“Urban suburbs can no longer be defined simply as areas removed from the historical core or as standing in opposition to central areas, but as a cross-cutting condition that concerns the physical expansion of a city, which has been particularly pronounced in the last two decades. Suburbia includes all those more densely populated areas, which often experience degradation, marginality, social unease, insecurity and poverty”.
This is how the document issued by the Parliamentary Commission for the Suburbs begins. The purpose of the document is to pinpoint the objectives that public policies, even with the involvement of private investments, are called to pursue: redesigning and modernizing functionality and services, practicing social inclusion, creating a local labor market, regenerating the settlement habitat and securing the livability of public spaces.
The conference must be framed within these goals. On the one hand, it aims to keep the attention of urban culture on suburbia alive, and on the other, it seeks to present an overview of the original programs that banking Foundations and Cassa Depositi e Prestiti have been implementing in partnership with Public Administrations and municipal districts. Compare and contrast evaluations that focus on the suburbs of Milan, Naples and Turin will engender useful suggestions and stimuli for the further development of integrated regeneration policies on other urban realities. The comparison among cities is enhanced by the presentation of an important European experience, that of the city of Marseille.
