“…The St. Clement's CLT demonstrates that the CLT model can be applied in adaptive reuse and conservation projects with heritage buildings in London as an alternative to demolition and new construction, but this requires professional skills and the institutionalisation of voluntary work throughout the project (Kip and Oevermann, 2022).…”

“…In the first aspect, the CLT model has proven to be an effective mechanism for providing new dwellings, in most cases, from microscale interventions (Archer, 2022;Kip and Oevermann, 2022;Spicer et al, 2022); it can work in both urban and rural areas JPPEL 15,3 (Moore, 2021); and it can be applied in adaptive reuse and conservation projects with heritage buildings to generate affordable dwellings through the regeneration and re-appropriation of empty homes and derelict properties for community use (Archer, 2022;Kip and Oevermann, 2022;Thompson, 2015).…”

Purpose In pursuit of affordable housing, the Sustainable Urban Development Act of 2021 contains regulations for community land trusts (CLTs) in Peru. This study aims to assess whether the CLT model can be an effective tool for low-income housing generation in the Peruvian context. Design/methodology/approach This study draws upon information collected from qualitative research and official statistical data to identify the main problems in the Peruvian housing sector. The authors gathered evidence from specialised literature to examine the benefits and drawbacks of CLT implementation and functionality as experienced in the USA, England and Canada in contrast to Puerto Rico and Brazil. To assess the potential effectiveness of the CLT model in Peru, the results from the examination of both groups of countries are analysed and contrasted with the evidence from the Peruvian experience. Findings Through micro-scale interventions in places with a consolidated sense of community, the CLT model can be an effective tool for affordable housing generation. However, no robust evidence suggests that the CLT model could be an effective tool for large-scale intervention in cities with disorganised and accelerated growth. Moreover, the level of housing affordability defined by the CLT model may be insufficient for people from the lowest-income percentiles. Originality/value Peruvian CLT adaptation will require a shift in individual property mind-sets. Furthermore, the model should be enhanced by governmental support through public subsidies and backed by mortgage loans and land grant programmes.

“…This kind of heritage reuse, in which the aesthetics of heritage play a leading role, however, often leads to extreme commodification of heritage, place branding, gentrification and the exclusion of many narratives and voices (see for instance Cizler, 2012; De Cesari and Dimova, 2019; Emery, 2019; Pendlebury et al , 2018). On the other hand, more ethical approaches which open up heritage to community-led reuse practices might contribute to social innovation (Fava, 2022) and projects that show more community-oriented trajectories of development (Kip and Oevermann, 2022; Plevoets and Sowińska-Heim, 2018).…”

PurposeHeritage reuse, in which the aesthetics of heritage play a leading role, often leads to extreme commodification of heritage, place branding, gentrification and the exclusion of many narratives and voices. In order to understand how such processes of erosion and estrangement between heritage and local communities can be countered, while still redeveloping heritage buildings for contemporary urban needs, this paper explores with what kind of practices and heritage approaches these tensions can be mitigated, learning from recent experiences in Praga district.Design/methodology/approachBased on qualitative semi-structured interviews in a case study of a living lab of ongoing heritage reuse practice in Praga district in the city of Warsaw, Poland, the authors identify practices and approaches that can help to overcome tensions between the ethics and aesthetics of heritage reuse.FindingsIn rapidly changing district like Praga, local communities and others are struggling to compete process of change that impact their heritage, and the engagement with it. Although the local community is quite active in addressing various urban challenges and preserving the character of Praga including heritage elements, the conditions under which these community-led heritage reuse practices operate are quite impactful, as it appears that cooperation with local institutions is vital in order to embed community-led heritage reuse practices to overcome the tensions between ethics and aesthetics of heritage reuse.Originality/valueThis paper presents an in-depth analysis of a living lab of community-led heritage reuse. As such, the paper highlights various practices of community organizations and citizen initiatives that address heritage reuse, as well as the conditions under which these initiatives operate.
