These were the core questions that students from the Post-Master’s Program ENVIM \u2013 Environmental Management and Engineering<\/strong> at ISIGE \u2013 MINES Paris \u2013 PSL<\/strong> explored during their urban field workshop in Turin, Italy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Over the course of one week, the students immersed themselves in the Aurora district<\/strong>, a former industrial area adjacent to the city center that has experienced significant urban challenges<\/strong> and transformations over the past four decades.<\/p>\n With the support of researchers from the Politecnico di Torino \u2013 Aurora Lab<\/strong>, the Politecnico di Milano<\/strong>, and ISIGE Mines Paris-PSL<\/strong>, and thanks to the generous support of Circoscrizione 7<\/strong> (the local district administration), the students were tasked with imagining the 2030\u20132050 urban agenda<\/strong> for this dynamic and complex neighborhood.<\/p>\n Organized into three interdisciplinary groups, they focused on distinct but interconnected visions of ecological transition:<\/p>\n Inclusive Urbanism<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Healthy Urbanism<\/p>\n<\/li>\n Net-Zero Urbanism<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n Working in a charrette-style format<\/strong>, the students first developed an empirical, evidence-based, and themed diagnosis<\/strong> of the neighborhood. They then proposed strategic concepts and action plans<\/strong> aimed at fostering the district\u2019s sustainable and inclusive transformation.<\/p>\n \n On Friday, April 11, 2025<\/strong>, the students presented their findings and recommendations to representatives of the City of Turin<\/strong>, members of the local NGO Fondazione Comunit\u00e0 di Porta Palazzo<\/strong>, and a group of urban researchers and practitioners working on the Aurora district. The presentations sparked intense and promising discussions<\/strong>, opening up new avenues for collaborative thinking between academia, local government, and civil society.<\/p>\n This workshop is part of the ENVIM program\u2019s broader commitment to experiential learning and international collaboration, preparing future professionals to address complex environmental and urban challenges with rigor, creativity, and a systemic perspective.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"featured_media":2544,"template":"","actualites-formats":[15],"actualites-thematiques":[20],"class_list":["post-2543","actualites","type-actualites","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n<\/p>\n
