 nBottom-up approach towards urban green transition: the role of citizens\n
 \nCities are key contributors to climate change being responsible of the g
 reat majority of Green House Gas emissions\, energy consumptions\, and was
 te production at global scale. At the same time\, urban environmental qual
 ity is significantly affected by climate change effects\, such as the incr
 easing occurrences of extreme weather events\, which compromise the life q
 uality of cities inhabitants. Nevertheless\, cities are also economic and 
 innovation hubs and have the potential of leading the necessary green tran
 sition. Cities are the places par excellence where to implement effective 
 mitigation and adaptation strategies giving the chance to achieve the targ
 ets posed by international agreements on climate and to enhance citizens w
 ell-being. The high heterogeneity of the urban environment\, its physical 
 structure and socio-economic patterns\, require the implementation of inte
 rventions at multiple scales capable of addressing site-specific environme
 ntal issues. Fine spatial resolution is needed in the urban environmental 
 analysis and citizens engagement is a key component for implementing an ef
 ficient transition. In this view\, recent advances in sensor technology an
 d data communication capability allow to conceive the active participation
  of citizens in the urban environmental monitoring process\, moving the an
 alysis to a human-centred approach for applying targeted actions. Therefor
 e\, citizens become vectors of data and target of data-processing that cou
 ld be used also for boosting the behavioural change of individuals that is
  required to speed up the process for the transition of cities towards a s
 ustainable future.\n\n\nShort bio:\nIlaria Pigliautile\, Ph.D.\, is a post
 -doc research fellow of Building Physic at the Engineering Department of t
 he University of Perugia (Italy). She is passionate about the existing mut
 ual relationship in between people and the built environment\, at differen
 t scales: from deepening indoor comfort theories and occupants’ behaviou
 r affections\, up to urban morphology and metabolism impact on the environ
 ment and citizens well-being. Graduated cum laude in Building Engineering 
 and Architecture at University of Perugia in 2015. PhD in Energy and Susta
 inable Development in 2020. Her interest on human nature is also depicted 
 by her interest on performing arts and theatre being also directly involve
 d in several laboratories since 2008.\n
