1. About Housing and Urban Development

    Urban, city, or town planning is the discipline of land use planning which explores a very wide range of aspects of the built and social environments of urbanised municipalities and communities. Other professions deal in more detail with a smaller scale of development, namely architecture, landscape architecture and urban design. Regional planning deals with a still larger environment, at a less detailed level.

    Another key role of urban planning is urban renewal, and re-generation of inner cities by adapting urban planning methods to existing cities suffering from long-term infrastructural decay.
