Track: Housing - Renovation, Retrofit, Reuse

The most challenging housing conditions are often concentrated in specific neighbourhoods, where poor building quality, limited services, social vulnerability, and urban disconnection overlap. Addressing them requires more than physical rehabilitation and construction investment: it calls for integrated regeneration strategies that combine housing, public space, services, mobility, community engagement, and long-term public investment. The session will focus on how cities can design and deliver neighbourhood-scale regeneration that addresses both the physical and social dimensions of urban vulnerability, improving living conditions, strengthening local communities, and avoiding displacement.
