Die Debatte wurde in der Offentlichkeit vor allem unter den Begriffen „Corporate Social Responsibility“ „Corporate Citizenship“ sowie „Nachhaltigkeits- und Wertemanagement“ gefuhrt. Die Auseinandersetzung mit diesen Themen wird in Teilen des Unternehmertums als Chance begriffen, durch verantwortungsvolles Wirtschaften die eigene Marktposition zu starken sowie die Legitimation und das Vertrauen der Gesellschaft in die Wirtschaft zuruck zu gewinnen. Kann ethisch verantwortungsvolles Wirtschaften einen Beitrag zum unternehmerischen Erfolg leisten? Dieser Frage wird im Buch nachgegangen und die Umsetzung ethischen Wirtschaftens durch ein Ethikmanagement dargelegt.

The topic was chosen in a bottom-up decision: the regional meetings on site were asked to discuss and suggest a favorite topic, and the main auditorium of the General Assembly finally voted for the theme. In this case, the selected topic was indeed submitted through our Regional Secretariat!Under this premise, the OWHC Regional Secretariat for Northwest Europe and North America organized its 2016 Regional Conference in Stralsund containing a profound thematic workshop on “Community Involvement”. Next to practice examples on the topic of how community is already involved in our OWHC member cities, the EUROCITIES network was invited to the conference to present best practices from their point of view and to open up the scope.The Regional Secretariat Northwest Europe and North America intends to provide further benefit to members of the OWHC, but also all other urban heritage sites dealing with the constant struggle of a successful integration of the local community. This practice-oriented guidebook on „community involvement“ is supposed to extend the conference report of Stralsund for a wider audience from a scientific point of view, and give even more profound insight on the different perspectives of community work.
The approach of the OWHC guidebook is to also integrate project examples from COMUS (“Community-led Urban Strategies in Historic Towns” – a Council of Europe/EU project with support from OWHC Regional Secretariat Northwest Europe and North America) as well as the EUROCITIES network and strengthen a fruitful cooperation with these two networks.For profound information on the topic from a scientific perspective, an introduction will be given to the state-of-the-art of research as well as a detailed description of the COBA model (Communication Model for Built Heritage Assets (http://www.herman-project.eu/files/publisher/downloads_public/Outputs/HerMan_Finale_Brochure_english_for_web1.pdf )). The idea of COBA is to support and stimulate a more professional heritage communication and a more efficient use of existing resources, based on a stronger identification of citizens with their heritage assets.

It introduces a methodology based on existing heritage resources, laying out an integrated approach with emphasis on the process. It further argues that urban heritage is not an isolated concept on its own, but is part of a larger system, and therefore should be considered in the entirety of a heritageled and community-based development process. In the context of the COMUS project, heritage is considered as a means and not the end result itself, demonstrating an increased role by communities in decision making. Thus, COMUS advocates for working with all layers of society simultaneously, encouraging a new constructive dialogue among all involved.The final publication shares the wide-ranging experiences gathered during the implementation of this methodology, presenting its key technical and organisational principles, with the aim of applying this methodology successfully elsewhere.
