This brief comments on the link between digitalization and first results in vaccination programs against the Covid-19 pandemic across EU27+UK. In several cases, it has been noted that without digitalization, the response to the pandemic event would have hit harder the population’s welfare. There are several ways to measure diffusion. Many studies used the percentage of the population having access to internet services. Others used the number of hours used in the internet-related activity. In this work, we will employ the number of digital gadgets within a nation averaged by the population. To present the structural impact that the diffusion of Digital gadgets has had on the selected nations, we will present its relation with the Human Development Index and the specialization rate of the workforce.

This includes how urbanisation exerts an influence beyond the city’s limits, often in places far beyond dense population centres, through a global network connecting geographically distant areas. With its sprawling urbanisation patterns and a globalised industrialisation and economy, Northern Italy perfectly fits within this definition. The context of extended urbanisation is also at the core of the theoretical framework provided by a range of studies devoted to the spatialities of infectious disease (Connolly, Keil, and Ali 2020; Connolly, Ali, and Keil 2020). A spatial analysis of excess mortality during the first wave of Covid-19 in Northern Italy is proposed at the scale of Labour Market Areas (LMAs – Sistemi Locali del Lavoro), with specific attention to density. More in detail, some topological density indices relating to relational intensity and territorial permeability are correlated with 2020 COVID-related deaths, that is, excess deaths compared to the previous five years. This analysis allows combining a snapshot of the contemporary situation with an overview of inter-area disparities. This can highlight the chronic weaknesses of different territorial development models and inform resilience strategies at the inter-municipal scale.

Un’analisi descrittiva delinea le principali caratteristiche del Piano ed il contesto in cui esso è inserito, facendo riferimento al Semestre europeo e le relative Raccomandazioni specifiche per l’Italia del 2019 e 2020, al Green Deal europeo e infine alla stessa Agenda 2030. Emerge - da questa - che il PNRR potrebbe impattare maggiormente alcuni specifici Goal dell’Agenda. Attraverso l’applicazione di una metodologia sviluppata e applicata da Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei (FEEM) e Regione Autonoma della Sardegna (RAS) nel contesto della Politica di Coesione, vengono analizzate le interconnessioni tra i singoli target dell’Agenda 2030 e le misure del PNRR, per dare una valutazione preliminare in merito alla sostenibilità del Piano stesso.

Attraverso l’applicazione di una metodologia sviluppata da Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei (FEEM) nel contesto della Politica di Coesione, vengono analizzate le interconnessioni tra i singoli target dell’Agenda 2030 e gli interventi del progetto ReSTART “Resilienza Territoriale Appennino Centrale Ricostruzione Terremoto” per comprendere a fondo quanto le azioni di ricostruzione stiano facilitando il raggiungimento dei target di sostenibilità presenti nell’Agenda internazionale.

By applying a methodology developed by the Eni Enrico Mattei Foundation (FEEM), we analyze the interconnections between the individual targets of the 2030 Agenda and the interventions of the ReSTART project “Resilience Territorial Central Apennines Earthquake Reconstruction” to understand how the reconstruction is contributing to the achievement of sustainability targets set by the 2030 Agenda.
