Prospective participative pour la zone urbaine de Pise (Italie) : l’eau et l’alimentation comme enjeux de développement territorial

Abstract

Nous présentons une démarche de prospective participative – le jeu de territoire – basée sur l’usage des représentations spatiales aux différentes étapes de diagnostic, scénario d’évolution et pistes d’action. Cette démarche a été déployée dans la région urbaine de Pise (Italie) sur les enjeux de gestion de l’eau et de l’alimentation. Au total, 35 acteurs (agriculteurs, conseillers techniques ou décideurs) ont participé aux ateliers participatifs organisés par les chercheurs. L’utilisation et le partage des représentations spatiales ont incité les participants à franchir leurs espaces d’action habituels et à explorer des scénarios prospectifs en déplaçant leur centre d’intérêt individuel vers un point de vue collectif. Le processus d’hybridation des connaissances sous-jacent au jeu de territoire a permis aux chercheurs et aux acteurs locaux de déterminer les objets spatiaux intégrateurs pour le développement durable des territoires ruraux et périurbains.This paper presents a study based on the territory game, a participatory prospective method based on the use of spatial representations in three main steps: the diagnosis statement, the development of scenarios and the implementation of action steps. The method involved local stakeholders in an integrated approach to territorial development in the urban region of Pisa (Italy). In total, 35 actors (farmers, policy-makers and extension agents) participated in the workshops organized by the researchers. The use and the sharing of spatial representations guided the participants to overcome their usual boundaries for action and to draw prospective scenarios by shifting their focus from the individual to a collective viewpoint. The knowledge hybridization process underpinning the territory game allowed both researchers and local stakeholders to identify the most relevant spatial targets to draw shared management goals for the development of rural and urban areas.Se presenta un procedimiento de prospectiva participativa, el juego de territorio que utiliza las representaciones espaciales según las diferentes etapas del diagnóstico, el escenario de evolución y las pistas de acción. Se lo ha desarrollado en la región urbana de Pisa (Italia) para la cuestión de la gestión del agua y de la alimentación. Han concurrido a los talleres participativos organizados por los investigadores, un total de 35 protagonistas (agricultores, consejeros técnicos o decidores). La utilización y el reparto de las representaciones espaciales han estimulado a los participantes, la superación de espacios de acción habituales para explorar escenarios prospectivos, desplazando así sus intereses individuales hacia lo colectivo. El proceso de amalgamar los conocimientos subyacentes del juego de territorio ha permitido el establecimiento de objetos espaciales integradores para un desarrollo sostenible de territorios rurales y periféricos

Justiça ecológica como bússola para ações em favor da agricultura urbana e periurbana

“…Como destacado por Lardon et al (2016), objetos espaciais integradores, tal como a alimentação, constituem eixos em torno dos quais atores se apropriam de uma visão prospectiva do território. O potencial criativo desta apropriação permite ampliar o campo das possibilidades em torno da agricultura urbana e periurbana.…”

Actors, Scales and Spaces Dynamics Linked to Groundwater Resources use for Agriculture Production in Haouaria Plain, Tunisia. A Territory Game Approach

“…According to [18], the "territory game" is an expression game that promotes the construction of a shared viewpoint of the territory, production of knowledge for action is carried out as a part of an iterative process, in which the knowledge of actors and of researchers is shared and appropriated. The territory game is a concertation tool between territory stakeholders, it aims to support territorial development processes [17]. The territory game is based on an analysis of the main organizers of the space expressed as graphic models that serve as the thread for comparing and integrating the knowledge generated throughout the procedure.…”

“…One aspect of this purpose is the role that researchers could play in the smart development approach [13]. Academic debate continues over the conditions under which participatory governance and policy measures can effectively be implemented by giving examples of various sectors and regions [14][15][16][17]. In combination with local knowledge, scientific knowledge can contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of complex and dynamic natural systems and processes [18].…”

Agroecological Transitions: From Theory to Practice in Local Participatory Design

“…Governance was addressed in two different ways by a group of researchers involved in the DATAR's research in 2008-2010, evaluating "rural excellence hubs" (PER, pôles d'excellence rurale) 5 (Lardon et al 2016). The first consisted in analysing the socio-spatial configurations making up territories engaged in PER projects.…”

“…and researchers around different intermediary objects (Vinck 2009), such as the maps produced during the process of knowledge production and the valorisation of experiences. These outputs are analysed from the angle of the concerns that they address (Lardon et al 2016).…”
