Resumen
La transformación de los mercados tradicionales de barrio en centros comunitarios multifuncionales es un ejemplo de creación de espacios inclusivos, sostenibles y estéticamente agradables que cumplen múltiples funciones más allá de su propósito principal. En este artículo, se examina el enfoque multifuncional adoptado en el proyecto de renovación del mercado de Āgenskalns en Riga (Letonia) y se estudia cómo este tipo de transformaciones pueden repercutir en el bienestar de la comunidad y en la inclusión social, al tiempo que se subraya la necesidad de creatividad metodológica para garantizar que el impacto pueda captarse adecuadamente. El documento sostiene que, a pesar de sus limitaciones, los datos sugieren que se han producido multitud de cambios, y la importancia relativa y el impacto del mercado parecen ser significativos para la salud y el bienestar de los residentes locales. Además, el estudio subraya la necesidad de reconocer formas inesperadas de impacto y, al mismo tiempo, estar preparados para ajustar los repertorios metodológicos a fin de evitar la imposición de métricas inadecuadas a una situación compleja.
