On 14th November 2016, eight mayors from Brazilian cities visited Barcelona for a peer learning day on
urban management organized by UCLG, Metropolis, FNP and the City of Barcelona. Their goal was to identify
opportunities and challenges in transferring the exemplary policy practices of Barcelona to their own
cities. The mayors and their teams visited the Barcelona Metropolitan Transportation Company, the waste
treatment facility, the Mediterranean Ecopark, the business and entrepreneurial centre, Barcelona Activa,
and the 22@ urban renovation project. The programme included a briefing, site visits, and a dynamic debate on
how to share experiences and apply the lessons learned in their own cities.
