Regeneration in European Cities: Making connections PDF Print E-mail

This report from the Joseph Rowntree Foundation looks at successful urban regeneration schemes in mainland Europe in order to draw lessons for the UK.

The report looks at Norra Alvstranden in Gothenburg, Sweden’s second city; Kop van Zuid in Rotterdam, Europe’s main port; and Roubaix in Metropolitan Lille, a former textile town. It makes comparisons with similar places in the UK (Gateshead, North Southwark, and Bradford).

Each case study:

  • sets the context;
  • assesses actions and achievements;
  • looks at benefits for vulnerable groups;
  • sets out the main elements of the scheme;
  • includes reactions from UK partners; and
  • outlines implications for UK policy.

The study, which used local researchers and involved workshops in the case study cities, concludes with ten key messages - from the need to recognise that cities are in competition to valuing the role of culture in regeneration.
