237-247 p.
- Negli ultimi anni è aumentato l'interesse nei confronti degli spazi verdi con attività agricole in ambiente urbano che sono diventati espressione di un'agricoltura urbana che rappresenta una modalità di valorizzazione agricola di tali spazi a verde cittadini, in grado di offrire risposte a rinnovate esigenze di tipo alimentare, ambientale e socio-culturale. In tale contesto si inserisce la proposta del Comune di Catania di creazione di un orto urbano tra i più vasti d'Europa, in un'area marginale di un quartiere ad elevato degrado socio-economico della città. Il lavoro, partendo dall'analisi dell'agricoltura urbana a livello europeo, si propone, attraverso un'analisi SWOT partecipata, di mettere in evidenzia i punti di forza e di debolezza, le opportunità e le minacce, di questa "nuova forma di verde urbano", quale valido strumento per lo sviluppo integrato del territorio che ricomprende la sfera socio-economico, ambientale.
