The town is a complicated system the main components of which are the community and its environment. Therefore, town planning and formation of green area should be performed taking into consideration the community’s activities and needs.

The town’s community, municipality and investors have to take an active part in solving this task. Urban green areas have to be formed systematically. In this system we can distinguish three groups

Abstract:
The thesis examines care-seeking for first births in low-income settlements of urban India. Care-seeking is framed as a dynamic, social process. The thesis shifts the research focus from non-use of maternity services to a more holistic notion of care-seeking strategies, and examines how they are shaped by patterned social relationships and their content. The study combines a prospective, qualitative design with multiple household perspectives. Seventy-seven in-depth interviews were conducted in 16 households.

This thesis studies the political and social practices of prosperous bazaar merchants and traders to understand the dynamics of power and authority in contemporary urban Pakistan.

This thesis studies the institutional foundations and micro-mechanisms by which social order is regulated and public goods are delivered in China’s urban grassroots communities. This study is motivated by the seemingly deviant phenomenon that massive internal migration and rapid urbanisation during China’s market reforms have not resulted in chaotic and familiar third world urban diseases. Instead, relatively governed, less contentious, highly dynamic yet ultimately soft migrant enclaves contrast sharply with what often feature most developing countries.

The aggregate housing affordability model developed here measures housing affordability problems more accurately and classifies the housing affordability status of households more appropriately than the conventional affordability models.

Over the past 20 years governments in Australia have been experimenting with spatial targeting as a way to address disadvantage. Spatially targeted programs are distinct from traditional functional programs in that they are geographically based and focus on working with communities and across governments to address multiple problems at the local level. In this context NSW and Queensland stand out as two states that adopted explicit spatial responses to urban disadvantage in the form of place management programs.

Abstract:
In an era of ‘community empowerment’ and the devolution of welfare responsibilities to local groups, it is important to understand what community comes to mean in everyday life. Through two growing projects in Glasgow, this thesis discusses such meanings in local processes of exclusion and urban land development, and uses the sites to explore too the politics of collective growing. To do so, I consider the meanings, tensions and contradictions that emerge between the practices of being communal and the naming of such as community.

Abstract:
This technical note analyzes the methodologies used to evaluate neighborhood upgrading programs, describes their results, and suggests approaches for future evaluations. Local and central governments are increasingly utilizing slum or neighborhood upgrading programs to deal with the multiple problems of urban poverty. These programs employ a methodology of integral interventions, combining of both infrastructure works and social services targeted to specific neighborhoods. Due to this variety of interventions the assessment of their impact is complicated and requires a comprehensive approach.

Under rapid urbanization that took place from around 1960 to 1990, the Republic of Korea has been facing various urban problems such as the expansion of urban slum, traffic congestion and environmental pollution. Among the various responses to these challenges, New Town development can be regarded as one of the most successful and effective strategies, which hasover 50 years of development history in five phases. Korea's New Towns were developed with three main purposes according to the periodic needs: industry support, housing supply, and nationwide balanced development. Phase I New Towns (19

Abstract:
This paper deals with the nature, content and implications of the Structural Adjustment Programme under implementation in Cambodia as a result of an agreement between the Royal Government of Cambodia and the International Monetary Fund/World Bank. The discussion is set in the context of the legacy of war and devastation during the seventies and eighties on the one hand, and the imperatives of long-term development of a poor agrarian economy on the other. The paper recognizes Cambodia's historic opportunity to break away from a one-sided economic and political dependence. While. the programmes

Abstract:
Quibdó es una ciudad Colombiana, capital del departamento del Chocó y una de las poblaciones más importantes en la región del Pacífico Colombiano. Pese a estar ubicada en una de las regiones más biodiversas del país, la ciudad presenta graves problemas de pobreza y desigualdad social. En el contexto nacional, esta ciudad no alcanza un nivel mínimo de desarrollo social en cuestiones de salud, vivienda, educación y servicios públicos. Debido a su retraso urbano y social, es necesario implementar medidas mediante las cuales la ciudad supere esta vulnerabilidad y alcance un grado de prosperidad ur

Cuatro de las megaciudades del mundo se han consolidado en la región de América Latina (LatAm): Ciudad de México, Sao Paulo, Río de Janeiro y Buenos Aires, mientras que hay dos más en proceso: Lima y Bogotá. Estas grandes aglomeraciones urbanas no solo son motores económicos nacionales esenciales de gran importancia demográfica; pero se han extendido a las ciudades-región que encarnan los desafíos de desarrollo más agudos: degradación ambiental, ineficiencia de los recursos, exclusión social, desigualdad de ingresos, empobrecimiento, inseguridad, violencia, vulnerabilidad social y económica al

Abstract:
Muchas ciudades latinoamericanas experimentan un crecimiento territorial desbalanceado en el que coexisten áreas muy dinámicas con otras fuertemente rezagadas en términos sociales y económicos, habitualmente localizadas en la periferia urbana. Ese desbalance se refleja en un suministro de servicios, empleos, áreas verdes, espacios públicos y comunales, así como en usos de suelo, que son muy desiguales para diferentes áreas de la urbe y que no necesariamente están correlacionados con la localización de la población. Esta situación crea, para la ciudad como un todo, varias ineficiencias e inequi

Abstract:
Advocates have long raised concerns about the potential for partner violence after a spouse’s or partner’s return from prison, but few programs or policies exist to prevent it. In an era in which experiences of incarceration and reentry—and by extension, experiences of a partner’s or coparent’s incarceration and reentry—are commonplace in low-income urban communities, the safety of families reuniting after a prison stay merits serious attention. The current study examines qualitative data from 167 reentering men and their partners to identify contextual influences on post-prison partner violen
