Abstract

Port heritage forms one of the strongest as well as hidden connections among the shores of Adriatic sea, and it has recently undergone a disruptive process of evolution, which has on one hand often separated cities from their ancient ports, and on the other has caused misuse or dismission of spaces, which nowadays urge for regeneration.
Such conditions jeopardize secular identities & constitute not only a factor of unattractiveness for tourism, but also a background for a potential increase of deviant phenomena weakening security for all citizens. During the project, 3 pilots will be implemented, consisting in the activation of Temporary Uses (=at least 36 months) in urban ports of the Adriatic Sea, intended as trigger actions for wider-scale heritage valorization and regeneration processes; in particular, TEST pilots are aimed at reconnecting the cities to their ports, at creating a new sense of living the places, and at supporting entrepreneurship in the fields of creativity, culture and tourism.
An ad-hoc ICT environment will be developed, aimed at supporting the TEST community, at offering structured and evocative virtual touristic itineraries.
