The roles of medium-sized cities in processes of demographic challenge have taken many different paths. New forms of urban sprawl, deconcentrating processes, and the emergence of the diffuse city have marked a change in the relations that Spanish medium-sized cities have traditionally had with their most directly influenced territories. In line with the theoretical framework of the European next generation urban regeneration programme, the main aim of this paper is to propose a methodology to develop a project that fosters resilience strategies and the revitalization of local environments. This will also benefit the institutions that are involved in promoting it. The innovative methodology employed has been denominated the "We Propose!" project and has received several national acknowledgments. This is a strategically designed civic participation urban renewal project and has been subject to geographical analysis through field trips and in situ research. A case study into urban renewal strategies was carried out in Ciudad Real, which is a medium-sized city in Spain's third largest region. It includes an evaluation of both the design and implementation of what could be considered a successful case of urban renewal carried out in the city. This urban development initiative was undertaken by the public administration, but it was designed and proposed by local citizens.
中等城市在应对人口挑战方面的作用呈现出多种不同的路径。新型城市扩张、分散化进程以及弥散型城市的出现，标志着西班牙中等城市与受其直接影响的地区之间传统关系的变化。本研究旨在根据欧洲下一代城市再生计划的理论框架，提出一种方法来制定促进弹性策略和地方环境振兴的项目，这也将使参与推广的机构受益。所采用的创新方法被称为“我们提议！”项目，并获得了多项国家认可。这是一个经过战略设计的公民参与式城市更新项目，并通过实地考察和现场研究进行了地理分析。在西班牙第三大地区的雷亚尔城进行了城市更新策略的案例研究，评估了城市更新的设计和实施，这可以被认为是城市更新的成功案例。这一城市发展倡议由公共管理部门发起，但由当地居民设计和提议。
