"Italy in Proximity" toward a Human-Scale Italy thoroughly proposes forward-thinking recommendations for policymakers, urban planners, and community activists. By envisioning a future where proximity and polycentric development are embedded in the DNA of Italy's cities and territories, the book lays the groundwork for a more sustainable, livable, and interconnected Italian urban landscape. We want to conclude this collective book with a call to action—a decalogue manifesto for reimagining urban spaces in a way that harmonizes with the human scale, fostering environments where communities thrive and sustainability is a lived reality.
