During the past 10 years 'partnership' has become a defining
characteristic of British urban regeneration. It is widely
recognised that the multiple problems of economic decline, social
exclusion and dereliction require holistic and area-specific
responses that can only be provided by effective multi-agency
working, through local partnerships. Yet, to date, there has been
little systematic research into why partnerships succeed or fail;
into what works and what does not. This report provides an in-depth
study of the factors that influence the effectiveness of urban
regeneration partnerships, and how they work within the emerging
national policy context. Case studies were carried out in 27
partnerships in eight city-regions in England and Scotland and in
the Welsh Valleys. Urban regeneration through partnership
highlights the key lessons of partnership, exploring good practice
in: * leadership; * visioning and consensus building; * translation
of vision into workable objectives; * including the community and
business in partnership; * human resources. The report explores
what it calls the 'foundations of partnership', including the
modernisation of local government, a coherent regional development
framework and a sound national urban policy. In addition, it
provides detailed information on the case studies themselves, and
gives good practice recommendations. Urban regeneration through
partnership is essential reading for workers and policy makers in
urban regeneration partnerships, communities involved in urban
regeneration and national and local government, as well as anyone
with an interest in neighbourhood regeneration strategies and
practice.
