Aims and Scope
Aims:
The primary objective of the journal "Urban Planning and Sustainable Development" is to address the multifaceted challenges and concerns faced by contemporary cities. This involves both individual components and complex urban systems. Urban planning aims to structure city layouts, stipulate the requirements for quality of life (QOL), and propose methods and tools to optimize environmental resilience for both components and systems. Additionally, urban planning seeks to establish mechanisms to prevent undesirable developments. This journal focuses on a wide range of issues related to urban planning and sustainable development, aiming to provide comprehensive solutions and insights.
Scope:
The journal encompasses a broad spectrum of applications within the realms of planning and sustainability, including structural, urban, heritage, social, and spatial domains. Papers submitted to this journal should address significant recent developments in city sustainability within the context of urban planning. Furthermore, the journal serves as a platform for researchers to share and obtain information on cutting-edge developments in urban design, architectural solutions, renovation, and city evolution. We encourage the submission of manuscripts that offer substantive contributions to sustainability and planning, particularly those addressing the complex challenges of enhancing the quality of life in urban environments. By fostering a multidisciplinary dialogue, the journal aims to advance the understanding and practice of urban planning and sustainable development.
