Trends Analysis in Sustainable Urban Planning

Abstract

This paper analyzes some of the recent changes with sustainable urban planning as a tool for the development of urban areas aimed to improve their economic growth, social development, and inclusiveness, and to make more environmentally friendly and safer cities. Sustainable urban planning is moving away from traditional practices towards more collaborative and participatory approaches supported by considerations of the waste management, the new methods, policies, and strategies leading to governance. Limitations that the new models of sustainable urban planning are facing are also considered.
