DECUB addresses the challenge of sustainable urban development and regeneration in European cities through a focus on the circular economy at the urban block level. The project aims to revitalise urban blocks by integrating strategies such as digital inventories, community engagement, and heritage considerations. By leveraging digital twins at the block level, it will explore varied interventions—ranging from soft renovation to deconstruction—tailored to each block's specific context. An expected result is a comprehensive assessment framework that maximises the reuse and recycling of materials and components, ultimately contributing to decarbonisation and climate resilience in line with EU policies like the European Green Deal.
