This project focuses on enhancing regenerative urban renewal through circular solutions at the neighbourhood level. It aims to develop a decision-making instrument to assist municipalities and developers in integrating circularity into urban renewal projects. The approach involves a multi-stakeholder co-creation process, incorporating urban living labs (ULL) to engage key stakeholders. The decision-making instrument is validated through cases in four countries, including residential and non-residential buildings and public spaces, leveraging diverse contexts. The novelty lies in harmonising technical and social research methods towards a comprehensive sustainability assessment. Expected results include improved recirculation of environmental and socio-economic resources, ultimately fostering more sustainable urban environments in various cities.
