The emerging need for a paradigm shift in the concept of development in more humanistic and ecological terms has meant that culture and cultural heritage play a critical role in the achievement of this new paradigm of a sustainable city. The framework of this paper is oriented to specific tools that go from principles to concrete urban policies outlined here for achieving a sustainable, inclusive city development, using cultural heritage as an asset characterized by specific multidimensional values.Keywords: cultural heritage, SDGs, sustainable development ER -
