Implementation of 15-minute city urbanism models

Overview

The concept of the ‘15-minute city’—an urban planning model designed to ensure essential services are accessible within a short walk or bike ride—is being discussed and implemented in various Latin American regions.

In Cipolletti, Argentina, urbanist Carlos Moreno presented his theories on the ‘15-minute city and the 30-minute territory’ to discuss reducing travel times and improving regional mobility.

In Mexico City, the government is actively applying proximity urbanism through the ‘Utopías’ initiative. This model utilizes public spaces to provide free essential services, culture, and sports within a 15-minute radius of residents, specifically targeting underserved areas to reduce social and territorial inequality.
