"“Back to the future” challenges the traditional urban dichotomies between human and non-human, rural and urban, productive areas and living environment. It explores the possibility of a new urban paradigm based on the symbiosis between humans and non-humans, between production and nature, to achieve the resiliency that a territory needs to face the challenges of climate change and the continuous economic-productive and health crises that we are now used to have."
