DIFFERENTIATING INTERVENTIONS (RESIDENTIAL/ECONOMIC ACTIVITY).
REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT can be of different natures and meet expectations - sometime conflicting - of different stakehoders. Public Sector, therefore, shoud be able to control the specific nature of the development, to reach specific goals. With the recent economic downturn, the need to better "select" the nature of the real estate developments is remarkable, to avoid, on one hand, to admitt developments with no or negative social impacts and, on the other hand, to promote the models that, in the current situatiom, seem to be more promising in terms of long term economic (e.g. industrial/innovative and knowledge real estate development and redevelopment schemes) and social impact (social/affordable housing).
The meeting will mainly face the following questions: how to strategically and operationally "drive" and control the planning and development processes in order to achieve more "targeted" outcomes, in terms of nauture of the developments? What could be the strategic framework for the decisions and the tools to be adopted to better control the type of developments?
