Abstract

The paper examines joint efforts made by local government, a non-governmental organization (NGO) and several community organisations, to improve through participatory processes the environmental conditions in the municipality of Moreno (Metropolitan Region of Buenos Aires). It provides insight into policies that create environmental citizenship, and explores the methodological and participatory basis of policy processes along with ways to strengthen them. Many of Moreno’s serious environmental problems affect households directly; residents face difficulties in securing access to drinking water and sanitation, waste is not picked up on a regular basis, and the rain runoff and sewage system is inadequate.
