New CENTRINNO Cartography Resources
Expanding the CENTRINNO platform
The research project CENTRINNO (New CENTRalities in INdustrial areas as engines for innovation and urban transformation) is entering its 4th and final year of the project.
The Cartography follows the 9 pilot cities across Europe on their mapping and exploration journeys toward circularity as a living tool. The project’s output is one of the central infrastructures of CENTRINNO as an open-source resource for other cities to explore.
During the past 3 years, the project’s pilots have worked intensively to map the resources, people, knowledge, skills, and infrastructure around post-industrial sites and beyond.
With such rich knowledge, how can we weave together all of these resources into a circular, inclusive, and locally productive ecosystem that regenerates communities and nature? And above all, can Fab City Hubs act as facilitators of this transition?
In the final year of #CENTRINNOeu, Cartography explores these ideas and shares its findings to these questions via new pilots’ mapping stories.
