A commonly addressed aspect of urban planning involves the integration nature-based solutions (NBS). Before applying NBS, acquiring stakeholders' viewpoints, e.g., city councils, local governments, and academia, contributes to successful application thus mitigation global challenges such as climate change, loss biodiversity, water, food scarcity. The present study explores how stakeholders across Europe view role NBS in planning. thematic analysis was conducted identify patterns, themes,...
'Nature-based Solutions' (NbSs) are considered key actions to address urban regeneration and foster greener cities. Such based on collaborative governance arrangements, where public administration, private companies, research citizens cooperate test manage innovative solutions. Reflecting a quadruple helix logic, these arrangements display different actors leading responsibility for maintenance while cultivating relations. Hence, can assume the shape of public-led, private-led, research-led...
Abstract This article studies the implementation of a policy for prevention problem gambling in metropolitan area Turin (Italy). The research adopts theoretical lens offered by street‐level bureaucracy framework to understand how social workers develop individual capacities highly discretional tasks. So far, relation between discretion and capacity has been scarcely investigated academic field. To fill this gap, paper presents results case study on local bureaucrats use their margin redesign...
The circular economy is becoming a field of experimentation to trigger site-specific laboratories oriented towards connecting material flows and citizens’ practices. Despite their wide use, critical perspective the transformative paths these Urban Living Labs (ULLs) still missing. This paper compares followed by two such experiments, one in Amsterdam (The Netherlands) other Turin (Italy). To this end, we build an analytical framework that targets three dimensions: unconventionality,...
In recent decades; the balance of power between institutional and economic actors has radically changed; with a significant impact on modes dynamics governance. broad array experimental practices co-production; Living Labs (LLs) represent promising mode collaboration among public bodies; research centres; private companies citizens. By means LLs; aim to co-produce policies; breaking out traditional policy schemes find new solutions collective problems. On an urban scale; such tools have come...
This paper explores the strategies for reviving urban greening in post-industrial landscapes through nature-based solutions (NbSs). The case of Turin was selected to investigate peri-urban farming practices at old FIAT premises Mirafiori Sud area. Starting 2010s, City launched new regeneration projects transform degraded into creative living labs (ULLs) experimentation. data were collected by reviewing literature available from public sources, including project documents (deliverables,...
Abstract In the attempt to foster circular economy (CE), cities are increasingly adopting urban living labs (ULLs) as sites of co-production aimed at testing alternative solutions based on reuse products, reduction consumption and recycling materials. Taking this perspective, our study adopts an exploratory research design discover pragmatic implications emerging from a case study. The City Turin joined proGIreg, European project that entails regeneration former industrial districts by means...
Cities with their innovative capacity are key places to address critical climate, environmental and health challenges. Urban experimentations, such as Living Labs, can represent a starting point reintroduce resources into the production cycle reduce impacts, embracing paradigm of circular economy (CE). According recent studies, Labs at city scale could generate significant benefits, improvements in quality life positive impacts on citizens’ health. 1 This paper aims presenting case Torino...
Abstract The management of protected areas has been recognised as a particularly complex policy field, with many interacting actors and frequent conflicts. How policies survive potential or actual conflict is matter sustainability; manipulation can modify the roles perceptions to achieve outcomes closer desired ones—at least, by enacting coalitions. article investigates governance reform in Lombardy, Italy, focusing on dynamics sustainability amidst opposition. It examines how Lombardy...
Le food policy stanno ricevendo un crescente interesse per varie ragioni legate al ruolo del cibo e dei sistemi in grandi sfide, dal cambiamento climatico alla giustizia sociale, salute benessere umano delle specie animali, sostenibilità territorio urbani.Questo contributo si propone di analizzare interpretare questo processo, una prospettiva multi transcalare, affiancando integrando sguardi geografici con quelli altre discipline (economia, diritto, scienza politica), leggendo...
The global project e.INS ecosystem - Ecosystem of Innovation for Next generation Sardinia is intended to support Sardinian small and medium enterprises (SMEs)’ innovation sustainability: in particular, our research group focused on SMEs operating the tourism cultural heritage sector, highlighting those marginal places. To achieve this, proposing a network between different municipalities strongly recommended create single destination equipped with compelling storytelling. Following slow...
