Abstract(s)

The purpose of any territorial strategic planning process, in its urban or environmental component, is to influence the future dynamics of the city and its area of influence by making coordinated and consensual decisions, that will be carried out by political, economic and social agents. Strategic planning is the key to achieving a 21st century city, according to the Challenges of the New Urban Agenda (III Habitat Conference of the United Nations, Quito, 2016). These challenges are to plan a city with this multiple approach: Compact, Inclusive, Connected and Resilient. In this sense, this study makes a methodological proposal for the development of a Strategic Plan as an instrument capable of merging and articulating the physical planning of the land (urban, urbanizable, rustic and protected), with the socio-economic strategies of the city, so that the development was matched to the requirements and needs of each moment, given the flexibility of this tool to design new scenarios, such as the selected case of Mérida, autonomous capital of Extremadura (Spain).
