| The philosophy of nations across the globe is to value and take pride on what is local. But in some areas of Egypt, you may find local community see what is local as of lower worth and value. A percentage of the new generations that is not few are not proud of their local urban heritage. According to Paul Oliver’s conception of tradition and focusing on the concept of “Handing Down” to provide a crucial key to understanding traditional architecture and built environments where it explains the actual process of transmission from one generation to another. The research aims to demonstrate the concept of tradition and heritage and how heritage conservation movement evolved. It tackles two cities as case studies, the leading city is Bologna in Italy and then discussing a potential city, Fuwa in Egypt, which can follow the steps of the European project. Paul Oliver’s debate initiates many questions, such as, what happened to the “Handing Down” process of tradition or in other words, heritage in the community of Fuwa. Also, the research discusses how urban regeneration as a strategy can be a tool of reviving tradition and heritage. | ||||
