Housing, Resettlement and Rehabilitation
The focus on housing, resettlement, and rehabilitation is crucial for the developing world, as rapid urbanization brings both opportunities and challenges. Migration to urban centers often leads to the development of unplanned settlements, slums, and overcrowded conditions, straining infrastructure and social services.
In this context, organizations like ISARD play a vital role by focusing on sustainable urban development. Their efforts in areas such as integrated planning, low-carbon and smart cities, and urban regeneration are key to addressing the complex dynamics of growth. By promoting strategies such as green growth, healthy cities, and urban heritage conservation, ISARD aims to create balanced, inclusive, and resilient urban spaces.
Additionally, ISARD’s activities, including research, technical consultancy, and advocacy, provide valuable resources to policymakers, urban planners, and other stakeholders. These efforts contribute to developing better planning systems, which can help mitigate the negative effects of rapid migration, ensure that infrastructure meets the needs of growing urban populations, and promote equitable access to housing and services.
In essence, ISARD’s work supports the goal of creating sustainable and livable urban environments in developing societies, laying the groundwork for long-term, inclusive development.
