Descrizione del progetto
Una piattaforma per i cittadini che vogliono migliorare il proprio quartiere
La partecipazione dei cittadini è ritenuta uno dei più importanti strumenti dal basso verso l’alto per soddisfare le esigenze delle comunità locali. Esistono numerosi esempi di coinvolgimento e mobilitazione dei cittadini. Il progetto gE.CO Living Lab, finanziato dall’UE, creerà una piattaforma di scambio allo scopo di mappare i gruppi formali e le comunità informali di cittadini alle spalle di FabLab (laboratori di fabbricazione), incubatori, spazi di co-creazione e centri sociali creati in spazi urbani vuoti rigenerati. La mappa fornirà una panoramica su scala europea di risorse comuni generative e agevolerà inoltre le connessioni tra di esse. Nel complesso, il progetto svilupperà kit di strumenti in grado di fornire informazioni sulle migliori prassi di caso che si basano sulla condivisione e la collaborazione tra cittadini, nonché sulla creazione di nuovi partenariati tra istituzioni pubbliche e comunità locali.
Obiettivo
gE.CO Living Lab aims at creating a platform for bringing together and supporting formal groups or informal communities of citizens who manage fab-lab, hubs, incubators, co-creation spaces, social centres created in regenerated urban voids. These innovative practices are considered generative commons, because they are based on sharing and collaboration between citizens and establish a new partnership between Public Institutions and local communities, setting forth new models of governance of the urban dimension based on solidarity, inclusion, participation, economic and environmental sustainability.
However, these experiences design a scattered scenario of different legal and economic models which scalability is extremely difficult without appropriate tools. Also, their support through the traditional means of the public runs the risk of compromising their participatory character.
To fill these gaps gE.CO built a consortium of experts: Universities and non-profit and for-profit organizations in order to: i) bring together generative commons using a digital platform for collaboration that will map citizens’ initiatives as well as those Public Institutions engaged in new forms of partnership with local communities. This way, generative commons and Public Administrations can finally be connected in a new network able to promote the exchange of good practices and legal solutions; ii) evaluate a group of pilot cases in order to understand which socio-economic, cultural and legal factors make self-organized experiences sustainable and Public Institutions helpful for their development; iii) use the results of the evaluation for scaling up sustainable generative commons and innovative local policies: best practices, recommendations as well as legal solutions will be developed for supporting the emergence of new generative commons through shared, public and open access contents.
