Handling Change in Historic Urban Landscapes

A comparative analysis of urban conservation management policies, legislation, and tools in Bordeaux (France), Florence (Italy), and Edinburgh (UK) reveals both effective strategies and critical challenges for handling change in historic urban landscapes. The study identifies good practices that could be replicated or adapted to improve conservation processes in other UNESCO World Heritage Sites across Europe and beyond. By critically reflecting on the UNESCO Historic Urban Landscape Recommendation of 2011, this research provides insights into how contemporary challenges can be better addressed through refined urban conservation approaches.
