Urban Policy and Planning

Urban Policy and Planning involves the strategies and decisions made by governments and organizations to manage and develop cities. It focuses on improving living conditions, promoting sustainability, and addressing social issues such as housing, transportation, and public services. In the context of Urban Social Geography, it examines how spatial layouts affect social interactions, economic opportunities, and community dynamics. Essentially, it’s about creating environments where people can thrive, ensuring equitable access to resources, and considering the diverse needs of urban populations.
