557. Rural placemaking - Elena Giunta , Sven Kohlschmidt and Emilia Pardi
We meet Emilia Pardi (PUSH), Sven Kohlschmidt (urbanista / Simeri Laboratorio Urbano), and Elena Giunta (SHIFT) to explore how placemaking can strengthen small towns and interconnected settlements, the “distributed city” model typical of the Reggio Emilia region.
This conversation dives into the opportunities and challenges of rural placemaking, highlighting communities facing demographic decline, infrastructure gaps, and urban decay. Together, the guests discuss real project cases and share ideas for forming the first Rural Placemaking Network, a step toward a future consortium and new funding opportunities for revitalizing rural territories.
