Manuela Ronci, landscape architect, holds a doctorate in Urban and Regional Development from Politecnico di Torino (PoliTo) and Università degli Studi di Torino (UniTo).
Her doctoral thesis focused on the investigation of the role of landscape architecture and planning in promoting urban biodiversity, with the final ambition of highlighting design strategies that can fill in the gap between plan predictions and design practice.
