Course 4: Urban Regeneration and Reconstruction
What can you learn in this course?
At the end of the
course, participants will have gained a deeper understanding of the
reasons, purpose and goals of urban regeneration and the reconstruction
of destroyed or neglected urban areas. Building on a brief historical
overview, the most important strategies and theoretical foundations will
be taught. The recommended strategies are developed both in terms of
their urban theory foundations and their individual strategic elements,
and illustrated using various case studies from different countries.
Particular aspects of urban regeneration and reconstruction that are
particularly relevant today and especially important in Ukrainian cities
are explored in separate chapters. The tools for urban regeneration and
reconstruction are systematically presented in the final chapter. These
are equally relevant for the various challenges and contexts of the

way, formulate core aspects and guidelines as well as objectives, and
work on suitable measures and projects to solve problems.
