European Industrial Heritage; the Challenge – Hengelo, 18-19 May 2006 18-05-2006 Introduction “European Industrial Heritage; the Challenge” focuses on brownfield
redevelopment and the reuse of industrial heritage. The conference is organised
by the City of Hengelo. The City of Hengelo is one of the partners of the EU
REVIT project. Several presentations and field visits will elaborate on the
current paradigm on the subject, from a European, national, regional and local
perspective. This broad perspective enables everyone who is involved in the
revitalisation of industrial heritage to experience current developments and
update their knowledge.
Description
Within North-West Europe, six partners (Stuttgart, Medway, Nantes, Tilburg,
Torfaen and Hengelo) have come together to improve the regeneration of their
brownfield sites by sharing experience and developing new concepts and
innovative approaches. Until August 2007, the transnational working teams will
develop new approaches for different aspects of brownfield regeneration.
Recommendations on intelligent re-use of industrial heritage potentials are part
of the Joint Pilot Projects. The REVIT project is an EU Interreg IIIb programme.
