This article analyzes the entanglement of social impacts of bottom-up urban branding processes on local hyperdiverse communities, through an ethnography of a neighborhood of Milan recently named by a group of residents as "NoLo." Indeed, existing literature has broadly investigated urban rebranding as a tool used by policy makers to foster social change and economic capital, imposing top-down transformations. Nevertheless, a gap in the bottom-up place rebranding processes exists. We inspect it through the aforementioned case study and by combining place branding literature, the loss of place identity and theories on empowerment. Empirically, we analyze the socioeconomic processes and the actors that enabled the rebranding, discussing the positive externalities and the criticalities in terms of marginalization of weaker social groups and cultural hegemony. As for the theory, we contribute to the literature arguing that a bottom-up process is not enough to avoid a loss of place identity, as it can lead to selective empowerment.

This deliverable aims to describe inDICEs' targeted methodologies of research and analysis, briefly describing the Methodological Toolbox as the set of targeted methodologies defined through an in-depth review of the current state of the art approaches, both in relation to the research questions and to the kind of available and acquired data and their structure. These are the main components of the Methodological Toolbox: inDICEs Theoretical Framework, Targeted strategies of data gathering and data analysis, Available datasets, Set of useful indicators. This set of methodologies is aimed at supplying inDICEs with new data in order to develop reports on CHI digitization status, to support the Self-assessment tool development, to populate the Observatory Platform and to offer insight in the understanding of the users' behaviour (in their use of different personas), as well as in the understanding of the social and economic impact of digitized culture as a basis for the design of evidence-based policies in the future context of the Digital Single Market (DSM). ; The research leading to these results has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 Programme (H2020-DT-GOVERNANCE-13-2019) under grant agreement n° 870792.

This Deliverable aims to briefly describe the data collection processes, the datasets gathered and the preliminary data analysis on users' behavioural changes that were carried out by the WP1 working group. The inDICEs data collection processed and/or stored within the first 12 months of the project consists of: a) data analyzed as part of the inDICEs participatory platform, where results are made available through the Open Observatory b) data of relevance provided by third-parties such as Enumerate Nemo Eurostat State of the commons United Nations Conference on Trade and Developmen Digital Economy and Society Index EU open data portal c) online content gathered continuously, made accessible by means of the Visual Analytics Dashboard that covers: Online news and web sources Twitter posts Youtube videos Facebook pages d) FBK collected on-line datasets on cultural production, from the following sources: Wikipedia Tiktok Deviantart AllTheater IMDB and was gathered with the purpose to: a) monitor and analyze the state of cultural digitization via WLT analytical tools and through the Visual Analytical Dashboard, configured for culture-based web sources (news, websites, social networks, blogs, forums) and with domain-relevant keywords according to a series of pre-sets and new indicators [as described in Deliverable D1.1]. b) stimulate behavioural changes in the users of participatory platforms in order to favour production and access. To understand how this process of collective cultural production works, inDICEs chose Wikipedia as its first case study, in order to extract new useful indicators to fill the open Repository available for single researchers and institutes. ; This project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 870792.
