11.00 – 13.00 - Session 1: Circular neighbourhoods

Each territory in the city constitutes an urban ecosystem in which different realities act: schools, businesses, institutions, formal and informal meeting points. The neighbourhoods, especially the suburbs, must be able to meet the wishes and needs of citizens: sociality, education, mobility, production. In practice, the enhancement of neighbourhood parks, tactical urban planning, 30 zones and home-school mobility
