Description: ToNite starts from the assumption that during the night/evening time the urban “social protection” function in town is mainly accomplished by public security. The project’s main goal is to better understand urban social challenges and to address urban insecurity phenomena through collaborative policies based on social empowerment, active participation of residents and stakeholders and social and technological innovation. The city’s night policies will become a key element to improve the livability and accessibility of public spaces and the perceived security through new urban furniture and the activation of new night services, entrepreneurial ideas and models along the Dora River waterfront.
