Abstract: This article presents the work of a cross-disciplinary Danish–Swedish collaboration project. The aim was to create best practices for sustainable urban settlements in the Öresund Region. Researchers and practitioners from municipalities in the region evaluated local and European projects for new urban areas and urban renewal using six concepts – identity, density, diversity, landscape, resources and governance. These concepts were also used for creating scenarios for four case areas and for a general discussion of sustainable urban environments summarised in a toolbox. The cooperation revealed diverse approaches to urban renewal and the significance of local legislation and financial prerequisites for renewal processes.
