The Conference develops will investigate the relationship between the University and the urban reference systems from three perspectives. The first one is internal. It concerns how a sustainable campus is planned and which models of spatial, environmental, technological and energy structure the campus can have. A second point of view is internal and investigates the synergies between universities and the urban system in terms of the ability to trigger complex processes of regeneration of urban fabrics and the creation of new economies. The third perspective is transversal and develops the University’s relationship with institutions, bodies, associations, companies, businesses and its impact on the economic-social and territorial aspects.

The event is organized in collaboration with RUS – Rete delle Università per lo Sviluppo Sostenibile as part of the pre-festival of ASVIS – Alleanza per lo Sviluppo Sostenibile
