This report reviews the experience of local development policies in three major European cities: Glasgow (Scotland), Dublin (Ireland) and Duisburg (Germany). These cities offer substantial practical experience of different kinds. The report considers the following important issues and questions that surround the phenomenon of local development: what are the benefits of decentralising authority and resources to local partnership; do these institutions need formal powers and dedicated to be effective; how do they relate to the statutory partners at city, regional and national levels; which institutional structures cope best with the conflicting demands on them for inclusive processes, innovative policies, integrated services and efficient procedures.

Building on a growing movement within developing countries in Latin America, Africa, and Asia-Pacific, as well as Europe and North America, this book documents cutting edge practice and builds theory around a rights based approach to women's safety in the context of poverty reduction and social inclusion. Drawing upon two decades of research and grassroots action on safer cities for women and everyone, this book is about the right to an inclusive city. The first part of the book describes the challenges that women face regarding access to essential services, housing security, liveability and mobility. The second part of the book critically examines programs, projects and ideas that are working to make cities safer. Building Inclusive Cities takes a cross-cultural learning perspective from action research occurring throughout the world and translates this research into theoretical conceptualizations to inform the literature on planning and urban management in both developing and developed countries. This book is intended to inspire both thought and action.

This Open Access book is an anthropological urban study of the Emirate of Dubai, its institutions, and their evolution. It provides a contemporary history of disability in city planning from a non-Western perspective and explores the cultural context for its positioning. Three insights inform the author’s approach. First, disability research, much like other urban or social issues, must be situated in a particular place. Second, access and inclusion forms a key part of both local and global planning issues. Third, a 21st century planning education should take access and inclusion into consideration by applying a disability lens to the empirical, methodological, and theoretical advances of the field. By bridging theory and practice, this book provides new insights on inclusive city planning and comparative urban theory. This book should be read as part of a larger struggle to define and assert access; it’s a story of how equity and justice are central themes in building the cities of the future and of today.

This book provides a conceptual framework for understanding the inclusive city. It clarifies the concept, dimensions and tensions of social and economic inclusion and outlines different forms of exclusion to which inclusion may be an antidote. The authors argue that as inclusion involves a range of inter-group and intragroup tensions, the unifying role of local government is crucial in making inclusion a reality for all, as is also the adoption of an inclusive and collaborative governance style. The book emphasizes the need to shift from citizens’ rights to value creation, thus building a connection with urban economic development. It demonstrates that inclusion is an opportunity to widen the local resource base, create collaborative synergies, and improve conditions for entrepreneurship, which are conducive to the creation of shared urban prosperity.

This open access book addresses the problem of global urban development that excludes various groups of people from the benefits of urban growth and sustainable development. Using the intersectionality and agency of urban dwellers and citizens, it outlines possibilities of responsive urban governance that builds on principles of the inclusive city. The book's first section presents various cases of digital, smart, logistical, and green infrastructure that drive a city's growth and sustainable development while excluding various citizens from these benefits. The second and third sections focus on the intersectionality and agency of urban citizens vulnerable to marginalization in different urban contexts—such as the elderly, people with various physical and mental challenges, women, and children. The last section presents the cases of potential forms of responsive governance and possibilities for future inclusive city planning and development. This book appeals to students of urban and development studies and planning and related disciplines, such as human and cultural geography, applied anthropology, sociology, sustainability sciences, architecture, and design. It is also helpful for activists and practitioners as illustrative cases presented in the book show various experiences and possibilities for making a city inclusive.
