Medellín, from fear to hope: Urban and social transformation analysis of the city

Abstract

Informal settlements are currently an undisputed reality in cities in many emerging countries. They have been consolidated as an alternative form of barrial training by the lower social classes. These phenomena result in a large number of problems of health, exclusion, violence and crime due, among other factors, to the low presence of the state in these areas. Medellín has been the victim of this type of urban occupation in recent decades, creating a climate of fear and insecurity in the city, making it the most dangerous city in the world in 1993. However, over the last 15 years, the emergence of new drivers of change in different areas of the city has allowed for a process of change, improvement and inclusion of the most disadvantaged social classes since the implementation of new social and urban policies. Medellín has thus become a global benchmark in what has already been coined as “Social Planning”. Moratal Ortolá, F. (2015).
