Urban regeneration in the architecture degree: Workshop experience in San Cristobal, Madrid

Urban regeneration in Spain is essential due to the age of obsolete urban fabrics and their buildings (Martin-Consuegra et al., 2022). Different urban regeneration policies seek to improve the quality of life of citizens and the environment (Programme, 2018). For this reason, architecture degree students demand greater environmental sensitivity and a more significant commitment to its conservation. Nevertheless, from the perspective of technical education in urban planning, different workshops are developed to promote urban regeneration by solving social and environmental problems associated with the execution of planning. This paper presents the methodological results obtained through participatory collaboration in the regeneration workshops of the San Cristobal case study of Madrid by the participation of administration, neighbourhood associations, alums, and Urban Facilities teachers.
