On September 19th and 20th 2019, the international conference “Small Towns… from problem to resource” organized by the University of Salerno took place, as a debate about sustainable strategies for the valorisation of building, landscape and culture heritage in inland areas. RehabiMed was part of the Scientific Committee.
The more than 200 papers presented allowed us to know a number of interesting experiences carried out from universities and public administrations. On the one hand, a good knowledge about the problem has been reached, and on the other hand, we have seen a wide range of experiences and solutions innovative and sustainable, to avoid the progressive depopulation of rural Europe, which is creating a serious problem for the territorial balance.
