Abstract

This article provides insights on the urban regeneration project conduced in the densely populated centre of the “Costanzo Ciano” neighbourhood of Pia-cenza. Financed by MIBAC - Ministry of Heritage and Culture through the Creative Living Lab programme, the project is con-figured as a participatory urban regenera-tion action (Placemaking) aimed at test-ing various possible solutions for a more structured future renewal intervention. The organisational formula adopted dis-tinguishes through the active involvement of the inhabitants at both the design and realisation stages. The output consists in the product to which the inhabitants have contributed but also, and most im-portantly, in the social relationships which have been formed, through which, the functional plan for the future renewal inter-vention has been laid out. The experience coherently follows the URBACT method principles while its cultural and practical implications refer to both the “dilemmas” theme1 posed by the current European debate regarding the strategic develop-ment of public spaces and the Placemak-ing tool in the Living Labs 2.0 formula2, for an innovative governance straddling theory and practice.
