Description

From the editorial by Ramin Keivani :
 
The International Journal of Urban Sustainability (IJUSD) aims to provide a forum for cutting edge research and rigorous debate for understanding of the complex inter-related environmental, social, economic, political, spatial, institutional and physical challenges facing towns and cities. Its premise is that multi-disciplinary approaches provide the space for the range of perspectives related to the full breadth of issues that affect urban sustainable development.
 
The journal also aims to enhance knowledge and understanding of the interactions between urbanisation processes and patterns and environmental changes at the local, regional, and global scales. It seeks to connect theory and practice in ways that are useful to academics, policy makers, community activists and professionals who are concerned with or engaged in building and governing cities in ways that enhance environmental viability and foster urban equity and well being and engender economic vibrancy and political accountability.
