in partnership with PREDIF – State representation platform for people with physical disabilities, Spain
The insufficient accessibility for all of our cities is worsening further as a result of the barriers produced by climate change that make, with abnormal temperatures and uncomfortable and tragic weather conditions, the development of the collective and individual life of people in particular referring to processes of aging, marginality and fragility of the population. Processes that, together with those deriving from the health emergency, assume more destabilizing roles and effects on the inclusion and accessibility of cities and territories having been verified that the most vulnerable people have seen their level of autonomy more reduced. All this requires, in order to identify new solutions, multiple rethinkings regarding approaches, innovation of tools, re-balancing of priorities and integration of policies.
The meeting aims to compare policies, plans and projects that show consistency with the necessary re-interpretation of urban functioning. The basic question could be: how to interpret public spaces in relation to the conditions imposed by the health emergency, with attention to the most fragile and marginalized categories, for cities that are more resistant to climate change.
A moment of discussion also extended to other European experiences on significant cases to guide and direct public administrations but also other subjects involved in the debate to reason and understand what is being done, how it is proceeding and what are the prospects but also how it is believed to be able to reach them.
