Smart shrinkage solutions? The future of present-day urban regeneration on the inner peripheries of Europe

Year: 2023

Type: article

Abstract: • The Urban Futures method can be successfully applied to complex social phenomena. • 22 effective urban regeneration projects are uncovered in 7 shrinking cities, with an overall 57% chance to deliver the intended benefits in 40 years' time. • Business-orientated projects are found to be most resilient vis-à-vis the future. • People-orientated projects are least likely to perform well by 2060. • Place-orientated projects fall in between the other two types of urban regeneration.
