MOYA, Ana. Sociocultural sustainability in the multicultural and historical urban landscape in Mouraria neighbourhood, Lisbon. []. , 17, pp.179-199. ISSN 2182-1267.  https://doi.org/10.17127/got/2019.17.008.

Gentrification caused by city tourism, together with the cultural diversity of the new immigrant residents have effects on the transformation of the identity of the historic urban landscape of Mouraria, in Lisbon. Processes of evolution of the heritage identity depend as much upon urban rehabilitation policies as in the actors and residents active in the socio-economic and cultural development of the neighbourhood. Mapping the actor’s space-time relations in the urban space of Mouraria, allow us to recognise the sociocultural sustainable patterns present in the neighbourhood, and to understand the potentials of development, identity preservation and regeneration of its landscape heritage. The associative structure plays a central role in the socio-cultural sustainability of the neighbourhood, both in the preservation of cultural legacies and in the construction of new social, intercultural and economic dynamics based on the development and participation of the communities in the construction of Mouraria’s patrimonial identity.
