Each mapped case study is here represented through key images: more than 100 organisations committed to sustainability. They were interviewed by the young mappers, under the supervision of Cittadellarte, and expressed their opinions on the sustainable choices they have made or would like to make in the future, with reference to the 17 Sustainability Goals of the UN 2030 Agenda. Each of them filled in a short self-assessment form based on the following criteria:
- Social and environmental impact (e.g. emissions, waste, energy, land use);
- Innovativeness and originality;
- Replicability and exportability in other territories;
- Ability to generate sustainable economy and employment;
- Relationship with the territory and communities, and ability to network.
