Stefano Stanghellini, Presidente URBIT
The challenge of urban regeneration is faced on several fronts and with very diversified approaches. One of the main aspects is certainly that of the parts of the city which, having lost their original function for a while, are in a state of neglect. Another fundamental front is that of the parts of the city which, while retaining their original function, have a poor quality urban fabric, with obsolete buildings and an inadequate urban structure. The vastity of the areas and their other characteristics, the functions to be installed or resettled, the size of the investment to be activated, and many other specific aspects, form an unprecedented mix of conditions that requires, every time, the search for original solutions. Innovation concerns a plurality of contents: the strategic vision, the new functions to be installed or the original ones to be rethought, the interpretation of the social demand, the content and form of the urban project, adherence to the SDGs, the management structure and financing of an operation generally based on public-private partnership, and much more.
The presentation of some of the most stimulating projects conceived for various Italian cities has several objectives: enhancing the best experiences and making their protagonists known, feeding the urban planning debate with new contents, spreading good practices and stimulating emulative behavior.
