Abstract

The 3S RECIPE data collection provides the research and policy audience with clear, tried, and tested city examples of how to 1) tackle the key socio-economic causes of urban shrinkage, 2) future-proof sustainability actions in urban redevelopment and regeneration, and 3) enhance the role of long-term strategic planning. The core data collection is comprised of 22 original research outputs in the form of policy briefs, revealing a series of smart shrinkage solutions implemented during the period 2000-2020 in 7 cities across Europe, including Le Havre (France), Maastricht (Netherlands), Łódź (Poland), Porto (Portugal), Stoke-on-Trent (UK), Timișoara (Romania), and Zonguldak (Turkey). Research findings are presented in the form of textual narrative with maps, photographs, figures, charts, and tables in PDF format. In addition, this data collection contains the project's key background materials, detailed workshop notes, work package reports, and links to the original creative artwork produced to make the research outputs publically accessible in the form of short video films, hosted by YouTube as well as the 3S RECIPE project's website.
