Considerable parts of the urban population, especially in the Global South, are poor, whereas others are affluent. In part, poverty is associated with the influx of poor rural immigrants in need of jobs, shelter and basic services such as water, electricity, education and health care. Levels of access to these basic services can differ a lot between socio-economic groups and will also vary across urban spaces. To address such inequalities, contemporary urban development strategies and policies are directed toward the inclusion of socially and economically weaker groups. These groups need to benefit most from sustainable planning interventions. Here, inclusiveness and competitiveness need to be linked, as only inclusive cities can be truly competitive. Successful cities offer competitive locations and are centres of innovation, where liveability and inclusiveness are important factors. When analysing the economic performance of an urban region, the role of geography needs explicit consideration as urban competitiveness requires an understanding of spatial relationships inside cities (e.g., variations of locational factors and clustering of economic activities). Furthermore, the role of land use (planning) and land markets is essential for understanding competitiveness in all its dimensions for building competitive and inclusive cities."@en .

"This elective explores issues of socio-spatial inequality, differentiation and fragmentation that impact the urban environment and the quality-of-life of urban residents. We concentrate on capturing and understanding diverse forms of knowledge regarding intra-urban variations of quality-of-life, including socioeconomic status and health. A better understanding of the resulting socio-spatial patterns is essential for targeting (multiple) deprived areas and implementing area-based and regeneration policies. Particular attention will be paid to different scales of analysis and categorisations.\n\nThe course follows a challenge-based learning approach where students Identify a learning path to solve socially relevant challenges related to urban quality of life and well-being. This course presents several methods under a mixed-methods approach. Through a combination of lectures, reading assignments, exercises, and group work, students learn to combine quantitatively derived patterns and measures with urban residents generated data and perceptions and interpret the complementary results acquired. Group collaboration: each student will carry a diary to report their work, observations, challenges, and strategies to methods used."@en . "Intra Urban Spatial Patterns and Processes"@en . .

"“Planning for Liveable Cities” critically addresses inequalities within urban areas by analysing concerns about social equity, quality of life, health and well-being and urban competitiveness in light of urban development patterns and strategies. Tensions and trends in planning for these visions and ideals is discussed. Different tools are introduced and applied to analyse these patterns. Students will engage with various scales of analysis, applying geospatial solutions to develop people-centric and digitally-informed strategies that support the transition towards more equitable, healthy, and just urban futures. By capturing and understanding diverse forms of knowledge related to intra-urban variations in quality of life, the curriculum aims to create a deeper understanding of these patterns. This is crucial for targeting deprived areas and formulating effective area-based and people-based policies. "@en . "Planning for Liveable Cities"@en . . "Planning for Liveable Cities"@en .
