Urban Adaptation to Climate Change
Urban areas face rising risks from extreme heat due to climate change, intensifying thermal stress and exacerbating social inequalities. Urban climate refuges—cool, accessible indoor and outdoor public spaces that maintain their ordinary functions—are increasingly adopted as a local adaptation measure to protect vulnerable populations during heat events. This study aims to develop and test a SWOT–CAME analytical framework to evaluate and compare …
Touristification levels of public space based on activities
Gentrification and touristification is driving the urban transformation of historic centers. Pedestrianized public space encapsulates these effects, supporting both building-related and spatial activities. While touristification has been studied at neighborhood or census tract levels—distinguishing fully touristified from transitioning areas—public space remains underexplored, with research often limited to small-scale samples. This study address…
Relations between ground floor activity and the touristification of public spaces in historic port centres
The historic centres of Western Mediterranean port cities are experiencing significant urban transformations driven by touristification. Commercial gentrification and privatisation of public spaces are key processes reshaping urban areas, often displacing local residents and businesses. Existing research typically examines these variables in isolation while overlooking their interconnected and cumulative impacts. This study proposes a comprehensi…
Geosocial networking for active citizen initiatives from a relational approach
PPGIS platforms have been widely used to map social actors since the emergence of open access webGIS platforms. This identification of citizen initiatives is based on the physical location, but is rarely combined with social networking. This research seeks to close that gap by using the platIC web-based mapping tool for citizen initiatives, together with their interrelationships. Therefore, a methodical procedure has been defined to construct a g…
Intangible cultural heritage as a tool for urban and social regeneration in neighbourhoods. Participatory process to identify and safeguard ICH in the city of Malaga, Spain
Not only the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), but also researchers have called for the involvement of local communities in the management of intangible cultural heritage (ICH) in the last decade. Despite awareness of this need for local involvement, there is no consensus regarding common criteria and implementation methods, especially in the case of small urban neighbourhoods. This research seeks to fill …
