Book Synopsis "Next Generation EU" Cities by : Anna Lisa Boni
Download or read book "Next Generation EU" Cities written by Anna Lisa Boni and published by Ledizioni. This book was released on 2022-01-17 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the world enters a new year, the Covid-19 pandemic is still upsetting our daily lives. And as 75% of EU citizens live in urban areas, cities are the most prominent stage both for responding to the health crisis, and for seizing opportunities to recover and move forward. Meanwhile, in 2020, EU countries agreed to Next Generation EU, a €750 billion recovery package that represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity.This report argues that cities should be given more say over how post-pandemic national recovery plans pan out between here and 2026, when all projects are supposed to be wrapping up. Indeed, the success of the EU recovery plans will hinge upon what cities do, or they don’t do over the next five years. How are cities rethinking their role within the “twin” green and digital transitions? How can they achieve gender parity, reduce inequalities, and preserve a vibrant cultural life?
Download or read book Borderline City written by Bentlin, Felix and published by Universitätsverlag der TU Berlin. This book was released on 2021-04-01 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even before the spread of COVID 19 across the globe during the crisis of 2020, cities and regions acted as venues and drivers for a dualistic development dynamic by both creating and dissolving borders. The results obtained from various university seminars and a European summer school form the basis for a crisis manuscript, while serving to review the planning and design activities in different European cities and regions. For the first time ever, a network of students from the urban planning and design departments at 19 European universities have defined common requirements for crisis-resistant and people-friendly urban planning in Europe: On the one hand, crisis-related experiences act as catalysts for fundamental social, economic, and ecological changes, and, on the other hand, they accelerate changes that are already underway with regard to urban development policies. The crisis and border situations explored in this joint investigation extend beyond the mere operating principles of European cities and regions. In fact, as an endurance test and didactic example, they provide a guide for crisis-proof urban renewal in Europe. They lead the way in building a bridge between the European architecture and planning disciplines to create vibrant border landscapes. Bereits vor der weltweiten Ausbreitung des Covid-19-Virus im Krisenjahr 2020 waren Städte und Regionen Austragungsorte und Treiber einer dualistischen Entwicklungsdynamik von Entgrenzung und Abgrenzung. Ergebnisse aus der Hochschullehre und einer europäischen Sommerschule eröffnen ein Palimpsest der Krisen und eine Überprüfung europäischer Planung und Gestaltung von Städten und Regionen. Erstmals erarbeitete ein Netzwerk aus Studierenden von 19 europäischen Universitäten im Bereich Planung und Stadtgestaltung eine Formulierung gemeinsamer Anforderungen für eine krisensichere und menschengerechte Stadtentwicklung in Europa: Einerseits sind Krisenerfahrungen Impulsgeber für grundlegende Veränderungen in Gesellschaft, Wirtschaft und Ökologie, andererseits wirken sie als Beschleuniger bereits vorhandener Veränderungen in der Stadtentwicklungspolitik. Die gemeinsam hinterfragten Krisen- und Grenzsituationen zeigen nicht nur die Funktionsweisen europäischer Städte und Regionen auf. Vielmehr vermitteln sie als Belastungs- und Lehrproben einen Leitfaden für einen krisenfesten Stadtumbau in Europa. Wegweisend entwickeln sie einen europäischen Brückenschlag der Architektur- und Planungsdisziplin zur Gestaltung lebendiger Grenzlandschaften.

Book Synopsis European Cultural and Creative Cities in COVID-19 Times by : V. Montalto
Download or read book European Cultural and Creative Cities in COVID-19 Times written by V. Montalto and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Empty cultural places, drastically reduced mobility and tourism blockade as an effect of COVID-19 confinement measures not only generate an evident economic damage to cultural institutions, companies and workers but also create a strong economic and social discomfort at city level. Although many EU member states are now entering into a de-confinement phase, many cultural places remain closed or subject to stringent physical-distancing measures. In these new circumstances, one main condition for the sustainability of most cultural and creative sectors (CCS) has been almost entirely disrupted: the possibility to have a public 'live' as a source of revenues to meet operating costs, putting more than seven million jobs at risk in Europe. Using cultural jobs statistics from Eurostat and the JRC's Cultural and Creative Cities Monitor, this report identifies highly vulnerable cultural jobs and creative cities. Despite the unprecedented challenges raised by the COVID-19 pandemic, some cities are already experimenting new event formats to better reach local inhabitants and nearby communities, while ensuring the financial sustainability of cultural activities. Both national and city governments have issued a wide range of policy measures (from compensatory grants to tax reliefs) to maintain alive Europe's cultural capital, while giving cultural institutions, companies and workers the time to get prepared to post-COVID times. Proximity tourism could indeed help compensate losses from international tourism, while new cultural services that meet societal needs (educational, health, environmental...) would help restore the European social fabric and people's well-being.
Book Synopsis Coping with the Pandemic in Fragile Cities by : Gabriele Pasqui
Download or read book Coping with the Pandemic in Fragile Cities written by Gabriele Pasqui and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-02-03 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the effects of covid-19 crisis on cities and urban areas and proposes approaches and solutions to invert the pandemic's negative impact. The covid-19 crisis has had significant impacts on public health, on the everyday lives of millions of people, and on the use of urban spaces at all levels. All over the world, cities have been at the forefront of a crisis that have worsened socio-spatial inequalities between regions and inside urban areas. The book examines three aspects of the connection between pandemic and urban issues: the relevance of spatial and territorial variables in the explanation of pandemic dynamics and consequences in fragile cities; the assumption of radical uncertainty as the conceptual framework for a new approach to urban planning, in a phase of raise of public investments; and the design of urban policies aimed at facing the material and symbolic effects of pandemic on the practices of use of spaces and places, in a context characterized by a plurality of populations and forms of life.
Book Synopsis Cultural Mega-Events and Heritage by : Davide Ponzini
Download or read book Cultural Mega-Events and Heritage written by Davide Ponzini and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-03-21 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses case studies of heritage-rich cities that hosted mega-events to discuss emerging challenges, controversies, and accomplishments. The future of mega-events has never been more uncertain. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has introduced an unparalleled level of doubt regarding the kind of mega-events that will take place in the coming years. This book arrives at a quite unique moment of reflection. Prior to 2020, cities were already questioning the traditional format of mega-events (e.g. Olympics and Expo) while other cultural mega-events have been spreading and gaining popularity, thanks in part to typically lower costs of infrastructures and venues, far more adaptable arrangements, spatial distribution and time frame for hosting. In these ways, they have already been demonstrating higher flexibility in which to respond to future health and safety constraints. When it comes to the relation to the existing city, cultural mega-events have been planned, implemented, and studied far more than any other. By leveraging the richness of cultural mega-events, this multidisciplinary collection deepens the intersection between events and cultural heritage. The chapters in this book provide a new theoretical framework, critical questions, and relevant case studies to argue that the nexus between mega-events and heritage is a key challenge for many cities in Europe and beyond. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of European Planning Studies.
Book Synopsis Urban Mobility After COVID-19 by : Hannah Abdullah
Download or read book Urban Mobility After COVID-19 written by Hannah Abdullah and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resumen: "para cumplir con el Pacto Verde y volverse climáticamente neutral para 2050, la Unión Europea debe reducir las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero relacionadas con el transporte en un 90%. El transporte es uno de los pocos sectores en el que las emisiones son más altas en la actualidad que en 1990 y, a pesar de los esfuerzos de mitigación, siguen aumentando. Las ciudades son cruciales para lograr este ambicioso objetivo, ya que representan el 40% del transporte total por carretera en la UE. Los gobiernos locales y las partes interesadas urbanas también están impulsando la transición hacia la movilidad sostenible a través de la experimentación urbana y la innovación. La crisis del COVID-19 ha demostrado que se pueden lograr cambios drásticos en el transporte urbano si existe la voluntad política. Sin embargo, las medidas tácticas implementadas a menudo han sido iniciativas temporales o independientes que no están integradas en las vías de transición de la movilidad a más largo plazo. Este volumen explora cómo las ciudades de Europa pueden desarrollar planes de movilidad a largo plazo más sólidos y socialmente justos, permitiéndoles contribuir de manera efectiva al objetivo climático intermedio de la UE de reducir las emisiones en un 55% para 2030 y su objetivo de cero neto para 2050. Examina ambas oportunidades para acelerar el cambio, desde reformas de políticas hasta intervenciones urbanas, asociaciones de múltiples partes interesadas e innovaciones en la economía social, así como las barreras para la planificación y transformación a largo plazo, desde la aceptación pública hasta las limitaciones políticas, financieras, legales y técnicas"
Book Synopsis Urban Design and Planning for Age-Friendly Environments Across Europe: North and South by : Elisa Pozo Menéndez
Download or read book Urban Design and Planning for Age-Friendly Environments Across Europe: North and South written by Elisa Pozo Menéndez and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-09-29 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book represents a multidisciplinary and international vision across different countries in Europe that are facing similar challenges about ageing and quality of life in present cities. It is divided in three main topics from the global context of health in cities and reduction of health inequities to the current research of different study cases, focusing on residential models and the relationship with the built environment. The third chapter illustrates best practices with some study cases from different cities in Europe. Friendlier environments for older people come together with the need of innovation, smart and updated technologies, healthier environments and mitigation of climate change. Health re-appears nowadays as one of the priorities for urban planning and design, not only for the communicable diseases and the effect of the pandemics, but also for the non-communicable diseases, that were also triggering the wellbeing and equity of our cities. Indeed, the Covid-19 pandemic has highlighted health inequities and vulnerabilities of those areas of the city that were already deprived and facing other health problems, such as obesity, diabetes, social isolation, respiratory problems or mental health issues, specifically applying for vulnerable groups. Older adults have been one of the most affected groups from the pandemic’s threats and derived consequences. In this context, the care crisis arises intertwined with the design and planning of our cities, where there is an urgent need to regenerate our environments with a perspective of sustainability, inclusion, and health prevention and promotion. From the global urban challenges to the specific contextualisation of each city and study cases, each chapter offers an updated insight of the main questions that we should consider to address urban planning and design from the perspective of ageing and social inclusion in European cities.
