Motivation & Impact
Motivation:
Buildings, and the manner in which we design, construct and maintain them are a significant contributor to the climate breakdown that we are witnessing1. Restorative and regenerative approaches can flip this phenomenon, enabling buildings, neighbourhoods and the broader built environment to become part of a broad climate regeneration solution.
Impact:
Aligned with the latest policies, REGEN’s holistic Assessment Framework for Urban Regeneration (AFUR) will lead to environmental sustainability, economic revitalization and social inclusion driven by revisited participative urban planning and management approaches. In four demonstration sites, urban areas will be regenerated preserving heritage and integrating new infrastructures while transforming citizen habits and aspirations. AFUR will support city stakeholders towards robust and sustainable decarbonisation pathways, strengthening their resilience to climate change through the implementation of selected regeneration interventions. Co-designed with stakeholders, new participatory processes and digital tool solutions will revitalise and rejuvenate underutilised or underdeveloped areas, improving the quality of life for residents, and attracting new investment and economic activity.”
