The identification of tourism as one of the most pressing and cross-cutting issues in contemporary Lisbon suggests the exploration of new themes and methodological approaches to complement the knowledge of the many problems and challenges that the city faces today. In a main plan, the effects of tourism on housing and its reconfigurations in the real estate market, the structure of property, residents, urban uses and experiences are highlighted. At a secondary level, other complementary effects - such as mobility and the urban environment, functional management and the use of public space - and possible mitigation measures in terms of public policies will have to be considered. In line with the cross-cutting objectives of the Cities and Territories research group of DC, this project also responds to the strategy of strengthening the metropolitan vocation intended by ISCTE-IUL.

This program aims to consolidate an investigation focused on the observation and analysis of the new challenges facing the city of Lisbon. Despite a thematic framework centered on tourism, it is considered appropriate to open the focus to further questions and articulation with two of the research areas of the center: territory, governance.
