Abstract The Spatial Distribution Analysis arises from the need to investigate the issue of ongoing projects in Val d’Agri (Basilicata, Italy), within the RI.P.R.O.VA.RE. The purpose of the paper is to verify the effective distribution of resources in an internal area of the Basilicata Region and highlight the problems that lead to an imbalance in the use of resources belonging to a community and local policies. The structure of the paper is organized into four sections, preceded by an introduction to the topic: the first section contains a brief review of the main European Structural Funds and local policies in the area, of which it clarifies the objectives; the second illustrates the materials and methods used for the analysis of spatial distribution; the third section is dedicated to the Val d’Agri case study and the description of the first results; finally, in the last section, conclusions are drawn based on the analysis experience implemented.
