With their multiple values, Underground Built Heritage sites and artefacts are precious resources that should be protected for now and future. With their generative potential, the UBH sites and artefacts can be effectively used as catalysts for attaining community valori-sation, achieving sustainable regeneration and development, and improving the quality of life in different localities. This book, focusing on the UBH potentials of Göreme and the Cap-padocia region in Turkey, documents the research and living lab experience conducted wi-thin the COST Action CA18110 Underground4Value framework between 2019 and 2023. It develops a reliable knowledge base concerning the UBH as the catalyst for community valo-risation, heritage conservation, urban and rural regeneration, and sustainable community development in Cappadocia. Within the framework of the COST Action, a participatory and inclusive planning process was followed to cooperate with the local stakeholders and the community. Hence, the book presents this participatory and inclusive process and outco-mes of the living lab and Strategic Transition Practice approach. Besides, it presents studies on stability monitoring and controlling, geological and geomorphological mapping and vi-sualisation of the UBH, artificial intelligence text-mining, and sentiment analysis methodologies for discovering tourist views and the complexity of heritage conservation, sustainable regeneration, and tourism development in Göreme and Cappadocia.
