%X The following report looks at a selection of research and consultancy activities carried out by members of the  Governance, Design and Valorisation for the Built Environment  Research Group from the BEST Department at the Politecnico di Milano on behalf of Novara City Council. This work was undertaken with the objective of framing a systematic and multi-scalar design to be used in the redevelopment and upgrading of social housing through an approach which emphasised reconstruction of urban relationships and enhancement of the landscape and environment of noteworthy segments of the city. The aforementioned activities were then concentrated within  Neighbourhood Contract III  and  URBACT Active Travel Network ATN  programmes.
