Abstract
From a range of perspectives, participation and partnership have been considered key elements of regeneration. This article starts by unpacking this view, exploring some of the differing definitions and models of part nership for urban regeneration. Partnerships can be empowering, but they can also be disempowering for communities and for the pro fessionals who work with them. Drawing upon case study materials, the article concludes by exploring how community participation might be supported in empowering rather than disempowering ways.Keywords
