Abstract
The Atelier International du Grand Paris (AIGP) was established following the 2008 international consultation “Le Grand Pari(s) de l’agglomération parisienne” in order to extend the prospective investigations on metropolitan Paris through a permanent, research-oriented structure. As a public-interest group jointly governed by the French State and Île-de-France local authorities, the AIGP functions primarily as a large urban research platform: it commissions and synthesizes long-term studies, produces strategic knowledge, and maintains an arena for interdisciplinary debate on the transformations of Grand Paris. Its scientific work is carried out by a broad community of researchers—architect-urbanists, geographers, economists, landscape designers, engineers, and social scientists—often including university professors and several leading figures of French urbanism (among them former Grand Prix de l’Urbanisme laureates), organized into multidisciplinary teams selected through international calls. The 2008 Scientific Council was renewed in 2012–2013 and expanded into 14–15 interdisciplinary teams, some continuing from 2008, ensuring both continuity and intellectual diversification of the research agenda. To consolidate its research capacity, the AIGP operates in close synergy with major metropolitan knowledge institutions and programmes—most notably POPSU, IAU-ÎdF and APUR—through a shared Programme Committee that helps define and orient AIGP research missions. AIGP II research project spanned from 2013 to 2017, and was articulated in a vast process of dialogue and confrontation of the Scientific Commetee with Institutional and research bodies. The result of the research was presented in two collective books "Habiter le Grand Paris" and "Systèmes Métropolitains" and in multiple conferences and exhibitions. Within this framework, Alessandro delli Ponti served as Member of the AIGP International Scientific Council as Project-responsible coordinator for the international team TVK–GÜLLER GÜLLER–ACADIE. The research missions carried by Alessandro delli Ponti were developed under the AIGP commissions “Habiter le Grand Paris” and “Métropolitan Systems.” He coordinated prospective investigations and scenario-building on metropolitan inhabitation under conditions of socio-ecological and spatial transition, with a specific focus on “intermediate territories” and on the multi-scalar, morphological, and programmatic shifts induced by the Grand Paris Express and related metropolitan dynamics. These missions resulted in the following written outputs: . Transitions, habiter les intermédiaires (AIGP - TVK_GÜLLER_ACADIE Research Report, 2014). . Système Ouvert (AIGP - TVK_GÜLLER_ACADIE Research Report 2015). . La robustesse d’une ville globale européenne (AIGP - TVK_GÜLLER_ACADIE Research Report 2016). . Nouvelle Economie (AIGP - TVK_GÜLLER_ACADIE Research Report 2016). As member of the ISC of AIGP. he contributed to the organization and scientific orientation of a broad cultural and public programme—exhibitions, conferences, seminars, and debates—hosted in major French cultural venues, notably the Palais de Tokyo, Grand Palais, Musée de l’Homme, and Le Centquatre (104), among others.I documenti in SFERA sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
