During the most recent Meeting editions, the topic of urban and local development has been addressed several times, with a particular focus on urban regeneration and inclusive cities. Undoubtedly, these themes have become more meaningful after a two-year pandemic that has deeply affected our quality of life. For example, smart working has not only radically changed the way we work, but has also highlighted new housing needs, especially for families. As a consequence, we need to understand what challenges our cities will have to face in the coming years and how the growing demand for good living conditions, resulting from the dramatic pandemic experience, can be fulfilled by new ways of designing working and living spaces.
