Abstract

The concept of sustainable liveable communities has gained significant traction globally. As the urban population continues to grow, the need for integrated approaches that encompass urban design, planning, construction and infrastructure is becoming increasingly urgent. This special issue of the Journal of Construction in Developing Countries (JCDC) titled “Sustainable Liveable Communities: Synergies between Urban Design, Planning, Construction and Infrastructure” aims to explore these vital intersections and provide a comprehensive understanding of how these elements can be harmonised to create sustainable, resilient and liveable urban environments.
