This document summarizes a presentation given at the 52nd International Conference on Achieving Green, Healthy Cities in Bristol, UK in July 2015. The presentation discussed the Capibaribe Park project in Recife, Brazil, which aims to reweave the city through green and public spaces. It involved analytical research conducted by a multi-disciplinary research group, as well as a convergence process including workshops, debates and citizen participation to develop guidelines, plans and projects. The strategies for the Capibaribe Park focus on recovering environmental connections, improving spatial dynamics in the city, and establishing guiding concepts for the project.
