“…Anche oggi i percorsi che innervano i versanti possono essere valorizzati come spazi fruitivi pubblici e collettivi dal carattere quotidiano, così come elementi connettivi alla scala vasta per ricucire molteplici contesti. Il caso dell'area metropolitana di Grenoble, ad esempio, propone un approccio strategico volto ad integrare nella quotidianità degli abitanti della conurbazione l'uso e la fruizione dei paesaggi di versante potenziando e valorizzando il sistema di connessioni trasversali all'andamento dell'area urbana di valle (Ambrosino, Buyck, 2018). La ricucitura tra i due contesti sostiene la stretta interrelazione tra spazi pubblici e collettivi di fondovalle e spazi aperti di versante, sottolineando il valore collettivo di questi ultimi.…”

The paper deals with the critical issues concerning the public spaces and linear settlements located in the Alpine valley floors. The development of modern urbanisation caused spatial and relational impacts increasing the demand for the right to the city and nature expressed by the inhabitants of the Alpine suburbs. Therefore, the paper identifies possible project areas for establishing a new system of public and collective spaces, as already tested through the mentioned case studies concerning the different contexts. These selected spaces are widespread in heterogeneous mountain landscapes and constitute design opportunities at different elevations to restore territorial quality and identity and reconnect the interrupted or incomplete relationships. They could compose a new public, collective, and open spaces system to be developed as a real landscape regeneration project made of places, relationships, and identities.

“…In Grenoble, we tried to determine routes (Fig. 1) that are complementary to each other and that, on the whole, traverse areas of great landscape and spatial diversity, thus reflecting the variety of metropolitan situations (Ambrosino & Buyck, 2018), including the three valleys, the three massifs and the plain. In Caen, we reasoned in the same way and determined complementary routes between valleys and plains; between urban, suburban and industrial areas; between areas well connected by public transit and areas entirely devoted to the automobile.…”

Our contribution aims at pointing out how the food issue challenges metropolitan areas while at the same time identifying potential for sustainable urban planning. To that end, we investigate to what extent taking into account agricultural and food-related issues enables to rethink urban planning which is usually qualified as sustainable. Our analysis will be based upon the two French urban regions of Grenoble and Caen where participatory research was conducted through collective and prospective walks. These urban explorations, which provide insights on metropolitan spaces and the interrelations that underlie them, underly the disconnections of contemporary urban planning with the inhabitants, their vital needs and, more generally, the soil, while highlight working paths for a more nourishing, meaningful and rooted urban planning. By considering urban planning through the scope of agri-food stakes, we contribute then to the renewal of urban concepts and thus highlight three workshops aiming at further developing sustainable urban planning issues and tools.

“…Este hecho propone a los planificadores y los responsables políticos nuevos retos sobre el tema de sostenibilidad. Si bien, por un lado, la integración posmoderna de las montañas en la vida urbana ya es una característica de muchas regiones urbanas en zonas montañosas europeas, por ejemplo, Grenoble (Francia) o Innsbruck (Austria) (Ambrosino y Buyck, 2018;, por otro lado, este desarrollo es más bien nuevo y poco conocido para las zonas montañosas del resto del mundo. Las montañas tropicales del oeste de Sudamérica en general (Borsdorf y Stadel, 2015), y en particular los Andes peruanos, son un ejemplo perfecto para comprender mejor el…”

Las ciudades de montaña especializadas en turismo intentan, cada vez más, destacar la importancia de su patrimonio cultural y natural. Esto para poder subsistir en la competencia por la atención mundial. En este contexto, la urbanización posmoderna de las montañas desempeña un papel crucial: es así que, al ser impulsada por procesos turísticos, esta cambia la configuración socioespacial y económica de las ciudades de montaña y su hinterland. Este último se convierte entonces en un «paisaje operacional» estructurado verticalmente que a la vez altera profundamente las interacciones entre la ciudad y la montaña. Con el fin de promover el desarrollo sostenible en las zonas montañosas urbanizadas, es fundamental comprender el arraigo de estos asentamientos tanto en (1) naturaleza y cultura como en (2) espacio y tiempo. La ciudad andina de Huaraz es un buen ejemplo, ya que es un centro urbano intermedio en las tierras altas de Perú. Además, se caracteriza por su ubicación estratégica en el Callejón de Huaylas (valle del río Santa) con influencia de las culturas española y quechua, aparte de ser dominado por los glaciares de la Cordillera Blanca. Por medio de la combinación (1) de un marco teórico que considera la urbanización planetaria, el turismo y la complementariedad vertical y (2) de una técnica de estudio de casos inspirada en los perfiles ambientales urbanos, trazamos la evolución de la relación ciudad-montaña en Huaraz. A la vez, nos concentramos en la forma y modo, en que las dimensiones inmateriales y materiales de las montañas circundantes influyen en el desarrollo urbano. Concluimos exhortando a superar tres dicotomías persistentes que siguen obstaculizando el desarrollo sostenible.
