• Resumen

  • At the dawn of 21st century, Algeria has undergone major upheavals in its political, economic and social structures. The emergence of real vehicles of change give only one choice, that is to integrate into the global system, considered to be a milestone in any development and which was favored by the Algerian economic context in the early 2000s. These years were also marked by the country's commitment to sustainable development, introducing various laws and new planning instruments to reinforce the challenge of the living conditions for the inhabitants. It seems that a real "participation policy" was born in Algeria at minor scales including cities, but whose impact and evaluation remains in place! The aim of this study is to highlight the participation of inhabitants, their roles, capacities and the obstacles encountered in creating positive changes in their urban spaces lived. An assessment study of some pilot projects for rehabilitation and urban improvement is considered, which involved five ZHUN (New Urban Housing Zone), developed with the participation of inhabitants in Algiers, Tizi-Ouzou, Bechar and Oran. The experience of urban improvement at Daksi district in Constantine is also treated. Our objective is to better understand the participation of the inhabitants, between theoretical discourses and concrete actions. What changes will there be for the Algerian city of tomorrow?!
