The development policy of intermediate metropolises will be unravelled through a narrative pointing to the main directions to reach a sustainable future – fair governance, social equity, economic integration and environmental responsibility; each considered through the interactions that make up the metropolis: identity and image representation, urban projects, cooperation and alliances and, finally, the ecology of mobility.
A half-day technical visit, 2 days of plenary sessions and one-day workshops halfway will provide all participants the opportunity to reflect on today's challenges for intermediate metropolitan territories.
