DIST’s research promotion policy is implemented through internal competitive calls for proposals aimed at co-funding proposals submitted by lecturers or groups of lecturers.
As part of the Departmental Strategic Plan 2025–30 and its Incentive Scheme ‘Infrastructuring the Urban’, three two-year projects were selected – via a call for proposals open to the departmental community – which are representative of the department’s research, multidisciplinary in nature, geared towards outcomes that can be shared with society as a whole, and focused, first and foremost, on the local area served by the Turin universities.
The selected projects, which commenced on 1 June 2026, are: INCONTRA, Infra_Nex JUST-IN Space.
