Cross-cutting policies. Key challenges
The objectives are translated into cross-cutting policies that will be implemented during the upcoming period and are aligned with the key challenges identified in this plan.
Specific measures, with a timeframe, budget, an entity from the City Council in charge and a set of key milestones to achieve. The nature of the actions varies: some are designed for the short term and others for the long term, ensuring a cultural change and a steady transition towards a new Barcelona.
