Participatory planning in Palermo for socialudinnovation and technologic enhancement. A living Lab territorial game toward city plan

摘要

The approach that is offered by Living Labs, particularly for their territorialudperspective, can represent one of the ways in which to set the transitionudfrom the stage of a “free game”, about scenarios and visions, to theuddefinition of the plan social demand, specifically within the framework of audreal experience of the citizenship life. In this sense, such an approach mayudrepresent the guarantee of an effectiveness of the plan.udDespite the limits, which the previous failures represent, we can remarkudthat through the dimension of openness, roles co-presence and competenceudof those stakeholders that are involved in Living Labs, the participationudprocesses – from the perspective of a planning – does not end but continuouslyudtend to a gradual improvement, both of the quality of the projects andudof those cohesion factors, which lead to the constitution of spontaneousudpartnerships.
