Abdoul Aziz Diarra

At Université de Lille, I'm pursuing a Master 2 in Political Science, specializing in local public policy and inequalities. My training includes project engineering in urban policy and citizen participation.

For my research thesis, I analyzed citizen participation in the Concorde project in Lille, an ANRU urban renewal project. I conducted semi-structured interviews with four institutional stakeholders and reviewed ANRU agreements to identify barriers and emerging participation practices.

I formulated five principles for renewing participation in urban renewal projects. My academic work also includes a collective survey for the Union départementale des centres communaux, with interviews, mapping, and a written report.
