This paper aims to analyse the conversion of the former Desterro Hospital, in Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, both throughout its history and regarding its recent transformation into an innovative project with touristic and cultural purposes. Dating back to 1591, the then Desterro Monastery was transformed into a hospital in 1848, after the extinction of religious orders in Portugal. It kept these hospital functions until 2007, when the Portuguese state decided to close it and to sell the building. The project of comprehensive rehabilitation of the former monastery intended to create a new point of interest in the city of Lisbon, a mix-used building for both locals and foreigners. The restoration project conforms to the historic building, adapting it to present-day requirements. This raises questions on the preservation and identity, also taking into consideration key aspects in terms of sustainability. This paper intends to analyse this case study as an example of maintenance and restoration of a historic building which served various purposes related to religion and healthcare, and which is now starting a "new life", while evaluating such project within the scope of sustainable tourism. Keywords: monastery, hospital, heritage restoration, mixed-use rehabilitation project, sustainable tourism

AbstractThe municipality of Bahía Solano possesses important tourist attractions. The majority of them consist of natural wonders such as whale, dolphin and bird watching. Its marine area offers diving courses, all types of fishing, surfing, other water sports etc. The enormous amount of natural wealth stands in contrast to the lack of local development and the high rate of poverty among its inhabitants. Bahía Solano has enviable tourist professions but a low level of competition. This research proposes a methodology of social innovation, elaborated by researchers, that involves nature, communities and tour operators, where a connection of surveys with the expectations and perceptions of the different entities (inhabitants, tourists, and tour operators) has been obtained.
