Description

As the world strives to meet the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030, this book deftly examines the capacity and potential of public space design to tackle key issues related to climate change, violence, safety, law, cultural and gender inclusivity as well as creative and community engagement.

Presenting empirical and theoretical insights from urban planners, criminologists, disability advocates, geographers and artists, Public Space and the Sustainable Development Goals highlights the increased demand for high quality public open spaces for diverse populations. It answers the pivotal question of how to transform public spaces into safe, vibrant, and inclusive places that are resilient to contemporary social and environmental pressures. Expert contributors explore solutions for improving public space planning, design and policy with a focus on UN SDG 11, Target 7.

This timely book is an essential guide for scholars of geography, urban design, sociology and criminology. It is also a useful informative resource for practitioners of urban planning and landscape architecture.
