Summary

Rabat's urban development successfully reconciles its UNESCO World Heritage status with modern territorial attractiveness. The city, recognized for its historic and cultural significance, has implemented an integrated urban program that balances heritage preservation with contemporary growth. This approach leverages Rabat's unique identity to enhance its competitiveness in a globalized context. The study, based on documentary analysis, highlights how the city's built fabric—inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List—serves as both a cultural asset and a catalyst for sustainable urban development.
