SATRUN Project - Manual EWH - conservation-led urban regeneration – the case of Edinburgh World Heritage
This manual is focused on heritage-led urban regeneration of the Old and New Towns of Edinburgh World Heritage Site. The described system forms one of the key areas within the politics of city management in Edinburgh. Moreover, it explains how heritage can play a critical role in promotion of the city, coordination of its key stakeholders towards joint objectives and enable sustainable development.

European Standards for Vocational Training in Urban Regeneration. This SATURN partnership involves Edinburgh World Heritage (United Kingdom), the Warsaw School of Economics (Poland), CEIT ALANOVA (Austria). The project is in-kindly supported by IURS (Czech Republic).
European Standards for Vocational Training in Urban Regeneration
Our partnership aims at establishing proper and reliable standards of vocational training in integrated urban regeneration. The principle is to provide a basis for thinking about urban regeneration and therefore the partnership involves academics and practitioners. We would like to achieve through provision of manuals containing examples of best practices in urban regeneration form Europe. The project is funded by the Leonardo da Vinci fund to develop a strong partnership and framework for future collaboration; however we are planning to expand the project through a different stream of funding.
In the first year of the project partners exchange know-how in field of urban regeneration as a interdisciplinary subject of didactic and vocational activity, comprising heritage management, financial aspects of regeneration projects, GIS analysis, sustainability and innovative applied urban conservation methods. The main approach will be continuous dialogue between partner institutions during meetings, mutual visits and through exchange of didactic and training materials.
During the second year of the project the partners will develop manuals for practitioners from each partner country focused on different aspects of urban regeneration, based on the most up to date case studies from each partner. This approach will ensure that partners can present good examples of practice in their countries and provide an opportunity to think how these could work in other places.
The final manuals should form a basis for programmes of vocational training and for formulation of uniform standards for vocational training in the field of urban regeneration. Its particular value is in focus on the World Heritage Site Cities, which are required to maintain highly effective management regimes in order to meet standards set up by the Word Heritage Committee, not only in spatial terms, but also social, concerning outreach schemes. The outcomes of the project will be translated into native languages of each partner.
