This article aims to position postsocialist cities in Central and Eastern Europe the broader debate on urban environmental justice. The crosscuts through all three dimensions of justice (distributive/distributional, procedural/participatory, interactional/recognition) context green blue space provision. Environmental is still an emerging topic cities, constrained by market-orientation neoliberal trends within society, privatization, primacy private interests. respective situation provides...
Researchers and planners worldwide have emphasized the need for a better planning in an urbanizing world. The expansion of urbanized areas has increased people's access to modern facilities urban infrastructures but decreased quality life due social imbalances characterizing large cities. landscape can be used as indicator high or low levels. Our study proposesed assessment using Urban Landscape Quality Index (ULQI) mapping within city. methodology calculating ULQI was based on expert items...
Urbanization and ageing are the two main processes currently shaping social environment worldwide. In this context, creating senior friendly cities should be an important target, especially in developed countries, which have highest rates of population over 60 years old. Our study focuses on use urban parks aims to analyze how their planning, design, for elderly people. We used field observation carried out four case Bucharest (Romania) assess spatial planning design parks, identify...
The uncontrolled development of built-up areas determines the inclusion peripheral and ex-urban land uses inside settlements. In present study, we investigated geographic differences in rate conversion to cemetery areas, considered as from Bucharest Metropolitan Area. Using geospatial data about cemeteries their adjacent uses, evaluated spatial changes at LAU2 (Local Administrative Units level 2) (i.e. municipalities, cities, communes). Between 1975 2008, observed an increase number with a...
The mission of the Natura 2000 network focuses on humans-nature relationships, recognizing that human activities are part ecosystem and they should not rival with nature. However, implementation has triggered situations where interests came into conflict those plants animals or different political social underlyings undermine its effective implementation. Therefore, we propose an ACR framework (anticipation-characterization-resolution) to select a set indicators which can be used assess...
The educational institutions represent the main components of sustainability promotion in our society. Waste management is one challenges that have to face accomplishing goals. In Bucharest, 457 (pre-schools, primary and secondary schools, high special schools) were analyzed using questionnaires. Questionnaires included items related with waste inside institutions: quantities, collection system characteristics (schedule, selective presence, temporary depositing place), responsible for...
The importance of small urban green areas has increased in the context rapid urbanization and densification tissue. analysis these through remote sensing been limited due to low spatial resolution freely available satellite images. We propose a timeseries on 3 m Planet images, using GEOBIA vegetation indices, with aim extracting assessing quality two different climatic biogeographical regions: temperate (Bucharest, Romania) mediterranean (Athens, Greece). Our results have shown high accuracy...
Living close to green infrastructure (GI) components might be the dream of many people who are often exposed cities’ pollution, congestion, or lack amenities. Due its multiple benefits, plays a significant role in driving people’s decisions leave inner-city areas and move suburban locations. However, how GI used once into suburbs must better understood. Thus, this study explores residents’ rationales for leaving inner city moving they use components. A survey was undertaken six from three...
