Call for book chapters

02/02/18 | EXPERIENTIAL WALKS
experiencing, interpreting, representing the (multisensory) environment
Barbara E. A. Piga, Daniel Siret, Jean-Paul Thibaud (Eds.)

Call for BOOK chapters contributions on Experiential Walk for fundamental, applied or action research on the topic of experiential walks for investigating the urban sensory environment. By collecting theories and case studies applications the goal of this book is twofold: on one side it aims at presenting an overview of the applications of environmental walks through the lenses of different disciplines, on the other side it depicts an interdisciplinary framework of theories and practice on the subject. By doing this, it aims at showing possible bridges among the various approaches in order to inspire a mutual influence and to encourage interdisciplinary perspectives in research, education, and the professional practice.

Level: Master of Science \ Language: English; written Italian required.
Eligibility: attended a course or internship with the supervisor
Topic:  The Laboratory of Climate Change, Risks and Resilience (CCRR-Lab) in collaboration with labsimurb proposes the drafting of two or more thesis on the mitigation and adaptation to climate change, with particular deepening of heat waves. The thesis will be developed within the research activities that are carried out by the CCRR-Lab and the students could take advantage of the relationships with Italian and foreign partners of these researches. The thesis will deal with one or more analytical, representative, evaluative, planning and design aspects of mitigation/adaptation to climate change.

Theses

24/01/2018 | MSc Thesis on Co-design methods for urban regeneration between participation and e-participation
Level: Master of Science \ Language: English
Eligibility: attended a course or internship with the supervisor
Topic: Several co-design methods have been applied to drive and facilitate urban regeneration processes towards higher level of social acceptance of physical transformations. Collaborative design, participation, e-participation and many more approaches provide different opportunities to facilitate inclusive process of urban regeneration. A critical exploration of different methods will lead to the construction of a taxonomy of tools and devices available in order to offer to faciltators guidelines to set up processes to be tailored on the basis of local resources and available assets.
Context: co-design, participatory planning in international and national context
Keywords: co-design, participatory planning, e-participation, policy innovation, SDG9, SDG11
Supervisor: Eugenio Morello | Co-supervisor: to be defined
Timing: starting in Spring 2018, approx. length six months (min.)
Internship: possibility to join the internship at Labsimurb
Planned activities: Exploring co-design methods available to urban regeneration; critical understanding of co-design approaches; construction of a taxonomy; considerations on policy innovation of design and planning processes.
