Barcelona + Sostenible
Barcelona + Sostenible is the network of more than 1,300 organisations committed to environmental, social and economic sustainability that is collectively building a responsible city for people and the environment.
The network is formed by citizen entities, business and commerce companies, educational centres, universities, professional colleges and administrations. Each organisation joins the Barcelona + Sostenible network by signing the Compromís Ciutadà per la Sostenibilitat 2012-2022 and contributing to transformation of the city with its actions. The members of B+S promote sustainability measures in their organisations, sharing good practices, and developing projects with others forming part of the network.
Compromís Ciutadà per la Sostenibilitat was published in 2002, this is a referential document for all citizen organisations wanting to contribute to the improvement of Barcelona. The Commitment was renewed for another 10 years in 2012.
