GENERAL OBJECTIVES, RESEARCH QUESTIONS AND SCIENTIFIC RELEVANCE

The world is experimenting an economic slowdown as result of inflation in a large part of the countries, and the consequences of the coronavirus of a lower supply, shortage of materials and finished products, as well as regional problems of the armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine that have impacted instability in geopolitical, economic and governance balance.

Therefore, the present study proposal aims to reflect on whether these changes can affect the evolution of public policies, finances and politics in cities, in particular, tools, projects and instruments for sustainability in a context of metropolis and governance.

It is possible to share and collaborate in the common challenges facing your residents of your geographical area, you can overcome these pitfalls. It is possible to walk a solidary concept in the public sector, or it is only possible to implement the collaborative economy among particular users for better governance.


In conclusion, the collaborative economy has spaces of expansion in areas such as medicine, science and technology that could trigger the production frontiers, of knowledge with a greater generation of economies of scale of the fragmented initiatives of individuals, forming groups and that transcend communities.
