The Role of Universities in Urban Regeneration: Reframing the Analytical Approach
Fernández Esquinas, Manuel
Pinto, Hugo
urban regeneration
Universities have resources for urban dynamics that are difficult to provide by other
means. For this reason, these organizations are crucial actors in urban regeneration. This article
sets out a conceptual framework for the analysis of the role played by higher education
institutions in urban renewal initiatives. It is based on an integrated analysis of the uses of the
university both as promoters of business innovation and in terms of their civic and social
outcomes. Urban regeneration of cities in decline is used as a ¿strategic research site¿ to
understand universities¿ potential. The discussion is organized around four types of contributions:
physical infrastructure, human resources, economic development and civic engagement. The
debate enlightens the options for integrating universities¿ capabilities as an asset for urban
regeneration and sets out implications for the institutionalization of practices and decisionmaking
in this field.
