Partners
The team is the result of the converging interest and action of partner institutions:
URBinLAB @ FA/CIAUD as a platform of expertise in research and training of architects and urban planners;

The Municipality of Sintra as the local authority responsible for urban planning and territorial development.
This multi-institutional arrangement provides valuable data and expertise and stands as a privileged platform for validation and dissemination of results.
