The theme of educational poverty is becoming increasingly central to the national and international
scientific and pedagogical debate, but also to the public and political one. The concept is
multidimensional and presents the characteristics of scale necessary to frame the complexity of
social and educational situations related to inequalities and issues of equity, social justice and access to rights not relegated to the economic sphere alone. The contribution aims to initiate a

Many migrants, especially those with more vulnerable or precarious positions and refugees, face multiple stressors and traumatic experiences which may have long-term adversely implications for their well-being and physical and mental health. Despite these major stressors, many migrants show resilience and do not develop disorders (Cardoso & Thompson, 2010; Greeff & Holtzkamp, 2007; Pieloch, McCullough, & Marks, 2016; Rashid & Gregory, 2014). Resilience has been defined in different ways.

The general aim is to advance the understanding of the role of both place attachment intensity and place attachment styles for adaptive coping strategies with flood risk. Place attachment styles are operationalized as secure, preoccupied, and fearful-avoidant. Risk coping strategies are conceptualized as emotional (i.e., distress), and behavioral coping strategies (i.e., positive, negative, and avoidant). Two main cross-sectional studies were conducted in both high and low-risk areas: one study in Italy (N = 100) and one study in Romania (N = 391).

A growing number of studies suggest that flow experience is associated with life satisfaction,
eudaimonic well-being, and the perceived strength of one’s social and place identity. However, little
research has placed emphasis on flow and its relations with negative experiences such as anxiety.
The current study investigated the relations between flow and anxiety by considering the roles of
self-esteem and academic self-ecacy. The study sample included 590 Chinese university students,

The Covid-19 outbreak and the subsequent lockdown have profoundly impacted families’ daily life, challenging their psychological resilience. Our study aimed to investigate the immediate psychological consequences of the pandemic on Italian parents and children focusing on internalizing and post-traumatic symptoms. We also wanted to explore the impact of possible risk and resilience factors, e.g., lifestyle and behaviors, emotional and cognitive beliefs, on parents and children’s reaction to the emergency distress.

L’approvazione del nuovo Piano di Governo del Territorio (PGT) di Milano modifica l’approccio alla pianificazione generale, dopo oltre trent’anni di vigenza del vecchio strumento urbanistico, apportando sostanziali innovazioni che ridefiniscono, gli obiettivi, le strategie e le politiche per lo sviluppo, economico e sociale del comune, attuando e valorizzano le disposizioni normative della legge regionale 12/2005.

L’indiscriminato sfruttamento delle risorse ambientali, l’elevato consumo di suolo, l’aumento della popolazione urbana, gli effetti del global warming, la mancanza di spazi e servizi pubblici, di trasporti collettivi e di adeguate politiche sociali, insieme alle problematiche legate all’emergenza socio-sanitaria in atto, richiamano, l’esigenza di implementare una strategia unitaria, integrata e interscalare che assuma come matrice di riferimento la costruzione della città pubblica finalizzata alla rigenerazione urbana.

Tra le regioni del Sud la Calabria costituisce una realtà urbano-territoriale complessa, ricca e stratificata eternamente sospesa tra la ricerca di un (ri)equilibrio delle proprie componenti ambientali, economiche, sociali, culturali, infrastrutturali, insediative e paesaggistiche, e i continui insuccessi e le sconfitte che ne hanno segnato la storia ostacolandone la crescita e lo sviluppo. Una regione fragile, frammentata e interrotta deve oggi confrontarsi con i nuovi bisogni, i nuovi attori, le nuove forme di pianificazione, coniugando sviluppo, innovazione e qualità ambientale.

This paper deals with the interactions between biophysical and microclimatic factors
on the one hand with, on the other, the urban morphology of intermediate urban open spaces,
the relationship between environmental and bioclimatic thermal comfort, and the implementation of
innovative materials and the use of greenery, aimed at the users’ well-being. In particular, the thermal
comfort of the open spaces of the consolidated fabrics of the city of Rome is studied, by carrying

In urban areas, the elements of the natural environment providing multi-functional ecosystem services are referred to as green infrastructure, into the perspective of leisure, education, health and well-being, reconnection to biodiversity, cultural and heritage landscapes, resilience-building. Numerous tools have been developed to explore multiple benefits of green infrastructure, adapting methodologies and designing new frameworks, especially in the emerging research area of the landscape economy.
