<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Summer school \u201cWalking Cities\u201d is dedicated to walking in cities and to cities that walk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The interdisciplinary experience of the School offers a plurality of perspectives and analytical tools<\/strong> to help design policies, projects, and actions <\/strong>for making urban environments and services more conducive to everyday life based on walking and active mobility, and for better integrating them into urban mobility services and infrastructures of contemporary cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Summer School is organised as a one-week residential intensive seminar in Cagliari, from 26 June to 1 July.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n The participation is primarily addressed to PhD students, but is also open to graduate students, post-doctoral fellows, young researchers, professionals and public officers <\/strong>interested in the topics of the School.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Besides theoretical and methodological lectures, during the Summer School seminarial activities the participants will conduct a fieldwork on a case-study area in Cagliari<\/strong>, allowing them to experiment and deploy different tools and techniques for observing, interpreting, and representing urban space and social practices in relationship to walkability and mobility patterns, and will then outline proposals for policies and spatial interventions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To arrive at outlining such proposals, the participants will carry out the fieldwork under the supervision and accompanied by a series of methodological lectures and seminars by invited lecturers<\/strong>, aimed at applying spatial research methods regarding analysis of walkability, mobility patterns and social practices of use of space, exploring the relationship between the quality of urban space (continuity, balance, safety, comfort, accessibility, interest and attractiveness) and inhabitants’ and city users’ perceptions, attitudes, and relations with that space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Following the fieldwork seminar, the participants will be engaged and coached by invited lecturers to design integrated solutions, including interventions on urban space and possible innovative policies and services. aimed at improving the walkability of the study area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Aula 2\u00b0 floor<\/em><\/em> “ex Presidenza”, Palazzo Cugia<\/em> 14:00-14:30 Introduction<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Institutional welcome address Presentation of the Summer School <\/p>\n\n\n\n 14:30-16:30 Lectures “Analytical approaches”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWhat about walking in contemporary cities?
