Abstract

In many ways international circulation of urban policies is indispensable to the spread of planning regimes. Contemporary cities in the Global South are sensitive to global, local, relational and territorial geographies, flows and fixity and the increasingly diverse stakeholders. The gradual integration of major international references associated with sustainable urbanism into local interventions combining social, economic and environmental prevention exemplifies the pervasiveness of global approaches. On the other hand, the production of cities is seasoned by the complex state-society relations as the planning practice struggles to respond to the hegemonic urban planning that are time, scale and geographically specific.  Building on this background, this paper revisits the notion of the New Urban Agenda within the international circulation of urban policies, practices and models from the standpoint of cities in the Global South. It examines the push and pull in the global process for the inclusion of initiatives that respond to the needs of Southern cities. This paper sets to explore the New Urban Agenda within the current borrowing, adaptation and hybridization of planning practices and how it can contribute to the debate of localizing the Agenda towards humane urban policies fitting to the needs of the people. This paper identifies impediments to the attainment of the New Urban Agenda as it is circulated, sets to be adapted and taken up, and mutates. This paper contributes to two conversations within planning academics on the implication of the New Urban Agenda: to the international circulation of urban policies and the making of contemporary cities in the Global South and to the struggle facing cities towards a humane urbanism.

Abstract

HABITAT III is designed to set “a New Urban Agenda‟ for the 21st Century”. However, how that agenda is „metricated‟ will be paramount for it to have the reach and impact that it seeks. The common approach is to set a series of goals or targets to which Nations feel comfortable but it is often left as „interpretive‟ as to whether projects and programs succeeded in reality. The assumption is that there is no metrication that can cross between different programs, different cultures, different locations and different politically contexts. It is problematic. This paper looks at recent work from Fiji following cyclone Winston that underlines this problematic nature while also suggesting a way to address it. That suggestion is to use a Quality of Life metric and that Agendas like the New Urban need to carefully and deliberately incorporate such a metric so that the outcomes across the framework can be ascertained and readily compared for progress to be achieved.

Abstract

World population entered the first two decades of the XXI Century did not meet the grand expectation of a prosperous and just world as poverty and all it’s consequences are still widely visible in fast growing cities. As the more people are now living in urban areas, in towns and cities, obviously their future depend on the social justice, healthy economic growth and quality environment. In the Habitat III meeting in Quito Ecuador (10-2016), they endorsed and agreed on a new agenda for meeting the challenges faced by the world in term of (urban) place where people can actualised themselves in meeting the new opportunities and changes offered in the course of time. The result of this research is that Indonesia needs to further adopt and adapt the New Urban Agenda  to meet the unique need and situation of Indonesia in the future which  can only be done by native experts (Indonesia) as experience and interest should rest on the shoulder of Indonesian.

Abstract

This study is about night ventilation in dry climates often related to thermal mass. All the opening closed during daytime, to provide lower indoor temperature. According to bioclimatic context, Surabaya as warm humid reference, air movement is needed to restore humidity for all the time. This research concerned in promoting air movement, in order to maintain thermal comfort during night time. Opening schedule is proposed as factor which contributes the function of night ventilation in warm humid climate. Simulations were performed in steady state conditions, used models based on expanded-type 60 houses of grid pattern housing estates in Surabaya. 2 model site plan used as case studies. Air movement in bed room and living room has been investigated to maintain thermal comfort. Results show that night time ventilation in warm humid climate is accomplished by outdoor and indoor space configurations. The windows and door are proposed to open at 5.00 p.m. to 6.00 a.m. For supporting night time ventilation in warm humid, the outdoor space configurations are determined by building coverage ratio of 50-60%, 0.7 H/W at backside of building for wind paralell to the street or 1.3 H/W for wind perpendicular to the street. Occupants could expand thermal comfort zone with air flow of 0.4-0.8 m/sec for wind parralel to the street and 0.4-0.55 for wind perpendicular to the street.

Abstract

The paper uses the “New Urban Agenda” and the “Age-friendly Cities” as research framework, to investigate housing for island-based older people living in one developing area of China. The results identify that local older residents are facing: difficulties in getting modifications and maintenance because of the younger generations’ migration and local industrial development, poor affordability of care home living, as well as poor transport links that prevent access to housing services. These issues are caused by the “urban-rural linkages” as well as “urbanization”, which are important points in the “New Urban Agenda”.Based on the findings, the author argues that future actions need to be done to make the implementation of the “New Urban Agenda” more age-friendly.
