Background

The Rome Neighborhood Workshop focuses on learning about Rome as an urban system through the analysis of a set of neighborhoods located outside central Rome, surveying in the process issues that affect the well-being of their residents. Students explore public space, transportation, urban design, housing, infrastructure, immigrant integration, demographics, historic preservation, service provision, and economic development using a rich variety of quantitative and qualitative methods.

Workshop Reports Archive

At the end of the semester, the reports are shared with the neighborhood residents and stakeholders. This is the most complete set of studies of its type written in English, all of which are made available to the interested public through Cornell University Library's digital service, eCommons.

These neighborhood studies could not have been completed without the support of the Cornell in Rome faculty. A special thanks to Greg Smith, Cora Fontana, Marco Gissara, Fabrizio Felice, Carlotta Fioretti, Viviana Andriola, and Serena Muccitelli.

Support inquiries related to the archive should be sent to crpinfo@cornell.edu.
