The Cultural Project for the Inclusive Metropolitan City

To design an inclusive metropolitan context leads to configure actions, thoughts, links between space and society based on a holistic and integrated approach to development and optimization of the urban and social capital. It means exploring the relationships between the cultural maturity of the communities involved and the degree of safety/security, accessibility, mobility and quality of public places with their new metropolitan significance.The conceptual elaboration, the best practices and the competences of national and international supervisors, lead to the definition of a framework that positively affects the project for the Metropolitan City of Reggio Calabria. The aim of the planning criteria is to create a joint project (taking into account urban planning, economic, and social aspects) pursuing a higher spatial quality that makes it possible to manage the resources (material and human) in a more sensible way and in tune with the dynamics of development.
