3. Our previous steps and current aim… UNESCO world heritage sites Thanks to our participation to the EIP “Smart Cities and Communities Platform”, we have been able to contribute to the aggregation of various stakeholders around the theme of management of public services within historic city centres, in particular those city centres which have been recognised as UNESCO world heritage sites. ensuring a high standard of services within historic city centres One of the greatest challenges in the “Smart City” concept is ensuring a high standard of services within historic city centres, which, by their nature, cannot undergo major infrastructural reshaping. Today, administrators face the challenge of making historic city centres true parts of the city, without reducing them to scenograhies for tourists, ensuring their preservation, their vivability, the best management of cultural heritage,.. The sustainable mobility of people, services and goods, as well as waste management and energy consumption reduction are crucial parts of this strategy.
