Abstract

Attention to “participation” as an inclusive form for redesign and urban regeneration represents the interesting news of the national and international urban planning debate. In the plurality of experiences and approaches produced, this work tends to highlight the originalities of the approach developed within the CAST project at Potenza.

It is an initiative promoted by the world of association in a program of the Basilicata Region, aimed at promoting youth creativity. “The city as an object on which to express the creativity of local communities in terms of urban development and regeneration” is the main theme of the experience developed in about three years of activity on the territory that has generated a number of significant contributions: a proposal defining possible addresses for a city’s urban regeneration process, experimentation in the “Poggio Tre Galli” and “Zona G” districts in Potenza and finally the design of a “Virtual Urban Center” prototype to accompany the widespread participation processes in the government process of the city.

In this paper, attention will be given to the proposal, starting with the experimentation of the VUC prototype, of the establishment of a UC for Potenza, in that moment, when the Municipal Administration is launching discussion of proposals towards the large container of transformation projects/urban regeneration represented by the ITI (Integrated Territorial Investment) that the City of Potenza is drafting under the ERDF Operational Programming 2014–2020.
