D4.4. Rural Regeneration Activities: Data, Results, Conclusions and Recommendations

The main objective of Work Package 4 was to provide quantifiable evidences of the potential role of CNH as a driver for sustainable growth. To do this, WP4 has been monitoring over the last 2.5 years the performance of the deployed Action Plans (or regeneration schemes) in the 6 initial Replicators (Rs), and the 9 Additional Replicators (ARs) included in the last phase of the project. Performance’s monitoring has been done through selected cross-thematic and multiscale Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and through the implementation of a holistic approach based on Systems Dynamics (SD) for properly assessing the heritage-led regeneration. Six SD models, one per SIA, have been developed and are freely accessible through the Monitoring Platform in the RURITAGE Resources Ecosystem (RRE), as explained in the deliverable D4.3. These SD models are useful for laying out different what-if scenarios. Last, WP4 has been contributing to create sense of ownership of CNH developing a participatory co-monitoring approach.
