The discourse on habitat and human settlements is increasingly dominated by that of the global, mega-city. If the aim of those of us in the human settlements field are to improve our understanding of and action on habitat and human settlements, this, often exclusive, focus is a mistake. Our habitat is better understood and acted upon as a network of interwoven settlements and surrounding countryside, large and small, themselves interwoven within our larger ecosystem. In this network the habitat of our smaller settlements (smaller cities, towns, villages) and rural areas and our global village also plays a critical role. The assumption can be challenged that urbanization and the mega-city are the critical issues of habitat and human settlements. Evidence suggests that with some rurbanization there is also counter urbanization, the ruralization of cities, and, perhaps most important, a growing urbanization as city-country interactions intensify. Habitat for all and habitat for a healthy, sustainable planet demands our openness to these new concepts and realities. It demands an integrated, balanced, approach which helps a wide range of living settlement nodes, large and small, to nurture each other. Global City and Global Village must go hand in hand. Our planetary and human health depends on it. 相似文献

This paper demonstrates how the design of standards, pricing and finance must be integrated if affordable housing is to be achieved in a sustainable and replicable way. The paper does this by identifying basic principles in achieving affordability and applying these principles through a simple, computer-based integrated-design model to a ‘model’ housing project in Pakistan. In most instances, where there is not a development grant or forgivable loan, affordability must be combined with cost-recovery if projects are to be sustainable and replicable. Keys to such projects are the use of market prices, incremental construction using sweat equity, efficient and affordable standards, differential pricing, and financing using market interest rates but with affordable down payments and repayment rates. The paper demonstrates that the ‘model’ project in Pakistan, as designed, is not affordable. Through examining several alternative designs using different land-use standards, pricing and financing systems, the paper shows what needs to be done to make such projects affordable. In doing so, it illustrates how affordability, standards, pricing, finance, and cost-recovery can be integrated in the design process. While applied to Pakistan, the relevance to Canada of this integrated-interactive design process is explored. 相似文献
