In a pioneering step towards promoting innovation in urban planning, the Department of Architecture at the Emirates International University organized a scientific discussion session for third-year students in the "Urban Planning Project" course to replan Neighborhood Unit No. (445) in the Sana'a Capital Municipality, fulfilling all requirements aimed at improving quality of life and promoting sustainable urban development.
The project aims to reorganize and replan the neighborhood unit in line with modern urban planning standards, while taking into account the cultural and social specificity of the area. Project objectives include:
1. Improving infrastructure: Developing road, water, sanitation, and electricity networks to ensure better services for residents.
2. Promoting environmental sustainability: Adopting environmentally friendly planning solutions that reduce the effects of climate change and conserve natural resources.
3. Providing basic services: Ensuring the availability of educational, health, and commercial facilities that meet the needs of local residents.
4. Enhancing social cohesion: Designing public spaces and green spaces that encourage community interaction and enhance local identity.
5. Improving housing quality: Regulating housing distribution and enhancing access to adequate and safe housing for all groups.
Dr. Ahmed Yafaa, professor of the "Urban Planning" course, expressed his admiration for the level of excellence and creativity demonstrated by the students in their projects. He said, "Today, we presented a group of pioneering ideas that reflect the students' ability to integrate engineering knowledge with modern requirements, which promises a promising future for them in the field of architecture."
The project was supervised by: Asst. Prof. Dr. Ahmed Mohammed Yafaa and Eng. Aseel Ahmed Al-Hadrani.
These projects represent an important step toward developing students' skills in addressing complex urban challenges, encouraging them to think outside the box and apply contemporary design concepts to suit the needs of future communities.
