Abstract: The socio-economic landscape differences between the North-South of Italy are well-known and visible in both statistical forms and lifestyles of Italians and visitors. Italy remained an agricultural-based economy for centuries. But after the industrial revolution, the North becomes more industrialized while the Southern regions are left behind. According to the EUROSTAT 2019 unemployment rate, by comparing Lombardy and Campania regions, the gap is clear, Lombardy rate (3.4 – 6.6%) while in Campania (13.4%). According to the previous data, we developed a research to identify the Southern regions, to propose a project which can help to increase the South of Italy economy. Since Campania region is the third populated region in Italy and the first in southern Italy, with potential urban areas and a fertile productive landscape. Naples is our choice as a focus city for the proposed project. The key problems that are overlooking Naples presently are the rapid rate of unemployed and pollution. The goal of the project is to develop a sustainable approach, by using 'Urban and Landscape Planning' as a tool. The actions which have been initiated were to promote a substantial connection between rural and urban part of Naples. This network aim is to work together with proposal 'Organic Agriculture' fields on rural areas and ' Food Hub Market' on Urban Areas - Ports, for better promotion of local food in the city with the possibility of exporting abroad. We describe our project as a Prototype (which can be applied in other cities in Southern Italy, with respect to the agriculture and urban character). As a potential result of our proposal, we are expecting to enhance Naples and Southern Italy's economy without affecting the existing economic activities. As well as, lowering the crime rate by providing more jobs and education opportunities in organic agriculture. The organic approach to agriculture and the increase of green areas within the urban zone will make Naples a sustainable city. This approach can be adopted in many Italian cities, mainly in the southern regions to overcome economic problems.
Astratto: Le differenze di paesaggio socioeconomico tra il Nord-Sud Italia sono ben note e visibili sia nelle forme statistiche che negli stili di vita degli italiani e dei visitatori. L'Italia è rimasta un'economia basata sull'agricoltura per secoli. Ma dopo la rivoluzione industriale, il Nord diventa più industrializzato mentre le regioni meridionali sono lasciate indietro. Secondo il tasso di disoccupazione EUROSTAT 2019, confrontando Lombardia e Campania, il divario è netto, tasso Lombardia (3,4 - 6,6%) mentre in Campania (13,4%). Secondo i dati precedenti, abbiamo sviluppato una ricerca per identificare le regioni del Sud, per proporre un progetto che possa aiutare a far crescere l'economia del Sud Italia. Poiché la Campania è la terza regione popolata d'Italia e la prima del sud Italia, con potenziali aree urbane e un fertile paesaggio produttivo. Napoli è la nostra scelta come città fulcro del progetto proposto. I problemi chiave che attualmente si trovano ad affrontare Napoli sono il rapido tasso di disoccupati e l'inquinamento. L'obiettivo del progetto è sviluppare un approccio sostenibile, utilizzando come strumento la "Pianificazione urbana e paesaggistica". Le azioni avviate miravano a promuovere un legame sostanziale tra la parte rurale e quella urbana di Napoli. L'obiettivo di questa rete è quello di collaborare con la proposta "Agricoltura biologica" sui campi nelle aree rurali e "Mercato Alimentare" sulle aree urbane - Porti, per una migliore promozione del cibo locale in città con la possibilità di esportare all'estero. Descriviamo il nostro progetto come un Prototipo (che può essere applicato in altre città del Sud Italia, rispetto al carattere agricolo e urbano). Come potenziale risultato della nostra proposta, ci aspettiamo di migliorare l'economia di Napoli e del Sud Italia senza intaccare le attività economiche esistenti. Inoltre, abbassando il tasso di criminalità fornendo più posti di lavoro e opportunità d'istruzione nell'agricoltura biologica. L'approccio biologico all'agricoltura e l'aumento delle aree verdi all'interno della zona urbana renderanno Napoli una città sostenibile. Questo approccio può essere adottato in molte città italiane, principalmente nelle regioni meridionali per superare i problemi economici.
