Analysis of Land Use/Land Cover Changes and Prediction of Future Changes With Land Change Modeler: Case of Belek, Turkey
(Springer, 2023) Akdeniz, Halil Burak; Serdaroğlu Sağ, Neslihan; İnam, Şaban
In the areas declared to be a tourism center by state planning, a rapid tourism-related development occurs depending on the investments in tourism, which causes a dramatic land use/land cover (LULC) change. Determining, monitoring, and modeling of LULC changes are required in order to ensure the conservation-use balance and sustainability within such vulnerable areas that are under development pressure. This study consists of four steps. In the first step, the Landsat images dated 1985, 2000, 2010, and 2021 were classified using the maximum likelihood method and the LULC of Belek Tourism Center located in Turkey were determined. The second step included the identification of areal and spatial changes between the LULC classes for the four periods. In the third step, the LULC changes in Belek Tourism Center for 2040 were modeled using the land change modeler. Last step evaluated the relationship between the modeled spatial development pattern and the current planning decisions. According to the results obtained during 36 years, the rates of built-up, forest, and water body areas have increased by 11.91%, 13.67%, and 0.82%, respectively, whereas the rates of barren land and agricultural areas have reduced by 22.25% and 4.15%, respectively. The LULC map modeled for 2040 predicts the built-up areas to expand by 8.25% and the agricultural areas to shrink by 5.42% by comparison with 2021. This study will contribute as a key measure for planners, policy-, and decision-makers to make decisions related to sustainable land use in the areas declared to be a tourism center.
An Analysis of the Changing Role of Istanbul as a Megacity in the World
(ISOCARP, 2019) Paköz, Muhammed Ziya; Baş, Ahmet; Eren, Fatih
Istanbul is a unique part of the world because of not only its history, but also its function as a bridge from the point of economic, social and cultural interrelations. There are many cities, which are settled near a water source; however, Istanbul is the only city that is settled between two continents and two seas. All these features create some opportunities and threats for the city in terms of hinterland relations and the spatial structure. This paper aims to find out the economic, social and cultural impact of globalization on the spatial structure and the hinterland relations of Istanbul while discussing the city’s contradictory positions as an edge of Europe and as a bridge between the East and the West. Within this scope, we made a multiscale analysis considering interregional and inter-urban relations and their socio-spatial imprints within the boundaries of the city. Firstly, we made a comparative analysis to understand the changing position of Istanbul in the world in the 21st century by using global and regional indexes. Secondly we examined the change in the hinterland relations of the city by investigating the flows of people, goods, services and ideas between other regions / cities and the city of Istanbul in time. Thirdly, we traced the spatial imprints of these flows and interactions within the city in terms of relocations and displacements. Our study shows the growing importance of the city not only as a part of Europe but also as a node and bridge for the globalized world while emphasising socio-cultural and socio-economic tensions within the city as a result of this process.

Şehir ve Bölge Planlama ile Kentsel Tasarım ilkeleri açısından yapılı çevrenin yol ağı düzeni, bağlantıları; arazi kullanım tipleri, kentsel servislerin erişilebilirlikleri, yeşil alanlar ve tipleri, konut yoğunluğu, yapılı çevredeki doluluk/boşluk oranları, bina yükseklikleri ile binalar arasındaki mesafe, yürüyüş yapılan alanların özellikleri (kaldırım, yaya yolları kalitesi, ağaç varlığı vb.) önemli olmaktadır. Halk sağlığı açısından değerlendirildiğinde ise fiziksel aktivite ve sosyal ilişkiler kapsamında beden kitle indeksi, ruh sağlığı ve iyi olma hali (well-being) ön plana çıkmaktadır. Ayrıca, sağlıklı kentsel yaşama erişim hakkı, kentsel hizmetlerden eşit şekilde faydalanabilme, kentsel yaşama toplum katılımının sağlanması, sağlıklı davranışın kentsel yapılı ve alt yapı çevresi ile desteklenmesi, sektörler arası ilişkilerin kentsel sağlık kapsamında ele alınması, bu çalışmada ön plana çıkan kentsel kamusal politika hedefleri olmalıdır. Bu bağlamda, Ankara ili merkez ilçelerini kapsayan yerleşik alanlarında yaşam çevrelerini oluşturan arazi kullanım çeşitliliği ve yoğunluğu, yeşil alan varlığı ve yoğunluğu, kentsel servislerin mekânsal dağılımı, yol ağlarının morfolojik ve topolojik özelliklerinin (bağlanabilirlik, yakınlık, aradalık) aktif yaşam ile ilişkili olarak beden kitle indeksini, ruh sağlığını ve refah seviyelerini nasıl etkilediği ilçe bazında tematik haritalar ile incelenmektedir. Böylece, Ankara ili merkez ilçeleri kapsamındaki mahallelerde hareketli yaşamı destekleyen nitelikler açısından benzerlik/farklılıkların neler olduğu konularında ilişkili olabilecek göstergelerin incelenerek kentsel gelişim ve halk sağlığı açısından kentlerdeki geçmiş/mevcut mekansal, sosyal, ekonomik, demografik ve erişilebilirlik özelliklerinin kent sağlığını belirlemede etkili olması konusu tartışılmış olacaktır. Sonuçta, Ankara özelinde Sağlıklı Kent ilkelerinin, yaşam çevresi (yapılı çevre ve altyapı) planlama ve tasarımının tartışılması ile halk sağlığı problemlerinin aşılması konusunda bir çerçeve yaklaşım ortaya konulmaktadır.
Applying a Morphological Approach Into Istanbul’s Urban Landscape
(Springer, 2022) Arat, Muzaffer Ali; Oliveira, Vitor
This paper proposes a methodology based on the concept of morphological region and the method of morphological regionalization. The concept has been proposed by M.R.G. Conzen in the early 1960s, and promoted by J.W.R. Whitehand and his colleagues at the University of Birmingham mainly from the late 1980s. A morphological region is an area that has unity in respect of its form that distinguishes it from surrounding areas, based on a combination of town-plan, building fabric, and land and building utilization (Conzen’s tripartite division of the urban landscape). The methodology is based on a set of criteria considering the tripartite division of the urban landscape. Age of streets, streets geometry, plot layout, and building coverage are four criteria offered on the basis of the town-plan. Architectural style, building material, and height are proposed on the basis of the building fabric. Finally, land and building utilization is used to design the methodology. The methodology is applied to the Fatih District, the historical core of Istanbul. A four-tier hierarchy of regions is identified. The map of first-order morphological regions can offer the basis to produce a map of planning zones—a key tool to guide urban landscape management. Lower order regions can support the formulation of regulations for each planning zone, framing the design of new forms, assuring a strong relationship with extant urban forms. These ideas, detailed in the paper, are of great relevance for spatial planning, particularly for Turkish planning, where regulations are very generic and do not acknowledge the specific character of each urban landscape.

Applying a Morphological Approach To Istanbul’s Urban Landscape [conference Object]
(2022) Oliveira, Vitor; Arat, Muzaffer Ali
Change of the physical, economic, social, and environmental aspects, have existed in each city’s life, from the formation of the first settlement to today’s city or metropolis. The twentieth century has been the turning point for the urban transformation of many cities. Istanbul is one of these cities. For more than 1500 years, Istanbul was the capital of three great empires, Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman. Over this period, the city has experienced a dramatic transformation in its historical urban landscape, particularly stemmed from wars, fires, and earthquakes. Over this process, the city has not been able to avoid the loss of a significant part of its built heritage. The historical core of the city, namely Fatih district, is the most prominent region that suffers from the interventions which are being maintained in the building fabric. Most of the traditional buildings were replaced with contemporary buildings, not considering their type, size, and height. While substantial changes were becoming in the street patterns, the plot system lost its shape, size and its arrangement in street blocks. The policies and decisions of agents and agencies responsible for change, particularly local planning authorities, initiators, architects, and builders have a great role in those changes. While new plans and design proposals are prepared for the city, in particular for the historical core of the city, they still lack an historical framework and a systematic understanding of urban form. In the Turkish planning system, urban regeneration projects many times contribute to the destruction of unique built heritage; reconstruction and rehabilitation projects tend to lack scientific support, and mainstream practice does not consider a consistent approach for maintaining the structural elements. Spatial planning should offer a more effective and protective framework for structural elements to be transferred to the future. This paper proposes a methodology based on the concept of morphological region and the method of morphological regionalzation to deal with these issues. The concept has been proposed by M.R.G. Conzen in the early 1960s, and promoted by J.W.R. Whitehand and his colleagues at the University of Birmingham mainly from the late 1980s. A morphological region is an area that has unity in respect of its form that distinguishes it from surrounding areas, based on a combination of town-plan, building fabric, and land and building utilization (Conzen’ s tripartite division of the urban landscape). The methodology is based on a set of criteria considering the tripartite division of the urban landscape.

The methodology is applied to the Fatih district, the historical core of Istanbul. A four-tier hierarchy of regions is identified. The map of first-order morphological regions can offer the basis to produce a map of planning zones - a key tool to guide urban landscape management. Lower order regions can support the formulation of regulations for each planning zone, framing the design of new forms, assuring a strong relationship with extant urban forms. These ideas, detailed in the paper, are of great relevance for spatial planning, particularly for Turkish planning, where regulations are very generic and do not acknowledge the specific character of each urban landscape.

Assessment of the State and Impact of Tourism Activities in Kenya
(2021) Gündüz, Elif; Agayi, Collins
Tourism plays a significant role in the economic development of Kenya. However, the development of the sector continues to face challenges arising, both locally and globally. This study identifies and analyses these problems and how they impact tourism activities. The study provides a brief overview of the role of international tourism by highlighting its socio-economic, environmental, and political contributions to the country's development. Also discussed are the sustainability issues around mass tourism and its effect on the environmental, social, economic, and cultural aspects of life in the host regions. The key to addressing the tourism sector's performance is the understanding of the significant role the market plays. Focusing on this, the study examines emerging issues in the Kenyan tourism sector i.e. seasonality, overreliance on the international market, impacts of tourism infrastructure development on space, among others, and their roles in shaping the tourism industry. It is established that overdependence on the international market exposes Kenyan tourism to global risks that could result in the collapse of the sector, thus negatively affecting the economy. To safeguard the Country from external risks, the study proposes strengthening domestic tourism by encouraging local investors' participation in international tourism. The study also identifies the main problems related to tourism activities in Kenya including; pollution, destruction of cultural heritage, the threat to the health of both human and aquatic life, human-wildlife conflicts, less economic benefits to local communities and host nations dues to dominance by transnational corporations, social ills like drug abuse, luring of young girls into sex resulting into early pregnancy and school drop-out among other problems. The findings of this research are based on a review of previously done research literature, academic documents, government reports, among other secondary and primary sources of data.
Assessment of Urban Development Pattern and Urban Sprawl Using Shannon’s Entropy: a Case Study of Konya (turkey)
(International Journal of Human Sciences, 2021) Serdaroğlu Sağ, Neslihan
Defined as the uncontrolled expansion of cities toward their periphery, urban sprawl emerges during urban developments where the urban area grows more than the population increase. Furthermore, land-related demands emerge for the needs regarding settlement and infrastructure due to certain reasons such as the increase in the urban population, industrialization and lifestyle changes. As these demands are met through irregular area use, cities expand toward their peripheral areas more than necessary. Moreover, natural resources and agricultural areas are damaged, infrastructure and transportation costs increase, urban functions get separated, and social and financial issues occur. The problem of urban sprawl is one of the major issues suffered by the global cities in the last decades. For Turkey where approximately 75% of the population live in cities, examining the urban developments and specifying the rate of urban sprawl is critical. This study aimed to assess the case study of urban development and sprawl in Konya (Turkey). It first examined the population and urban area in the urban plans guiding the urban development pattern. Then, the study analyzed the changes the built-up areas underwent for 35 years between 1985 and 2020. As method, satellite images and GIS were used. Moreover, the level of sprawl regarding the urban development in Konya was measured based on Shannon’s Entropy Index. Finally, this study found that Konya was suffering the issue of sprawl, and it emphasized the importance of studies for guiding the activities of urban development in a sustainable manner.
Audiovisual Perception of a Historical Route in Konya City (türkiye)
(2022) Badauod, Sarah; Topçu, Kadriye
To perceive our world, the city we live in, and communicate with the urban elements surrounding us, information from other sensory sources (such as auditory, touch, and smell) as well as visual perception are very important and deeply affecting data. With the help of all the sensory data they feel, people attach meanings to the space, feel a sense of belonging, connect to the space, and transform the space into a 'living space'. It is stated by many studies that this issue is very important in the design of a sustainable urban environment. From this point of view, the main purpose of this study is to understand the interaction of the visual and auditory characteristics of the urban space with each other and how these interactions are evaluated by the individuals using the space with inquiries such as ‘Is the visual value also high in areas with high soundscape value?’ or ‘Does the visuality of the urban environment affect sound quality assessments? Within the scope of the study, the axis between Konya High-Speed Train Station and Mevlana Tomb, an important axis in terms of the city’s vision, was selected as a sample area. This axis is about 3 km. long and has many historical identity values and central functions of Konya city. For the study, soundwalking and the questionnaire application method accompanying this walk on the sample axis were used. Acoustic characteristics of the axis were also understood with sound intensity measurements (dB levels). Photographs taken from the area and the questionnaire application to measure the user's perspective were used to understand the visual attractiveness of the sample axis. The study was carried out with a total of 92 people participating in the study. In the next step, the data obtained from all these analyses are integrated, and detailed evaluations were made on the determined parts and the whole axis. As a result of the study, it was seen that the relationship between the auditory and visual environment was not directly proportional across the selected sample axis. At this point, it can be said that the importance of the context in which the auditory landscape is perceived is obvious.
Biyomimikri ve Mekânsal Tasarımdaki Yeri
(Inonu University Journal of Art and Design, 2021) Fıstıkçı, Kübra Nur; Gündüz, Elif
İnsanlar kendi yaşam alanları için yapılı çevreler oluşturmaktadır. Geçmişten günümüze kadar, çeşitli uygarlıklara ev sahipliği yapan doğa bu yapılı çevreden zamanla olumsuz etkilenmeye başlamıştır. Bunun başlıca sebepleri sanayileşme, hızla artan nüfus, teknolojinin gelişmesiyle insanların doğayı kontrol edebileceğini düşüncesidir. Ancak bu olumsuz etkiler sadece doğayı değil insanların yaşamını da tehdit edici boyutlara ulaşmıştır. Bu noktadan hareketle sürdürülebilir, ekolojik tasarımlar gibi sadece doğa odaklı tasarım paradigmaları ortaya çıkmıştır. Tüm bu paradigmaların bir yenisi olarak biyomimikri, yani doğadan esinlenme bilimi de litaratüre kazandırılmıştır. Diğer anlayışlar gibi biyomimikri de, birçok disiplince kullanılabilirdir. Biyomimikri tasarım yöntemleri, mekânsal tasarımlardaki sorunlara, sürdürülebilirlik çerçevesi içerisinde çözümler sunabilmekte ve mekânsal tasarımların daha özgün olmasını sağlamaktadır. Bu çalışmada, biyomimikri yaklaşımının kuramsal gelişimi incelenerek kent planlama disiplini ile ilişkisi sorgulanmış, geleceğe yön verecek yeni kent planlama süreçlerinde sürdürülebilirliğe ilişkin nasıl katkılar koyabileceği tartışılmıştır.

Challenges To Urban Housing Policies Implementation Efforts: the Case of Nairobi, Kenya [article]
(2020) Agayi, Collins Ouma; Karakayacı, Özer
PurposeThe arrival of native African communities from rural Kenya looking for opportunities led to population growth. Nairobi, therefore, has rapidly urbanized and sprawled 18 km2, and 688 km2 in 1900, and 1963 respectively. With population growth, housing demand has surpassed supply resulting in the housing crisis. The aim of this paper is to a) examine the policy and legal efforts put forward to address the housing problem in Nairobi, b) discuss the challenges to the urban housing policies implementation efforts, and c) make suggestions based on the findings of social, economic and infrastructural impacts of the intervention measures. Design/Methodology/ApproachThe research establishes that government efforts to address the housing problem through measures like urban migration restriction, employer housing, housing schemes, slum demolitions, and slum upgrading have not been successful due to challenges of land security tenure, gaps in policy enforcement, and compliance, insufficient public participation among others. FindingsThe paper makes appropriate suggestions to reform the policy approaches by focusing not only on housing aspects but economic, and land tenure reforms, and the extent of public involvement.Research Limitations/Implications The study analyses secondary sources including research articles, theses, and governments whose data were collected through primary methods like interviews, field observation, and administration of questionnaires. It, therefore, limited the findings in case of Nairobi.Practical Implications The study contributes to recommend that provision of the basic services be carried out in the slums alongside and economic empowerment programs to relieve the residents of financial poverty. Slum upgrading programs should therefore seek to impact the socio-economic lives of the slum dwellers. Originality/Value This study explores past and present efforts by different regimes and non-governmental organizations to give an answer to the housing crisis in Kenya. and the subsequent development of slums and informal settlements.
Challenges To Urban Housing Policies Implementation Efforts: the Case of Nairobi, Kenya [conference Object]
(Konya Technical University Faculty of Architecture and Design, 2020) Agayı, Collins Ouma; Karakayacı, Özer
Nairobi, the capital city of Kenya has experienced rapid population growth since the arrival of Kenya-Uganda Railway in 1899. The central location of Nairobi on the railway route between Uganda and Malindi and its subsequent naming as the capital of Kenya in 1907, led to the settlement of the British and the Indian railway construction workers around Nairobi. The arrival of Africans from rural parts of Kenya to Nairobi looking for opportunities further led to population growth in Nairobi. Nairobi city, therefore, has rapidly urbanized with its boundary expanding from 18 km2 to 25 km2 and 688 km2 in 1900, 1920 and 1963 respectively. Population growth has caused the demand for housing to surpass the supply thus causing a housing crisis in the city. The housing demand is particularly a problem for the middle and low-income groups who have a 95% housing deficit. The high-income group, on the other hand, has a surplus of 60%. The housing crisis in Nairobi, therefore, manifests itself in the form of many slums and informal settlements emerging in and around the city. For instance, Kibera in Nairobi is Africa’s biggest slum and one of the world’s biggest. At least 60% of Nairobi residents live in the slum and informal settlements which make up only 5% of the total residential land of Nairobi. This paper examines the formation process of informal settlements in Nairobi before and after independence. This research also seeks to determine the policy and legal efforts put forward to address the housing problem in Nairobi before and after independence. Finally, the research seeks to establish the social, economic and spatial impacts of the intervention measurers applied to address the housing crisis in Nairobi. To understand the historical context of the informal settlements and slums formation in Nairobi, the research relies on secondary materials and historical data like academic journals, post-graduate theses, conference papers, government, and institutional research reports. The research then examines the policy and legal documents containing interventions by the government to address the housing crisis. The research establishes that despite efforts by the government to address the housing problem, housing problems persist with many more slums forming. This is attributed to high-interest rates, lack of citizen participation, the duplicity of policies, lack of land-tenure security among other reasons.
Coğrafi İşaretler ve Kırsal Kalkınma Bağlamında Turizm: Aydın Örneği
(Karabük Üniversitesi Yayınları, 2021) Aydın, Cansel; Gündüz, Elif
In the last fifty years, as socio-economic and technological developments have started to progress in the world, significant changes have started to occur in the perception of tourism. Rural tourism also draws attention as a type of tourism that has become widespread in the world. In the recent pandemic process, people's orientation towards rural areas has accelerated this trend. The desire to get away from busy and crowded places has made rural areas important points of attraction. Rural areas attract attention with their cultural and traditional values instead of sea, sand, sun tourism. This cultural and traditional lifestyle, which develops depending on the diversity of rural agricultural production, adds originality to many areas of life, from clothing to eating and drinking. Local product potentials support regional and rural development. Products with geographical indication registration have a great role in branding, strengthening the image of the region and strengthening regional tourism. In this context, the use of geographical indications in tourism is an important tool for rural development. The reputation and quality of the products registered with geographical indications arouses curiosity about their production methods and culture, and contributes to the revival of tourism by attracting consumers to the region. Thus, tourism in the regional / local area is supported and economic advantages are provided to the region. Rural development that has been correctly designed within a holistic planning approach; It is possible with the proper and correct use of tools such as tourism. Our country has an extremely wide range of local products. Aydın province is one of the provinces with high tourism potential, which has hosted many different civilizations and allows different tourism activities with its rural and coastal areas. However, it cannot provide the expected and sufficient return from tourism. In this study, the concepts related to rural areas, geographical indications and tourism were defined and their relationship with development was tried to be revealed from the perspective of planning. In this direction, a literature review was made by using various written sources such as thesis, article, book, etc. related to the subject and the field. Besides the literature review; It contributed to the study by conducting on-site detection studies for the rural area of Aydın province, oral interviews with the local people and interviews with the relevant public institutions.. Within the scope of the data obtained after the research, various suggestions and strategies have been developed regarding the use of geographical indications in rural development-oriented tourism planning.
Competences in the Planning Process of Protected Areas: the Case of the Kubad-Abad Palace
(Konya Technical University Faculty of Architecture and Design, 2020) Kartal, Mürsel; Eren, Fatih
This study aims to explore issues that will increase the effectiveness and efficiency of the planning process in order to examine the problems encountered in spatial planning studies carried out in protected areas within the scope of Kubad-Abad Palace Protection Plan. The study targets to improve the planning process of protected areas in every sense and to reduce the conflict of authority between different institutions. The jurisdictional confusion experienced in Conservation Development Plans is a subject that is rarely discussed in the urban studies literature. The study is expected to fill this gap in the literature to a certain extent. In the research, literature review, document analysis, case study and in- depth interview methods were used together. Kubad-Abad Palace in the Beyşehir District of Konya Province has been selected as the case area. Kubad-Abad Palace has 5 different conservation status: I.Degree Archeolo- gical Site, III. Degree Archeological Site, Sustainable Conservation and Controlled Use Area, Qualified Natural Conservation Area and Beyşehir Lake National Park. Therefore, the case area has the feature of “overlapping restricted area”. Physical structure analyzes and various specific analyzes were conducted for the selected case area. A detailed process analysis was made on which institutions contributed to the conservation plan studies regarding the Kubad-Abad Palace and in what manner. Excavation and Research Studies, Documentation and Storage Arrangement Studies, Restoration and Conservation Studies, Tourism Studies and the process of these studies were evaluated in detail. The study revealed that too many institutions were involved in the planning process of the Kubad-Abad Palace, and many authority conflicts emerged among many institutions that had to work together. The emergence of conflicts of authority between institutions arises from the existence of provisions and uncertainties that cause controversy in protection laws and regulations. Dissemination of decision-making authority on protected areas among too many institutions complicates, slows down, extends the planning process and weakens the success of the resulting plan. Simplification should be made in the number of institutions that plan, supervise, approve and implement the plan in overlapping protected areas. New legal and institutional arrangements are needed to ensure coordination between competent institutions in protected areas and to eliminate overlapping roles and powers.

The Concept of the Morphological Region: Developments and Prospects
(Urban Morphology, 2020) Oliveira, Vítor; Yaygın, Muzaffer Ali
Over recent decades, the historico-geographical approach has been established as one of the main morphological frameworks to describe, explain, and prescribe the physical form of cities and to understand how this form is continuously shaped by different agents and processes over time. Within this approach the concept of morphological region – and the method of morphological regionalization – stands as one of the most important in recognizing the historico-geographical structure of the urban landscape. While the relevance of the concept has been demonstrated in a number of applications in different geographical and cultural settings, this paper identifies and addresses some major challenges that the concept has been facing. In particular, it argues for a stronger linkage between each regionalization and the historico-geographical body of knowledge, for clearer usage of language and terminology in each application to facilitate the shared construction of a more robust method, and for a more explicit and systematic definition of procedural options and steps.
Correlation of Neighborhood Unit Design With Urban Health
(Konya Technical University Faculty of Architecture and Design, 2020) Şimşekoğlu, Vesile; Özüduru, Burcu H.
With the urbanization process, that gained speed after the Industrial Revolution, urban settlements received intense migration, thus living conditions in cities became more difficult. The fact that the urbanization process cannot develop in a controlled manner and the pressure created by the population in the city has led to the formation of unhealthy living environments and problems that threaten the health of the city. Health is complete well-being of physicallity, mentality and society. Therefore, health is highly associated with environmental factors as well as genetic and individual factors. Urban health is the product of many factors that can affect health, such as living conditions and economic factors, social services and sociocultural environment, built environment, quality of infrastructure services and their accessibility. The environment built from these factors has a direct impact on the health and on the life of individuals, but it is also an important determinant of urban health. The fact that the built environment is a determinant of urban health shows that the city planning discipline can play an active role in improving urban health. Because urban planning manages the formation of living environment features, which is one of the factors affecting urban health. The purpose of this study is to assess the impacts of the problems arising from the urbanization process on urban health in Turkey and to reveal the relationship of urban health with neighborhood unit design and the built environment in the light of literature. For this purpose, this study examines the existing relational solutions and multidimensional theoretical approaches by analyzing the relationship between urban health and the built environment with a comprehensive literature review. Increasing the welfare of people and the entire ecosystem and designing high-quality environments by creating healthy urban living environments in a rapidly urbanizing world should be among the main goals. The realization of these objectives will be achieved through exploration of the urban health’s relation with built environment and neighborhood urban design also through awareness of the integration of the urban health with urban planning policies and urban design principles.
