Aims and Scope
Aims
The idea behind Urban Planning and Sustainable Development is to answer the city's problems and concerns which may refer to a component or complex systems. Urban planning attempts to scale the city structure, stipulate the requirements of QOL, and propose methods and tools to implement the optimum environmental resilience of a component or system.
