On June 26 2025, Innichen–San Candido hosted the territorial workshop “Grenzlandschaften zwischen Resilienz und Kooperation. Zukunft gemeinsam gestalten / Paesaggi di confine tra resilienza e cooperazione. Dare forma al futuro insieme / Border landscapes between resilience and cooperation. Shaping the future together,” an event organized by the Faculty of Design and Art of the Free University of Bozen/Bolzano as part of the PRIN project “Italian Borderscapes After 2020.”
This workshop represents a continuation of the fieldwork initiated in May 2024. During that initial phase, research was conducted in the territories spanning from the Puster Valley across Italy and Austria, aiming to comprehensively understand the thematic challenges and diverse strategies adopted by cross-border communities in response to recent polycrisis events.
In the workshop, our team presented the initial results of the research project, focusing on crisis experiences, moments of resilience and the participants’ expressed ideas for the future, hopes and concerns. The aim is to reflect together on these results and to engage in an open and constructive dialogue to develop visions for the future. The workshop is intended as a space for exchange where local communities’ views and ideas are expressly welcome.
