Reviews

“Urban Regeneration and Community Empowerment Through ICTs, De Filippi and Cocina provide both a comprehensive international state-of-the-art and an empirical case … Delivering this in under 140 pages is an achievement that will be useful to researchers, students, and practitioners alike. … The book format enables De Filippi and Cocina to position the compelling experience of MiraMap within global good practice and therefore constitutes a useful companion for those in search of applied theory and detailed, inspirational case studies.” (Ian Babelon, Journal of Urban Affairs, June 27, 2023)

Author Information

Francesca De Filippi: Architect and PhD, is Associate Professor in Architectural Technology, director of the Research Centre on Habitat in the Global South (CRD-PVS) and Coordinator of the Master’s Programme “Techs4change: Design for Social and Technological Innovation in Development” at Politecnico di Torino (Italy).  Scientific interests are mainly addressed to appropriate technologies and their implementation at different scales (district/city, building, component/product). Among those, it is worth mentioning collaborative mapping, offline/online methods and ICT tools for social inclusion and community engagement in urban regeneration processes. These fields have been explored and experienced through international research and cooperation projects (i.e. Crowdmapping Mirafiori Sud, MiraMap, Erasmus + My Smart Quartier), teaching activity (i.e. the Master Programme “ICT for Development and Social Good” promoted by the University of Turin and Ong2.0), the participation to International Scientific Committees (i.e. Planet Smart City) and along with professional work.  Grazia Giulia Cocina: Architect and Postdoctoral Researcher at the Department of Architecture and Design of the Politecnico di Torino (Italy). Her research topics concern ICTs for civic engagement, tools for e-participation and Digital Participatory Platforms for the interaction between citizens and the Public Administration. She took part in the development of different projects for social inclusion and community participation at Italian and European level. After a period of collaboration at the Space Syntax Limited studio in London, she deepens topics related to the study of the configurational analysis of complex spaces, through the application of techniques for the study of spatial models and user flows. Her latest research focuses on the possibility of integrating the two tools (configurational and participatory) for a more complete spacereading.
