Abstract

GEODESIGN represents an effective framework promoting collaborative planning and decision-making as an incremental process based on robust methodological guidance. In this paper, GEODESIGN has been adopted as supporting tool for preliminary activities oriented to the integrate risks mitigation and sustainable development in a wider research project MITIGO. Within this project, have been selected as case study area four Municipalities from inland areas of Basilicata Region, characterized by several risks (i.e. depopulation, hydro-geological risks, abandonment of traditional land uses…). A knowledge framework process of future scenario building was produced through GEODESIGN Workshop, based on technical information concerning environmental and anthropic risks and combined with more traditional context analysis.

A preliminary experiment of the workshop involving young engineers (in a master degree studio at the University of Basilicata) has been simulated: an useful test to refine details of the analytical framework and to calibrate workshop agenda for real case development avoiding inefficiencies. The results highlithed a comprehensive approach in terms of participation capacity of decision makers without any background in planning disciplines and unveiled the weaknesses of traditional approach mainly based on “building agreements” without any measurements of spatial evidences or scenarios comparisons.
