Planificación urbana en la Amazonía colombiana: prácticas ciudadanas, participación, autonomía y (co)diseños para la vida.

This article analyzes the social production of urban space in Florencia, Caquetá, Colombia, from a critical perspective of planning. The study uses ethnographic methods and participatory mapping to describe the notions and practices of urban planning at the state and citizen levels. With the latter in mind, we focus on two neighborhoods in Florence, which makes it possible to question the idea that state planning is by itself the bearer of progress and development. The results obtained vindicate the recognition of civic practices and other local forms of planning (in the sense of building and dreaming) to (co) design new urban spaces for life.
