Abstract

The aim of this paper will be to analyze how social and economic management affects on sustainable neighborhood regeneration projects. Specifically, will go in depth of processes of social and economic management in Spanish neighbourhood regeneration processes, where environmental and social benefits are the main goal of the intervention, but finance is, nowadays, an obstacle. Therefore, this study of real cases will offer a view on which are the environmental objectives, how these projects are funded in Spain and what is the role of neighbors in the process. On the other hand, will help to identify different possibilities of funding to get this type of projects through successfully. A mapping of significant existing projects will be necessary to reach the main objective of the research, which will produce unpublished documentation, useful for future research on this matter, identifying cases of success and failures.
