General Information

Next Planning is a small NGO with a team of 2 employed, 8 members in the governance board and many partners. Our year budget is about 50 000 euros, which comes from the municipality of Grenoble, research project and structural fund from foundation FPH. Our action is articulated around three axes ; : 1) field work to create concrete project and involvement of the inhabitants in urban projects, principaly in the popular districts 2) projects of research-action on city planning, housing, public space, food policiy... 3) networking at diffferent level (national, european and international) to exchanges and organize advocacy campaign on human rights.

Mission and Objectives

We have been developing participatory urban planning projects in working-class neighborhoods for the past ten years. We support the creation of residents' committees and the animation of Popular Urban Planning Workshops (APU) and Assembly of the Commons in order to promote processes of self-organization and transformation of public policies. We carry out actions, experiments, research-action & capitalization around the themes of public space, the right to housing, the right to the city, housing, food, digital... We participate in the commons, in the construction of an agenda for the right to the city and in the emergence of a new municipalism that reinforces the social and ecological transition of the territories.

How can you contribute to the Network in your country?

We can contribute to the network by sharing our approach based on a field work in the popular neighborhood to co-create urban projects with inhabitants. We are convinced that it is really important to involve the inhabitants in solving social problems with a human rights based approach. We can help disseminate Anna Lindh's programs to our network in popular organizations, French cities and our network in the Mediterranean. We can also defend projects in connection with the city of Grenoble, recognized for its social, urban, democratic and cultural issues.

Why do you want to join the ALF Network?

Next Planning participated in the Team 4 Team project organized by Alda and Médar in order to reinforce the exchanges between the civil societies in France and in Turkey. Following this project, it was imagined to continue this action within the Anna Lindh network. This is an important step for our organization to share our knowledge and continue to learn from other experiences.
