L’abitare è un’esperienza profondamente intrecciata con la comunità, la cultura e aspetti sociali ed economici: un complesso di interrelazioni tra individuo e l’ambiente. Attraverso l’analisi del rating sociale del Fondo Housing Toscano, questo libro invita a riflettere sull’evoluzione dell’abitare nel contesto urbano italiano, mettendo in luce sfide e opportunità nei progetti che mirano ad armonizzare le esigenze abitative individuali con gli imperativi di una sostenibilità collettiva. Attraverso esempi concreti, i contributi dimostrano come collaborazioni e politiche integrate possano dare vita a comunità urbane più resilienti e inclusive, facendo sempre più leva sul modello di “neo-mutualismo”. Ne sono la prova i sei progetti di Urban Housing descritti nel libro, promossi dal Fondo Housing Toscano. Dal welfare culturale alla cruciale questione della cultura energetica, passando per il concetto di polifunzionalità residenziale e la valorizzazione del terzo settore, il libro illustra un nuovo modello di abitare urbano.
