What is good urban planning?

Good urban planning is the development of a well-managed, efficient and livable city. It involves the management of resources, physical infrastructure and services, as well as an emphasis on developing sustainable and equitable policies and initiatives which promote a healthy environment, social diversity and economic development.

Good urban planning considers both short-term and long-term goals, and works to create a balance between them while striving to improve the quality of life in urban areas through strategic decisions. It also involves understanding the needs and preferences of the local population in order to ensure that their needs are met and their rights are respected.
