The Historic Urban Landscape (HUL) approach offers an integrated understanding of historic urban areas as dynamic systems in which heritage, urban transformation, and governance are deeply interconnected. Despite its growing theoretical consolidation, its practical implementation remains fragmented, particularly in relation to the integration of heritage conservation, urban planning, and the participation of local communities. This paper explores the potential of community engagement to support the implementation of the HUL approach through a comparative analysis of the old city of Genoa and the historic centre of Porto, highlighting how the involvement of local communities still takes discontinuous forms and is not yet fully integrated into urban governance processes.
