Abstract

Abstract:

This essay aims to analyse a seminar cycle talk about urban space organization from an interdisciplinary point of view. The weekly meetings move around the research of converging ideas, participatory planning and new perspectives to be included in the territories to improve the life quality of some social categories, in particular in the Naples case study. The seminar objectives regard the problem of the marginalized sight of children, families, women, the LGBTQIA+ community and disabled people. Each day described is nourished by the interventions of pedagogists, sociologists, representatives of local, regional, and national public institutions and operators from Third Sector, Associations and International Bodies. These prominent figures would want to change societal relationships and reduce the distance between the universities and the city places, to shape a new conformation of urban fabric, as well as the restructuration of social space through best practices.
