HERITAGE E SVILUPPO URBANO: IL LEMMA DELLA ENCYCLOPEDIA SPRINGER SUI SUSTAINABLE GOALS DELL’AGENDA 2030

"Urban heritage is a complex and often dissonant social issue that addresses preservation and development approaches characterized by high levels of complexity and ambiguity, as it involves different social actors and communities with divergent values, interests, meanings, and perspectives. While initially applied to traditional urban planning measures, regional studies and sustainability scholars and practitioners have increasingly utilized new lens in approaching it. Their growing efforts aim at (1) describing, if not explaining, how the multiple dimensions of many sustainable issues perceived in heritage, valued at the place-based level, can easily transcend urban boundaries with complex retroactions, and (2) exploring new ways of addressing policies in much broader regional contexts, and even trying to find new alliances between cities on the international level."

Analizzando, da diversi anni, lo sviluppo urbano e territoriale nelle sue dimensioni culturali e ambientali, oltreché economiche e sociali, la Fondazione Di Vittorio ha fatto parte del pool internazionale degli autori dell'Encyclopaedia on Sustainable Development Goals - Springer, in corso di pubblicazione, contribuendo significativamente al dibattito scientifico in materia.

Il lemma Urban Heritage Conservation and Development, è ora on line sulla piattaforma SpringerLink.
