Revitalización de barrios patrimoniales en áreas metropolitanas: propuestas de monitoreo y gestión integrada

Abstract

In Chile, the revitalization and enhancement of the urban heritage faces urgent governance c enges and requires adequate intervention criteria. Heritage management demands greater coordination between processes of protection, revitalization and urban development, with monitoring methodologies that provide feedback for decision-making and support plans and heritage projects for different types of urban areas. In this framework, we propose an Index of Evolution of Heritage Neighborhoods developed by the research project “Impact of heritage protection instruments on the dynamics of metropolitan neighborhoods” (2019) that allows to compare specifics processes in different types of neighborhoods. Conclusions are raised about the utility of the IEHN to differentiate post-protection dynamics and project revitalization policies that combine the protection of cultural property and urban development.
