Esperienze, pratiche e approcci bottom-up per il welfare. Dalla scala locale a quella intercontinentale

The Covid-19 emergency has emphasized the fragilities of our contemporary cities, but at the same time has opened reflections on new solutions and interpretative perspectives. The national and international debate has brought up to date issues such as: public health, the vulnerability of environmental resources, the role and quality of public spaces and the well-being of those who live in them, the potential of open spaces of proximity, social participation and overcoming inequalities. In this perspective, the research analyzes innovative bottom-up practices able to generate spatial and social planning that, using both the virtual and the real and concrete dimension of the territories concerned, are able to react to a "trend of precariousness already directly or indirectly experienced and somehow metabolized" in which the crisis is an opportunity to become aware of the potential of resources despite everything available (Bovone L. 2017).
