Mapa Colaborativo do Desenvolvimento Rural Sustentável (lit. Collaborative Map of Sustainable Rural Development) was created by the city of São Paulo to support the formulation of the Plan for Sustainable Rural Development, in accordance with the guidelines of the Strategic Master Plan for the Municipality of São Paulo - Law 16.050/2014 - which has democratic management as one of its principles: ?Art. 5, Paragraph 7: Democratic management is the guarantee of participation of representatives of different segments of the population, directly or through representative associations, in the planning processes and the management of the city, conducting public investments and in the formulation, implementation and evaluation of urban development plans, programs and projects". It also has participation as a strategic objective: ?Art. 7, XV - to strengthen an integrated, decentralized and participatory urban management". Mapa Colaborativo was released during the 1st Municipal Conference of Sustainable Rural Development and is available on the Gestão Urbana (lit. Urban Management) platform. Mapa Colaborativo do Desenvolvimento Rural Sustentável works as a tool that collects information about the location of farms as well as their main functions and characteristics, location and description of the urban gardens and of activities linked to ecotourism in São Paulo. Ecotourism workers or producers can mark themselves on the map, adding basic information such as contact details, type of project, means of access, etc., as well as photos.
