The city-mountain interchange in the Metropolitan City of Turin (Italy)

The goal of this contribution is to present the results of “Eco-welfare and Inter-municipal Governance: Soil as an Infrastructure for Regenerating Territories”, a multidisciplinary research project co-funded by DIST Department of the Polytechnic University of Turin (Italy) in cooperation with a range of institutional and research organizations. The research aims at increasing the understanding on the integration of Ecosystem Services’ (ES) knowledge and methodologies within urban and territorial planning processes. One of the trajectories of the research is the investigation of the governance and planning approaches that convey stronger city-mountain interactions in terms of relations and flows of ES.
