Remixing Cities is a GAI project which is implemented in collaboration with the member cities of the network and which provides for different partnerships with Bodies, Institutions, Associations and other national public and private entities.

Three days of meetings, four stages of discussion on the theme of the relationship between urban regeneration processes and youth artistic and cultural creativity. The conference “Young Creative ReGenerations. Remixing Cities III "took place as part of the" diffuse energy "program, a project of the Emilia-Romagna Region. The conference also represented a moment of final reflection on the "Young Creative ReGenerations" call - published by ANCI in 2016 - which allowed the financing of 16 national urban regeneration projects through the languages and practice of young creativity. Finally, the event was configured as the third edition of Remixing Cities, a periodic moment of reflection on outcomes, problems, strategies, planning and perspectives for the reuse and revitalization of territories.
The conference took place on 10, 11 and 12 October 2018, in Reggio Emilia (the first day), in Modena (the second day) and in Ferrara and Bologna (the third day). The conference was organized by ANCI, the Emilia-Romagna Region, the Emilia-Romagna Young Artists Association (GA / ER), the Association for the Young Italian Artists Circuit (GAI), and by the cities of Reggio Emilia, Modena, Ferrara and Bologna.
The conference was organized along two lines. Firstly, the illustration of the sixteen projects financed in 2016 through the public notice of ANCI "Young Creative ReGenerations" - projects that came to an end in October 2018 - with the addition of projects from other three cities in Emilia -Romagna (Parma, Piacenza and Ravenna). Furthermore, the conference aimed to take stock of some crucial points relating to the current paths of urban regeneration through youth creativity: the territorial context of the projects; their managerial and economic sustainability; the theme of the relationship between urban regeneration and legislation and regulations. The conference saw the contribution of fifteen speakers on the above topics, various institutional greetings, and the participation of about 60 administrators, partners and young beneficiaries of the cities that received funding from ANCI in 2016 for their projects.
