The aim is to create prototypes of interventions with a highly innovative content with respect to both current practices and the average level of urban regeneration interventions carried out in the last programming cycle. 

The objective is to carry out integrated actions in medium-sized urban centres, including through pilot or experimental interventions, in peripheral and marginal areas affected by degradation of buildings and open spaces, including historical urban contexts and disused, partially used and degraded areas. Interventions, therefore, that can play a role of spur to the spread of the redevelopment of suburban districts of medium-sized cities, interpreting sustainability especially in ecological terms, with particular reference to:

• redesign and modernization of infrastructure and urban services for residents and users of the city, reducing the consumption of natural resources and various forms of pollution and ensuring sustainable management; 
• development of sustainable mobility, also in integration with interventions of repermeabilization of public spaces aimed at reducing the hydrogeological risk; 
• construction, maintenance and renaturation of green infrastructure also for collective use; 
• strengthening of infrastructure connections and equipment at the territorial scale; 
• improvement of the quality of the territory through safety, increasing the resilience of the territories most exposed to hydrogeological risk and coastal erosion, maintenance and renaturalisation of green infrastructures and ecosystem services; 
• promotion of forms of active citizenship, implementation and management of interventions for local development.
