Conference “River Banks as a Space for Citizens Integration” The Baltic Sea Cultural Centre Gdansk, March, 2010

It’s the longest river in the Iberian Peninsula. Rises in Spain (Serra de Albarracín), crosses all Portugal from one side to the other, flowing into the Atlantic Ocean near Lisbon. Tagus River and its proximity to the ocean represent, since the very beginning, an imperative role in the city’s military, social, cultural, and economical development

EGEAC and our intervention in the city

EGEAC is a Lisbon Municipality’s public company. Our main social object is to manage and preserve cultural heritage, as well as Theatres and Cinemas that belong to Lisbon City Hall; production of cultural actions and events, including festivals, shows, Festas de Lisboa (Lisbon Festivities with over attendances), street events and other acts of the same nature. It’s also our duty to bring culture and events in urban spaces to all kind of audiences, promoting social inclusion within the city. The main cultural equipments/activities managed by EGEAC are:

Castle of São Jorge : 1 million visitors/year

Monument to the Discoveries: visitors/year;

Puppet Museum: visitors year

Fado Museum : visitors/year

Municipal Theatre - Maria Matos

Municipal Theatre - S. Luiz

Municipal Theatre - Taborda

Cinema - São Jorge

Lisbon Festivities

If we didn’t have the river, our activities would be very different for sure The river is very important to us, in the meaning that symbolically is absolutely connected with the city, and also because some of our cultural facilities are located near the riverbank

The Castle was originally built geographically close to the river on purpose

The Monument to the Discoveries pays honour to all those that went abroad by water, discovering new worlds

Nor only we use the riverbank to make street activities, we also include water themes in them

Even Fado, being the traditional Lisbon song, would probably be a different type of music, if it wasn't the river: - subjects of faith; people who work in the docklands; sailors who never came back

With the new works in the city, a 2 nd airport and a 3 rd bridge over Tagus River on the way, and with the intervention on Pombaline Downtown, the case study we’ll present you next, Lisbon will continue to have great cultural and touristic business branches for us to continue our activities, making it a continuously better city for all that live there, or for the ones that come to visit us during all year.
