COMMUNAUTE D’AGGLOMERATION SOPHIA ANTIPOLIS
A new institution on the scene of public territorial action, the “Communauté d’Agglomération Sophia Antipolis” decided from its inception to enter into a collective reflection about its territory’s future.
In 2001, the CASA thus initially set down its basic principles in a Charter. At their heart lies the political desire to place “man at the center of his own preoccupations”, to encourage development only to the extent that it is beneficial to the fulfilment of people living or working in the region and to the enrichment of their common heritage.
The agglomeration project puts the results of this reflection into perspective and makes them coherent by giving priority to its context, from local to international level.
By reasoning this way, by giving priority to the links between the economy, social life and the environment, the elected representatives thus intend to carry out local public action with the aim of sustainable development for the Sophia Antipolis agglomeration.
