摘　　要：Over time,urban centers begin to show signs of vulnerability and to lose their identity.These centers,often referred to as“devitalized”or“lost”urban centers,require urgent urban revitalization programs.Until today,most urban intervention actions were based on physical principles,which caused the disappearance of important dynamics of vitality and give rise to the concepts of urban renewal,rehabilitation,and requalification.These concepts create a utopian idea about the city.This article intends to define strategic guidelines that will transform a devitalized area to an area more attractive to socio-economic investment.These guidelines must meet the“right to the city”by promoting the urban center as a space of belonging,with values of citizenship,ethics,and aesthetics and that does not only focus on the functional level,but essentially social.It is against this background that some successful cases of urban revitalization actions in the medium port cities of Almada and Setúbal in Portugal and Batumi in Georgia are presented.Presenting these cases is essential for understanding the situations,methods,and strategic actions to be applied in urban revitalization.This paper gathered that obtaining creative and innovative ideas would contribute to the promotion of urban revitalization.
