New paradigms of urban life: proximity, well-being in cities and territories

New paradigms of urban life: proximity, well-being in cities and territories

The international conference explores how our cities are changing and what new paradigms will define urban life in the 21st century. Starting with an introductory speech on the value of time, proximity and quality of life, the programme brings together prestigious experts national and international from urban planning, architecture, economics, mobility, sustainability, artificial intelligence, cultural heritage and new ways of living.
During the thematic sessions, key challenges such as climate adaptation, the city of recovered time, the economy of proximity, human mobility and the future of urban intelligence in the transformation of our territories will be analysed.
This event is particularly significant, as it is the last major conference on the theme of the CNAPPC’s 2021-2026 council. It also represents a milestone in the strategic action taken by the CNAPPC and its Scientific Committee in support of the Urban Regeneration and Law currently under consideration by Parliament. We are particularly proud to actively contribute to the development and progress of this legislative proposal, which embodies a renewed commitment to a more sustainable, inclusive and proximity-based urban future.
The conference proposes a comprehensive approach to building more humane, resilient and liveable cities, where proximity, social cohesion and everyday well-being become the new compass for contemporary urban planning. The meeting culminates in a renewed vision of a new urban humanism that will inspire policies and projects for decades to come.

On May 15th 2024, in Pesaro, the case of Medellín was discussed: the city of Medellín transformed its image from the world capital of drug trafficking to a benchmark in urban innovation. Following the elimination of Pablo Escobar and the dismantling of the drug cartel, Medellín was named “Most Innovative City in the World” in 2013, thanks to its integrated public transportation system and investments in environmental and cultural initiatives. During the “Urban Regeneration” conference, architect Jorge Pérez-Jaramillo shared his experience in urban planning in Medellín between 2012 and 2015, highlighting key projects such as Parque del Río and the Unidades de Vida Articulada (UVA). These initiatives helped rehabilitate dangerous areas and promoted social cohesion across the city.
