Habitat International is dedicated to the study of urban and rural human settlements: their planning,
design, production and management. Its main focus is on urbanisation in its broadest sense in the developing world. However, increasingly
the interrelationships and linkages between cities and towns in the developing and developed worlds are becoming apparent and solutions
to the problems that result are urgently required. The economic, social, technological and political systems of the world are intertwined
and changes in one region almost always affect other regions. Habitat International welcomes reports of research on urban issues
such as policy and implementation, the links between planning, building and land, finance and management, urban design, the interaction
between the natural environment and urban areas the provision of urban services and other related problems. Papers on topics which clearly
have broad implications and interrelationships based on the experiences of the developing or developed world will be considered. Submissions
exploring these issues within the development context are particularly welcomed. Quality papers, short communications, comments on published
papers and reports on relevant conferences from all parts of the world are presented as it is recognised that such urban problems arise
everywhere. Hopefully, Habitat International will contribute to their solution.
