ENHANCEMENT OF THE IN-BETWEEN LANDS THE CASE STUDY OF POLLINA

Abstract

The “Innova-Pollina” project aims for territorial valorization through a Design-Driven approach and Action-Research, positioning the designer as a facilitator within the “peripheral” territory of Pollina. The analysis of local community needs, mapping of stakeholders, and collaboration with the local administration were key steps. Issues such as abandonment of houses, underutilization of the manna museum and scenic trails guided the design of new scenarios to stimulate investments and create opportunities, whilst preserving the essence of the “slow territory.” Solutions like sporting trails, wellness projects, widespread hotels, and valorization for south working emerge as promising avenues to rejuvenate the areas, welcoming residents, tourists, and South Workers, and highlighting the local peculiarities, with the designer acting as a process facilitator.
