An important issue is citizen participation in decision-making processes. As citizen they should have a important role in decisions. As a big cities we also have issues with old people (living in bad houses with no security and no many times with no neighbors) as we homeless people. I think it is important to give soft home to live as creatind policies, communities or ways to provide a good live to poor people. Improve the public transportation, that begins to show serious problems. 5.
