Asunción Unites Us
Asunción Unites Us (span. Asunción Nos Une) was a citizen movement with the mission of improving the quality of urban life in the municipality of Asunción. It utilized indicators, based on four parameters, to monitor and measure urban conditions: mobility and transport, environment, social equity, and citizen security. They also used citizen perception surveys for monitoring. Several years after its founding, the movement joined the Paraguayan Network for Sustainable Cities (Red Paraguaya por Ciudades Sustentables).
