| Abstract | This introduction presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. Section seven of the book identifies how urban design approaches – formal and informal – impact upon the built environment and make it more sustainable and resilient, as well as promoting the mitigation of and adaptation to the effects of climate change. It explores a landscape-led approach to planning based on the integration of the constructed and natural systems of cities. The book then examines how urban greening initiatives can mitigate increasing temperatures and improve the environmental, health, and well-being of a specific place and community in Western Sydney, Australia. It also discusses how Post-Occupancy Evaluation, based on both quantitative and qualitative assessments, can be important tools to support urban developments’ directions for the achievement of environmental sustainability goals. The book focuses on social sustainability, assessing it through the residents’ perspectives. © 2022 selection and editorial matter, Yizhao Yang and Anne Taufen; individual chapters, the contributors. |
