A NEW URBAN PLANNING “SLOW”: CHANGSHAN, A NEW CHALLENGE FOR INTERNATIONAL CITTASLOW

Yaxi

On the occasion of our last meeting with the Cittaslow Chinese National Coordinating Gaochn / Yaxi in Nanjing Province, President Stefano Pisani met the Mayor and Delegates of candidates Changshan town for an important and innovative project: the new idea is to create from zero a new Cittaslow.

To plan and to build from the beginning to "news Cittaslow town" is a great challenge that will test the technical and scientific facilities as well as Cittaslow International policies.

The concept is: we can build a new vision of the city relying on the identity of places, sharing with the local residents in five villages, environmental sustainability, social responsibility shared.

A new era which will bring further efficiency to the Cittaslow policies that effectively contribute to the "good life" of millions of slow citizens around the world.
