Abstract Urban regeneration is an increasingly emerging topic in our urban realities. The challenge that the port cities have to face lies in the disposal of large areas (often located on the waterfronts), in which it is necessary to establish new functions, to overcome the condition of marginal and degraded areas and become an integral space of the cities and of interaction with the element of water. The paper reports research developed in the university field starting from a public competition. The research starts from an in-depth study in the literature of the definition of urban regeneration, from the analysis of virtuous international case studies to arrive at the identification of an approach and key issues to be able to develop a regeneration process that is sustainable and leads to an improvement in quality of life of its inhabitants. Particular attention is paid to current policies and strategies related to concepts such as: sustainability, circular economy, resilience and new technologies. According to the "learning-by-doing" approach, the Pra'-Palmaro case study is analyzed here to highlight the strategies implemented for a multidisciplinary and multi-stakeholder urban regeneration project. The research can therefore help other port cities in the world to realize sustainable urban regeneration, also attentive to the participation and involvement of stakeholders.
