“…Nevertheless, European cities represent the stage for many other similar experiences, which are either informally triggered by groups of citizens or activated by funded European or municipal projects (e.g. the Living Street 13 and the Future Street 14 in Belgium (Ganugi 2018) or the Play Street 15 in UK. The study, therefore, may be useful to understand better those cases too or to investigate the enabling conditions for the development of reflexive interfaces in different contexts.…”

Social cohesion is often regarded as a remedy for many societal problems, among which the increasing isolation and the crisis of public space in urban contexts. Focusing on the Social Street phenomenon as an alternative urbanity, this paper reflects on social cohesion at the neighbourhood scale, by analysing its cultural and political perspectives and taking into consideration the role of individuals, communities and institutions in fostering it. Participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and focus groups are applied to two cases of Social Street. Besides highlighting the enabling conditions for social cohesion, the results show the intertwining between the individual, community and institutional levels. These links are defined as reflexive interfaces, which are organized moments and places where different actors can meet, dialogue and negotiate, accepting the other participants’ interests, values and aims.

“…In the strict sense of the term, co-production in the public sector refers to the interactive process through which the providers and users of public services apply their diff erent resources and capabilities in its production and delivery. Co-production concerns the growing organised involvement of citizens in the production of their own welfare services (Brandsen and Pestoff 2006), contributing to personalise services (Prandini and Orlandini 2015) and to socially innovate governance arrangements and citizenship status (Ganugi 2018). Regarding co-creation, the involvement of end-users in the planning process as well as in service delivery is what distinguishes co-creation from co-production.…”

The paper illustrates an empirical research project concerning the co-creation process in Reggio Emilia’s public services and their efforts to reduce childhood obesity. The research is based on a participative evaluation research methodology. The project has been implemented within the framework of the CoSIE project, funded by the Horizon 2020 Research Program — Innovation Action. It has been led by the Local Health Unit (LHU) of Reggio Emilia, a mid-size town in north-eastern Italy, and Cup2000/Lepida, a public/private corporation delivering ICT for health service in the Emilia-Romagna Region. The empirical research has been conducted by the University of Bologna, using a mixed method multi-dimensional strategy and combining the Action-Research tradition with the approach of the Theory of Change. The theoretical framework reflects on the co-creation process, distinguishing between its different phases. In particular, it defines the co-production and the co-design phase, operationalising them with the concepts of System Integration and Social Integration. This linkage allows the analysis of the involvement of institutional stakeholders and final users in the co-creation process. Many factors including the actors’ identity, the participation modalities and the impact of each stakeholder on the service, contribute to the model of co-creation in “the shadow of institutions”, characterised by a low level of Social Integration and a high level of System Integration.

“…Ostrom, 1990). Many authors such as Linebaugh (2009), Helfrich (2012), Meretz (2014), Euler (2018), and others see the Commons as a continuous process requiring participation; scholars have described the production and reproduction of Commons (Harvey, 2012;Iaione, 2012;Kip, 2015;Stavrides, 2016;Ganugi, 2018) and the governance arrangements that the actors set up for its management (i.e. Commoning institutions; Harvey, 2013;Dellenbaugh et al, 2015;Stavrides, 2016).…”

This paper explores the transformative potential of Commoning for establishing an urban governance arrangement of an inter-municipal slow path connection located on a former railway embankment—the “Berm” in Mortsel, in the Province of Antwerp, Belgium. To do so, this paper makes use of French pragmatist sociology, namely the “Théorie des Cités (TdC)”, and proposes what we term a “TdC plus” (TdC+), which enhances the TdC with insights from personal psychology, interpersonal interactions and socio-institutional dynamics; the TdC+ also incorporates features of the Landed Commons (Grand Principles of the Landed Commons) into the TdC's approach of common good and operationalises it from an Action research perspective. The paper focuses on the transformative potential of “Gebermte 2019”, an arts-based local initiative aiming to support the establishment of a slow path on the Berm. It illustrates how small scale actions, such as citizens' cultural activities (considered as embedded in processes involving multiple actors over an extended period of time), can be instrumental in empowering civil society groups and help overcome conflict and foster collaboration. It explores the role of supralocal urban governance arrangements in making local initiatives more effective.
