Lead by examples of best planning and development practices
Future urban planning is above and beyond luxury as planning frameworks of developed economies emphasize on the essence of sustainability.
Target Sustainability
for a better future
Countries, organizations and individuals are constantly seeking methods of achieving their development needs. With the increasing threat of global catastrophic risks related to technological, sociological, ecological and biological advancements, various planning and development authorities are incorporating sustainability aspects in their frameworks, master plans and guidelines.
For reference, ‘sustainability’ as defined by the UN Brundtland Commission in 1987 is:
“Meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.”
A sustainable approach towards the ‘built environment’ for achieving high quality life requires innovative and sustainable practices in terms of planning and development. Although few advanced economies already emphasize on sustainable approach, only proficient developers are able to integrate such practices in entirety. Evidently, style of developers is contrasting in developing economies since the focus is primarily on meeting client’s expectations which results in targeting immediate profitability and ultimate recognition.
An example of a unified approach that substantially emphasizes on sustainability and consolidates UN’s Sustainable Development Goals can be observed in United Kingdom’s latest National Planning Policy Framework. Simultaneously, the UN Global Compact and RICS internationally encourage developers to adopt sustainable and socially responsible policies, and to report their implementation.
