“…This concept focuses on the elements that have the highest level of impact on project success [25]. Researchers have found that, in practice, if the CSFs of a project are well controlled and managed, then the probability of achieving project success will be significantly increased [11]. In research areas related to URPs, CSF has been studied to identify directions for improving project performance.…”

“…Yung, et al [35] explored the regeneration process of Tianzifang from the perspectives of sustainable development and concluded that the adaptive reuse of historical blocks was critical for the success of CRPs. In addition to the aforementioned factors, Yung, Zhang and Chan [11] suggested that opportunities for public engagement had an important impact on the success of CRPs.…”

“…For example, in Tianjin, the cultural and historic heritages related to the Revolution of 1911 were seriously damaged due to building demolition caused by property-led URPs [10]. In recent years, the preservation of regional culture and cultural heritage has been drawing increasing attention from practitioners and scholars because it is beneficial to enhancing the sense of community, local identity, and social development [11,12]. According to a study conducted by Chung and Lee [13], cultural resources play an important role in the sustainable development of cities due to their significant contribution to urban diversity and innovation.…”

“…The study of CSFs has been proven to be an effective approach to enhance project performance [25]. By identifying CSFs, project developers and managers can clearly understand the directions needed for performance improvement and then place their focus on the most important tasks [11]. Therefore, studies related to CRP CSFs should be conducted to provide valuable guidance for practitioners to achieve success in their CRPs.…”

Culture-led regeneration projects (CRPs) have been identified as an effective means for enhancing the sustainable development of cities. Related topics have been investigated; however, relatively little information is known about what factors are critical for achieving success in these kinds of regeneration projects. Based on a literature review and five case studies, this study contributes to the body of knowledge by identifying 25 critical success factors (CSFs) for managing CRPs in China. A questionnaire survey was designed to evaluate the relative importance of these factors from practitioners’ and researchers’ perspectives. In addition, a factor analysis was carried out to group these CSFs into five categories, namely government policies and culture-led regeneration strategies, stakeholder management and financing support, technical solutions for CRPs, social security, and industry development. The results demonstrated that cultural value management, integrating cultural development with urban planning, adopting sustainable development principles, reconstructing the city image and brand, and the availability of culture-led planning methods played the most important roles in the success of CRPs. The findings of this study can help practitioners enhance their regeneration project performance.

BackgroundThere is a need to develop innovative solutions to enhance safe and green physical environments, which optimise health, wellbeing and community participation among older adults. In order to develop solutions that meet the needs of a diverse ageing population, an interdisciplinary approach is needed.Our aim was to identify the needs of older people in relation to ageing well in the environment by bringing together knowledge from different stakeholder and interdisciplinary perspectives. MethodsAn international consortium (Retrofit living For ageing well through Understanding and Redesign of Built environments consortium: ReFURB) was established in April 2018, including ten core members, to (i) explore cutting-edge solutions to safe living for ageing populations and (ii) develop innovative approaches to everyday physical environments, which bring about health benefits. We used a codesign, interdisciplinary framework involving older adults, carers, physiotherapists, geriatricians, engineers, human movement experts, geographers and psychologists from the UK and Australia. This engaged people in a one day workshop that comprised a series of presentations from international speakers on urban design, social connectedness, hazards and injury prevention, and the physical environment. Small group discussions (facilitated by consortium members) followed presentations to consider the opportunities, challenges and barriers encountered with ageing, which included the use of creative engagement activities (LEGO® Serious Play, mind maps, poster gallery walk), to help participants share personal stories and reflect on the issues raised. Thematic coding was used to synthesise the outputs of the small group work. ResultsFive themes emerged across the workshops, comprising: access and transport; involvement of the whole community; restoration rather than redesign; assistive and digital technology; and intergenerational approaches. These dimensions related to the physical, social and nature-based qualities of everyday environments, as they pertain to ageing well. Conclusions

This entry examines urban renewal as a relevant and complex process in urbanism, encompassing different aspects of intervention in deprived neighborhoods. Urban renewal is defined by various perspectives, followed by an overview of urban renewal regarding its emergence, changes, and evolution, within the three historical generations proposed by Naomi Carmon. The entry also considers the relation between urban renewal and sustainability through four essential perspectives: physical, social, economic, and environmental. It finishes with a brief discussion of future research challenges in sustainable urban renewal studies.
