Civic design and citizen labsUrban commons and municipalismNetwork meetingNational

Italian national gathering of proximity practices: social cooperatives, neighbourhood associations, community welfare and informal groups. It is convened by a network of third sector promoters (CNCA, Legacoopsociali, Federsolidarietà, ACLI, Forum Disuguaglianze e Diversità and others) and each edition is prepared by a local committee: Genoa 2015, Bologna 2017, Taranto 2019, Brescia 2022, Naples 2024, Turin 2026 and Ancona in 2028. Three days of panels, walks and shared meals. Its centre of gravity is social cooperation rather than urbanism or civic tech.

Rete di promotori nazionali (CNCA, Legacoopsociali, Confcooperative Federsolidarietà, ACLI, Forum Disuguaglianze e Diversità, Consorzio Nazionale Idee in Rete, Italia che Cambia e altri) con un Comitato Locale nella città ospitante
