How to shape the China’s Cities of Tomorrow? The Urbanization process in China

The Urbanization process in China is an ongoing process that has completely changed the configuration of the country and has to face with large increase of domestic immigration flow, urban sprawl, unbalanced integration between urban/rural development and pollution. In order to solve all these problems, China is developing sustainable urbanization program focusing on Low Carbon and Eco-City development, urban/rural integration, green transportation and new energies. These new challenges, could be the way to redesign the “Chinese’s Cities of Tomorrow”.

Come modellare “ le città cinesi del domani”? Il processo di Urbanizzazione in Cina

Il processo di urbanizzazione in Cina è un processo continuo che ha completamente modificato la configurazione del paese, deve affrontare il consistente  flusso interno di immigrazione, la diffusione urbana, la sbilanciata integrazione tra sviluppo urbano/rurale e l’inquinamento.
Per risolvere tutti questi problemi, la Cina sta sviluppando un programma di urbanizzazione sostenibile, focalizzato  sullo sviluppo Low Carbon e Eco-City, l’integrazione urbana/rurale, il trasporto sostenibile e le nuove energie. Queste nuove sfide, potrebbero essere il modo per ridisegnare le “Città cinesi del domani”.

Precedentement Rossato ha lavorato in Kazakhstan, Inghilterra, Italia e  insegnato allo IUAV, ENU (Astana), Cornell University, METU e CAG (Pechino).
