UN-Habitat has worked for decades to bring spatial and long-term planning into post-crisis scenarios. ‘Urban Planning Responses in Post-Crisis Contexts’ highlights strategies and lessons from UN-Habitat’s Urban Planning and Design Lab during the period of UN-Habitat’s 2014- 2019 Strategic Plan. It endeavours to guide practitioners and to increase understanding between the humanitarian and urban planning communities, and discusses the role that urban planning plays in developing holistic post-crisis responses. 

The publication outlines the ten different strategies that the Lab has developed to provide effective planning support and tools: (1) putting special emphasis on the planning process; (2) using urban planning as a coordinating tool among actors; (3) quickly structuring an orderly settlement of land for effective service delivery and management; (4) setting the area on a trajectory of long-term sustainability; (5) using a principles-based approach; (6) including and consulting to foster social cohesion and ownership; (7) planning within the larger geography; (8) connecting and aligning with the local government perspective and role; (9) identifying and guiding investments strategically; and (10) creating the plan as a management tool for actors and local governments. It further explores the three typologies of support that the Lab has found to be the most useful in post-crisis contexts: (A) supporting settlement profiling; (B) supporting participatory decision-making; and (C) supporting institutional capacity building.

While each post-crisis response must be carefully tailored to the specific context, and sweeping recommendations cannot be applied across the board, these strategies and support areas are explored in this publication to provide guidance and support to practitioners. The appendices include four detailed case studies that illustrate the applicability of these points in various contexts: Appendix A: Canaan, Haiti; Appendix B: Mogadishu, Bossaso, and Gabiley, Somalia; Appendix C: Kalobeyei, Kenya; and Appendix D: Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh. Appendix E provides further background on the relevant global frameworks and evolving perspectives related to the humanitarian-development nexus and the UN perspective, and Appendix F provides background information on urban planning at UN-Habitat and its Urban Planning and Design Lab. 

规划的地位至关重要。全球城镇化正在迅速推 进，到2050年，每十个人中将有七个人居住在 城市。规划政策、方案和设计不当导致了人群 和活动空间分布的不合理，贫民窟蔓延，交通 拥堵，穷人难以享受基本公共服务，自然环境 恶化，社会不公和隔离。

Невозможно переоценить важность планирования. Урбанизация приняла стремительный характер, и к 2050 году каждый седьмой человек будет жить в городе. Неправильные политика, планирование и дизайн приводят к нерациональному пространственному распределению людей и деятельности, что оборачивается распространением трущоб, перенаселенностью, плохим доступом к базовым услугам, ухудшением состояния окружающей среды, социальным неравенством и сегрегацией.

都市化において、計画は何をおいても必要なも のです。急激な都市化により、2050 年には10 人中7 人が都市居住者となると言われています。 誤った政策、計画、デザインにより、人と様々 な活動が都市空間の中で適切に配置されず、そ の結果、スラムの拡大、人口過密、基本的サー ビスの欠如、環境破壊、そして社会的格差や人 種的分離という問題が生じています。 「都市と国土計画に係る国際ガイドライン」は、 都市と国土計画の体制を検討するにあたって、 意思決定者や都市専門家にインスピレーション を与え、方向を示す羅針盤となります。本ガイ ドラインは、政府、地方自治体、市民団体、そ して都市計画の専門家に、コンパクトで社会的 包摂性に富み、持続的、統合的で接続性に優れ た都市を建設するための国際的な参考枠組みを 提供するものです。それにより、持続可能で気 候変動にレジリエンスのある都市の開発を促進 します。

Nunca enfatizaremos o suficiente a importância imprescindível do planejamento. A urbanização está progredindo com rapidez e, até 2050, sete de cada dez pessoas estarão morando em cidades. Políticas, planos e desenhos inapropriados levaram a uma distribuição espacial inadequada de pessoas e atividades inadequada, resultando na proliferação de favelas, congestionamentos, acesso limitado a serviços básicos, degradação ambiental, inequidade social e segregação.

As Diretrizes Internacionais para Planejamento Urbano e Territorial incluem doze princípios fundamentais e uma série de recomendações orientadas para a ação, baseadas em fortes evidências, práticas inspiradoras e lições aprendidas de várias regiões e contextos. As Diretrizes enfatizam a necessidade de uma abordagem integrada para o planejamento e abrange áreas de política e governança urbana, desenvolvimento urbano sustentável, elementos de planejamento e mecanismos de implementação e monitoramento.

روند شهرنشینی بسیار سریع است و تا سال 2050 میالدی، از هر ده نفر، هفت نفر در شهرها زندگی خواهند کرد. بر این اساس تاکید بر ضرورت برنامهریزی امری اجتناب ناپذیر است. سیاستها، برنامه ها و طرح های نامناسب، به توزیع فضایی نامطلوب مردم و فعالیتهای آنها منجر شده و در نتیجه گسترش محلههای فقیرنشین، تراکم نامناسب، دسترسی ضعیف به خدمات پایهای، تخریب محیط زیست، و نابرابری اجتماعی و تبعیض را در پی خواهد داشت. راهنمای بین المللی برنامهریزی شهری و سرزمینی هم به عنوان یک منبع الهام بخش و همچون یک قطب نما، مسیر را در هنگام بررسی سازوکارهای برنامهریزی شهری و منطقهای، برای تصمیمگیران و شهرسازان روشن میکند. این راهنما با ارائة یک چارچوب مرجع جهانی به دولتها و مقامات محلی، سازمانهای جامعه مدنی و برنامهریزان حرفهای از طریق ترویج شهرها و سرزمینهای متراکم تر، از نظر اجتماعی فراگیر تر، یکپارچه تر و متصلتر، زمینة توسعه پایدار شهری و تابآوری در برابر تغییر اقلیمی را فراهم میآورد.

Dengan penduduk perkotaan dunia telah melampaui ambang batas lima puluh persen dari penduduk global, telah menjadi semakin jelas bahwa kehidupan urban menjadi masa depan. Urbanisasi maju pesat, khususnya di negara-negara berkembang, dan diikuti dengan berbagai peluang dan tantangan.Aglomerasi memungkinkan adanya skala ekonomi yang signifikan untuk kota dan daerah, tetapi juga menimbulkan berbagai biaya dan eksternalitas yang terkait dengan kebisingan, kemacetan, dan polusi. Tantangan global seperti perubahan iklim dan terkurasnya sumber daya mempengaruhi banyak bidang dalam berbagai cara dan membutuhkan respons-respons baru yang inovatif.

The need for planning cannot be over-emphasized. Urbanization is progressing rapidly and by 2050, seven out of ten people will be living in cities. Inappropriate policies, plans and designs have led to inadequate spatial distribution of people and activities, resulting in proliferation of slums, congestion, poor access to basic services, environmental degradation, and social inequity and segregation.

The International Guidelines on Urban and Territorial Planning serve both as a source of inspiration and a compass for decision makers and urban professionals when reviewing urban and territorial planning systems. The Guidelines provide national governments, local authorities, civil society organizations and planning professionals with a global reference framework that promotes more compact, socially inclusive, better integrated and connected cities and territories that foster sustainable urban development and are resilient to climate change.

A practical guide to conducting comprehensive national housing profiles with a direct objective of understanding the housing sector, while offering evidence-based data to inform policy reform. The housing profile process also aims to be highly participatory and engage multi-stakeholder groups that influence and are influenced by the housing sector.

This is a guide that has global relevance to a world that is rapidly urbanizing and where populations growth continues to create unprecedented housing demand, particularly in developing countries.
