Land, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 14(2), С. 382 - 382

Опубликована: Фев. 12, 2025

Cities, particularly megacities, face significant challenges in transitioning toward sustainability. Many countries have developed dual or multiple capitals for diverse purposes (e.g., political, administrative, economic, touristic, and cultural). Limited research exists on the ‘15-minute city’ (15-MC) concept, regions like Middle East North Africa (MENA region). This study evaluates application of ‘15-MC’ concept globally regionally to derive Urban Planning Principles (UPPs) indicators livability accessibility. Using a theoretical framework supported by site visits quantitative assessments, examines two districts NAC as case studies. Key UPPs proximity services, mixed-use development, public transport, green spaces, community engagement, local economy, sustainability) were evaluated along with walkability scores, bike infrastructure, environmental impact indicators. The results reveal that most services are accessible within 15-minute walk ride. However, essential facilities universities hospitals) exceed this threshold (20–30 min). area per inhabitant (17 m2/capita) meets WHO European recommendations. has clean, transportation 94.26 km cycling lanes.

This paper delves into the rapidly progressing 15-Minute City concept, an innovative urban planning model that envisions a city where residents can access essential services and amenities within 15-min walk or bike ride from their homes. Endorsed by UN-Habitat as critical strategy for sustainable regeneration, this concept has gained considerable worldwide recognition since its introduction in 2016. The framework aims to enhance accessibility, sustainability, social cohesion emphasizing mixed-use development, compact design, efficient transportation systems. Nevertheless, swift expansion of surpassed production academic literature on topic, leading knowledge gap calls alternative research methodologies. To address gap, our adopts mixed-method approach, systematically analyzing scholarly literature, gray media articles, policy documents offer holistic understanding real-world application, primary principles embraced policymakers. By investigating various manifestations potential advantages, challenges, implications policy, contributes ongoing conversation development planning. Through study, we aim inform policymakers, planners, researchers about current state movement possible future trajectory.
