Abstract

Reagente is a catalyst for avant-garde citizens, it is a project to experiment design opportunities between policy and citizenship, it is a process to trigger chain reactions involving different subjects in turn capable of activating. Being active citizens, urban makers, social innovators, as well as a challenge can be a profession: the Reagents are there and they are multiplying. They believe in a way of living the city as protagonists, bespoke. They create pleasant, open, inclusive places, take care of them, they produce values. They aspire to real change, invest in the quality of life. They go beyond the bottom-up/top-down dynamics, creating horizontal connections between different worlds. The tools that design makes available in this process are open to educational experiments and job opportunities. Reagente is an initiative aimed to investigate the possibility of involving people in co-design processes and to create a blueprint for a quality label. It is conceived as a system that recognizes values to bottom-up actions giving new meanings to vacant spaces. Reagente is a strategy to simplify policies, to embed reactivation in our cities and to enhance social innovation. Reagente aims to propose a tool conceived as a brand to test an inclusive and participatory process to define guidelines and labeling requirements for activists in order to communicate their actions and to spread shared values.
