No full textCreating a Waterproof City along the Mediterranean Sea
No full textThe methodology provides the study of some case studies that
have been characterized by the experimentation of policies and strategies
for successful adaptation and mitigation of hydraulic risks, in particular
with regard to the preparation of climate adaptation strategies that
have been tested successfully in some cities like Copenhagen, Rotterdam,
Vancouver...The main goals and results of the research are related to
the replicability of the analyzed best practices, with the aim of providing
the municipalities of Southern Italy, and in particular of the Calabrian
and Sicilian areas, with the appropriate tools and strategies to create
waterproof cities with the full involvement of the settled communities
Dalle aree interne del mezzogiorno nuove sollecitazioni alle politiche per lo shock territoriale post emergenza
No full textThe problems and stresses of the contemporary city are due to natural and health factors. The
South, which fails to catch up and resolve the effects of historicized inertia, suffers calamities by letting itself be overwhelmed by events and proving to be not very proactive. the post-pandemic city, deeply transformed in its basic convictions, leads to a profound systemic reflection on the crisis and on the plausible interrelations between the pandemic and environmental and climatic changes. The resilient and post-pandemic city is an
adaptive city, which knows its vulnerabilities and works to reduce them; both climate change and health epidemics are an urban shock and the best common response that can address the two risks is precisely adaptation through the strengthening of strategic plannin
Planning the transition of cities. Innovative research approaches and trajectories
No full textIn light of the ecological, digital, and jus transition envisaged by the EU for reaching the ambitious Green Deal objective by 2050 and its inherent complexity, this paper focused on the nexus between Ecosystem Services and Key Enabling Technologies as a potential and significant element for the future development of promising research trajectories in urban planning. The transition of cities has become a top priority in academic and policy debates, attracting increasing attention from scholars and policymakers. Ecosystem Services are crucial elements for human well-being, and despite their inclusion in urban plans, there are still issues to address requiring innovative research approaches and trajectories to explore for planning the ecological, digital, and transition of cities. Two main elements are explored in this contribution: 1) the centrality of ecosystem services and the potential of related key enabling technologies for the planning of the ecological and digital transition of cities; 2) the current ecosystem services assessment analytical approaches characterized by a spatially explicit perspective presenting relevant implications for the planning dimension. As a result, the paper outlines a research-based conceptual framework aimed at defining promising innovative research approaches for new trajectories to be explored in urban planning
Nuovi scenari di rigenerazione urbana per le città dello Stretto nell’emergenza pandemia
No full textThe resumption of investments for a new vitality of territories and urban areas due to the pandemic state of emergency will look at the synergistic integration of urban regeneration and development policies with investments in infrastructures at all levels of scale. Everything will be played on the synergy and synchrony, of actions, policies - their implementation, management - and the economic effects of the strategies implemented. It will be necessary to identify the “priority” urban areas on which to concentrate investments and the “sectors”, or rather the systems, which better condense and dissipate energy and efforts, producing positive effects on the territory, in terms of relaunch, attractiveness and ecological environmental balance. It will be necessary to identify the strategic, active, propulsive areas. The highest level of synchro-modality is within the so-called daily urban systems. In these systems, mobility enables networks of different infrastructures
and a variety of multimodal nodes, of emitting centers of human activities; it intercepts flows but also unresolved issues, in terms of risk, of infrastructural and economic gap. The Strait Area, which is in fact a daily urban system, lends itself to experimentation with a new model of resilient, smart and “fast” cities.
This is understood as the ability of territories and urban organisms to respond to external solicitations by absorbing them and restoring their functions in the shortest possible time; for cities, it means being ready for the future, changing by adapting their resources to face the new challenges that arise. It means guaranteeing territorial continuity (land-sea) and short times for the city, maximum 30 minutes.
The paper will analyze the “daily urban system” thus delineated, in relation to its functioning and the condition of “resilience”. The complex nature of the hydraulic and hydrogeological problems and the balance of the last decades therefore highlight the vulnerability of a territory on which inappropriate intervention has been carried out more frequently and extensively than necessary. In this context, the awareness of natural risk and the adoption of defense measures more than ever a rational and multidisciplinary approach, aimed at the ecological-environmental balance of natural and anthropic systems
Spinte spontanee o strategie competitive? Lettura dei processi significativi a Reggio Calabria,
No full textIl paper propone la lettura di un caso di città media, Reggio Calabria, che ha visto consolidarsi negli anni tendenze e spinte competitive spontanee funzionali (e non) a strategie o vision di successo. Dagli anni in cui attraverso azioni spontanee e interventi “solidali” si sono generati sistemi di relazioni sovrapposti, reti di diversa geometria e densità poco coerenti ad un disegno complessivo di rilancio –quasi sempre mancante- , ma che hanno prodotto beni, servizi, diversità e ricchezza di impostazioni e contenuti degli strumenti attivati, si passa, oggi, ad una fase nuova in cui è possibile leggere i segnali di approcci reattivi, più attenti ad intercettare la domanda locale espressa o latente e a ricercare percorsi strategici volti a garantire la “messa a sistema” degli interventi
Psycho-Urbanism. Gli spazi dinamici della città contemporanea
No full textLa città contemporanea è dominata dal movimento e dalle infrastrutture; gli spazi urbani sono caratterizzati dal pendolarismo e dal passaggio, sono dei paesaggi del flusso che vorrebbero essere città ma si rivelano, invece, dei paesaggi (progetti) urbani incompiuti, privi di capacità comunicativa, dispatici in attesa di un contagio emotivo. Percorrere
questi luoghi vuol dire raggiungere qualcos’altro e non beneficiare delle immagini ed
emozioni che potrebbero essere destate con una sosta “empatica” che coinvolga la mente,
che induca sentimenti e solleciti suggestioni dal forte significato emotivo. Per la riconversione (e riconfigurazione) di questi luoghi inespressivi occorre fornire alla progettazione architettonica ed urbana degli strumenti abili a costruire degli spazi pubblici aperti
ed inclusivi che possano coniugare le esigenze dei diversi fruitori dello spazio pubblico;
occorre conciliare la forma dello spazio pubblico con l’esperienza concreta di chi lo vive,
con un’attenzione particolare rivolta ai modi in cui i cittadini interpretano, usano e trasformano lo spazio urbano, ed analizzando la configurazione spaziale attraverso un approccio scientifico basato sul coinvolgimento interdisciplinare che consenta la migliore
configurazione di uno spazio che risponda ai diversi stimoli sensoriali coinvolti nella percezione della qualità spaziale intrecciando immaginari densi di significato emotivo
