Abstract :
This paper looks at the concept of Sustainable
Urban Development, from a global viewpoint, providing
specific information from past and ongoing research and
projects. There is initially discussion around the
popularity of urbanization in recent years and the
subsequent unsustainability of this trend representing a
dire need for a change to be made in development systems.
Particularly, this paper enforces the need for our world to
start adopting a holistic and systematic approach at all
stages of design development ensuring sustainability and
strategic fulfilment of all stakeholder interests. It also
includes certain important environmental procedures
which have been a key instrument in many developments,
such as Triple Bottom Line (TBL) and Environmental
Impact Assessment (EIA). This paper also draws focus to
a key example of a sustainably developed city, i.e.,
Singapore, which has taken into account many
frameworks and concepts mentioned throughout the
paper proving to be a strong example for other cities to
look up to and learn from.
