Author 3: Gaia Uguccioni

  • Landscape and Democracy

Every landscape hides a meaning that is not explicit in the ordinary forms. Is a concept that lies utterly beyond science, that holds ideas, impressions and ineffable complexities that depends on how we are affected by it and from the values we associate to it.

  • Concepts of Participation

Partecipatory processes are a form of access to a paradigm which the people had a little part in creating. Starts with the reappropriation of knowledge by those who are affected by it and evolves as a strategy in which the powerless develop, create, gain control and systematize their own science.

  • Designing

In the modern broad cities is evident the disassociation from community and environment and the human behavior appear antagonistic to sustainability. Holistic insight should be pursuit to guide the design of urban forms and to find new directions for a reformulation of intents and ideals of fulfillment.

Author 4: Nahian Zobaid

  • Concepts of Participation
