms of action and planning. This is what regenerative urbanism proposes, a new approach based on utopian pragmatism that seeks to restore balance to the urban territory by designing systems that allow it to adapt and transform. It is a methodology that defines models that do not consume available resources, but rather generate new ones that ensure compatibility between economic and social prosperity and nature. Santander, Hábitat Futuro (Santander, Future Habitat) is the city model created from this methodology, a proposal for the transformation of this city for the year 2055. It is an open model based on innovation and citizen participation that prepares and adapts the territory for the different scenarios to come. Santander, Habitat Futuro is a guide that directs the commitment of the different social, economic and political agents towards a common goal: to achieve a circular, sustainable, resilient, vertebrate, prosperous, vital and inclusive city. A model that, due to its innovative nature, can serve as an example to other intermediate cities around the world.

La proliferación de huertos urbanos en las ciudades no es un fenómeno circunstancial: responde a una serie de necesidades económicas, urbanísticas, ambientales y sociales que reflejan un cambio profundo en la concepción de la ciudad y en su relación con el entorno agrícola. El presente estudio analiza la situación actual de la agricultura urbana y aporta propuestas metodológicas concretas para introducir el cultivo agrícola en la ciudad y en los edificios. Tras abordar la relación entre agricultura y sostenibilidad, el libro describe la experiencia de algunas ciudades que han introducido con éxito la agricultura en la planificación urbana (Viena, Toronto, La Habana, Rosario, Barcelona y Girona) y proporciona una serie de criterios y estrategias de actuación en los ámbitos del urbanismo y la construcción. Pensado como guía básica para conocer y desarrollar proyectos de agricultura urbana, el libro se dirige a arquitectos, paisajistas y urbanistas, así como a todas aquellas personas interesadas en los huertos urbanos.
