Participation in International Projects

URBiNAT: Urban Innovative & Inclusive Nature - Healthy Corridors as drivers of social housing neighbourhoods for the co-creation of social, environmental and marketable NBS (nature-based solutions). A 5-year project funded by the EU H2020 Programme, focused on the regeneration of under-served urban neighbourhoods through the co-creation of Nature-Based Solutions (NBS). NBS are implemented together to form Healthy Corridors which act as drivers in the transformation of social housing neighbourhoods, and the wellbeing of residents. Horizon 2020 theme LCE-31-2016-2017. EC Contract No:776783. (2018-2023)

COST Action CA18137 MCMH - European Middle Class Mass Housing. By crossing different approaches focused on Architecture, Urbanism, Planning, Public Policies, History, Sociology, our network allows a wider understanding of MCMH sprawl, deepening on-going researches and focussing on the existing case studies. (2019-2023)

COST Action CA21103 CircularB – Implementation of Circular Economy in the Built Environment. Facing the increasing concerns about the negative environmental impacts of buildings, governments and general society worldwide have been seeking more efficient and sustainable constructions. (2022-2026)

COST Action C20 Urban Knowledge Arena. The objective of the Action has been to investigate the emerging field of integrated knowledge, experience and know-how, which is needed in today’s highly complex and delicate urban development and regeneration processes. It introduced the concept Urban Knowledge Arena (UKA), i.e. a platform/forum/arena, which can give knowledge support in an urban development activity(2005-2009);

RE-LEARNING PUBLIC SPACE: An Action Research Event, an interdisciplinary international even - part of the AESOP series “Unstable geographies, dislocated publics” of the AESOP Thematic Group Public Space and Urban Cultures.
