AnnotationYoung people and older people are central to sustainable communities and to the development of more inclusive public spaces. They make up higher proportions of those living in the UK's most deprived areas. They are more likely than other groups to lack social capital and access to resources and services. This report explores the potential of intergenerational practice (IGP) to aid the achievement of sustainable communities, especially through neighbourhood and public space regeneration and renewal programmes. From 1 September 2005 the International Centre for Urban Regeneration and Development Studies (ICRRDS) has been known as the Centre for the Study of Cities and Regions (CSCR). (RH).
