Territorial Intelligence. When citizenships become project in the planning

Concurrently, the diminished relationship of subsidiarity in multilevel governance between the territorial and urban levels has engendered a blackout between political and operational decision-making systems. This disconnect has been observed as a result of decision maker's refusal to take responsibility through planning, leaving it to be transferred to citizens. The ambiguity of role in terms of public commitment is becoming evident through recent European and Italian urban experiences in regeneration, large infrastructure works, and improvement, and structural interventions in public spaces and goods. These have emphasised European key concepts such as cohesion, equity, intelligence, inclusion, and tools such as CLLD and LAP, which have taken root even in the absence of common regulations. The challenges associated with these experiences are analysed in Italy and Europe to overcome ideological boundaries often connected with the action of CoPs by a primarily geographical interpretation. New participatory solutions are therefore required to improve quality of life, demographic and social balance, and adequate employment. The CoPs presence in the plan’s elaboration is re-orienting the role of citizens, professionals, stakeholders, and politicians involved in "community-based planning," as a methodology that prioritises a "people-centred approach".
