Abstract

Nowadays revitalisation is treated as a process implemented in areas of a different character, the aim of which is to eliminate barriers that prevent or slow down their broadly understood economic  invigoration. It is directed towards comprehensive problem solving. Revitalisation is one of the most important tasks for local policy and is perceived as area modelling (including urbanising areas). In various regions of Europe, this process has been taking place for over three decades, while in Poland it is a relatively new one. In our country revitalization has been accelerated, among others, owing to availability of co-financing, provided by greater access to dedicated EU funds as well as to legal and administrative regulations. Actions supporting revitalisation process with the use of proven instruments are also increasingly undertaken in the countries that want to join the EU structures and/or enter the path of modelling their own economies, adapting them to contemporary socio-economic challenges within their own or available possibilities.  

Based on the analysis of the course of revitalisation process, with particular emphasis on urbanizing areas from selected EU countries, Poland and Georgia, the conclusions set out general regularities related to the studied actions and to their implementation.
