Military Assets as Public Spaces

Programme 2014 - 2020 URBACT III

Date of latest update: 2025-01-21

Description

Description (EN):

MAPS intends to enhance the system of military assets and areas in the development strategies of European cities for social cohesion and inclusion purposes. The project promotes the transnational exchange of experiences and learning, in order to develop an innovative methodology of intervention and urban planning, helping Municipalities to deal with the presence of abandoned military assets and empty spaces playing a major role in the collapse of social cohesion and inclusion in some parts of the city, which do not benefit from urban development policies and urban renewal. The project may promote a profitable exchange between local authorities and the private sector, supporting the spread of a culture aimed at investing on public spaces to foster social inclusion and cohesion. Abandoned urban areas are important resources from the economic, social, environmental and cultural point of view and it is fundamental to protect, develop and rethink them in order to benefit the community in a sustainable way on the long term. The renewal of dismissed military areas is not only an opportunity for the creation of new jobs, but also an important chance to transform featureless areas into places where cultural and social exchange & inclusion can be fostered. Indeed, MAPS will answer the needs of developing urban regeneration actions where social, cultural and economic matters become integrated in order to provide a joint solution.

Achievements (EN):

Redefining the military heritage: The Action Planning network MAPS (Military Assets as Public Spaces) was focused on enhancing former military heritage as key elements for sustainable urban strategies, combining both functional and social aspects. Highlighting the potential of the dismissed military areas can be deemed as the new symbols of a more conscious and participatory urban planning.
