Sustainability is an important approach for all organizations. Social responsibility is also included among the important principles of sustainability. This responsibility involves activities for employees, customers, society and other stakeholders. Communication with customers is important in transport companies. This research evaluates the quality of customer communication within a transport company and proposes improvements following fuzzy logic modeling. The results obtained show that customer relations must be constantly improved. Research limitations refer to the sample of companies involved in the present research.

This study analyzes the impact of military expenditures on sustainable development in NATO countries. The analysis utilizes annual data for the period between 1995 and 2019. In this study, the Durbin-Hausman panel cointegration test is used to analyze the cointegration relationship between the variables and the Panel AMG estimator is used to estimate the long-run coefficients. The results of the AMG estimator show that military expenditures and industrial production index have a negative effect on sustainable development in NATO countries, while foreign direct investments have a positive effect. The impact of primary energy consumption is negative and less significant than the other negative impacts. The study also analyzes how the impact of military expenditures on sustainable development varies across countries. This analysis reveals the significant differences in the direction, significance, and coefficient size of the relationship among different countries. These findings suggest that the impact of military expenditures on sustainable development varies across countries. Therefore, countries should develop policies to ensure sustainable development by considering their specific dynamics.

اتجهت الدولة المصرية في الآونة الأخيرة إلى التوسع في إنشاء المجتمعات العمرانية الجديدة تبعاً لأحدث أساليب التخطيط العالمية، وبالتالي ظهر مصطلح جديد ألا وهو "مدن الجيل الرابع"، وهذا المصطلح يشير إلى تلك المدن الذكية التي تدار بالتقنيات الحاسوبية، بما يهدف بالنهاية لتحقيق جودة الحياة والتنمية المستدامة من خلال الاستخدام الأمثل للموارد الطبيعية والحفاظ على حق الأجيال القادمة في بيئة نظيفة. وتم اتخاذ مدينتي المنصورة الجديدة والعلمين الجديدة واللتان تطلان على ساحل البحر المتوسط كدراسة حالة، وذلك عن طريق إنشاء قاعدة بيانات متكاملة باستخدام تقنيات الجيوماتيكس وخاصة نظم المعلومات الجغرافية والاستشعار عن بعد لإنتاج الخرائط الذكية الرقمية التي يمكن الاستفادة منها مستقبلا، حيث صُممت المدينتين لكي تحتوي على نطاقات سكنية وسياحية وخدمات لوجستية، ومراكز للمؤتمرات، وموانئ للمؤتمرات، وموانئ جافة، إلى جانب مناطق للصناعات الخفيفة والمتوسطة، ومركز للمواصلات، بالإضافة إلى الخدمات العامة المختلفة. وقد تم تحديد الضوابط البيئية والجيومورفولوجية كمقومات أو معوقات للتخطيط المستدام للمدينتين، وذلك عن طريق تحديد نوع الظاهرات والعمليات النشطة بكل نطاق، نظراً لوقوع المدينتين بنطاقين جغرافيين مختلفين، كما تقودنا إلى تحديد نوعية ورصد الأخطار البيئية والجيومورفولوجية المستقبلية التي تهدد النشاط البشري وتحديد نطاقات التنمية بمنطقتي الدراسة، مثل الأخطار الناتجة عن تآكل السواحل، وارتفاع منسوب سطح البحر وهشاشة التكوينات والهبوط الأرضي، وعمليات التجوية، وخطر ارتفاع منسوب الماء الأرضي وانعكاس ذلك على عمليات التنمية المستدامة وخاصة السياحية ومصادر الطاقة النظيفة.AbstractThe Egyptian state has recently tended to expand the establishment of new urban communities according to the latest global planning methods, and thus a new term has emerged, which is “fourth-generation cities”. This term refers to those smart cities that are managed using computer techniques, which ultimately aims to achieve quality of life and sustainable development through optimal use of physical resources and preservation of the future generations’ right to a clean environment. The cities of New Mansoura and New El-Alamein, overlooking the Mediterranean coast, are taken as a case study. This is done by creating an integrated database using geomatics techniques, particularly geographic information systems and remote sensing, so as to produce digital smart maps that can be used in the future. The two cities are designed to contain residential, tourism, and logistical services, conference centers, conference ports, dry ports, areas for light and medium industries, a transportation center, and various public services. Environmental and geomorphological controls have been identified as components or obstacles to the sustainable planning for the two cities, by determining the type of features and active processes at each scale, given that the two cities are located in two different geographical areas. They also leads us to identify the quality and monitor future environmental and geomorphological hazards that threaten human activity. Besides, they determine the scopes of development in the two study areas such as the hazards resulting from coastal erosion, rise in sea level, fragility of formations, land subsidence, weathering processes, and the risk of rising groundwater levels, in addition to the impact of this on sustainable development processes, particularly tourism and clean energy resources.

This article investigates the pivotal role of farmers' livelihoods in the conservation and development of agricultural heritage systems. As agricultural heritage systems face endangerment and traditional farming systems expose farmers to various risks, including economic, natural, and environmental, the study aims to fill a crucial research gap. Understanding the impact of these risks, including shocks, trends, and seasonality, on farmers in agricultural heritage sites is essential for sustainable livelihoods and heritage development. It further discussed the relationship between livelihood resources and livelihood outcomes by constructing the analytical framework of risks, livelihood resources, and livelihood outcomes based on the Sustainable Livelihood Framework. Employing a participatory approach, in-depth interviews, Focus Discussions Group (FDG), and qualitative analysis, this research centers on Egypt's vital agricultural cultural heritage, the Siwa Oasis.This study reveals critical findings concerning the challenges faced by the Siwan community. Farmers in Siwa Oasis experience financial strains due to seasonal income fluctuations tied to their agricultural dependency. To address this issue, diversification into tourism during off-peak seasons is emerging as a promising strategy. Furthermore, the market's unpredictability compels farmers to compromise on date sales, impacting their financial capital. Access to credit remains challenging due to cultural beliefs, affecting cash holdings. The study also highlights environmental challenges, particularly a problematic agricultural drainage system that threatens the region, causing waterlogged areas and endangering agricultural heritage. Concerns about unplanned urban development detracting from the cultural authenticity of Siwan villages are prevalent. While Siwa Oasis has displayed resilience against external pressures, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, there are concerns about cultural commodification and ecological impact. Eco-lodges have an environmental impact, and population growth poses challenges to traditional farming techniques and heritage preservation.The study contributes valuable insights into the multifaceted dynamics of agricultural heritage systems, offering a foundation for further academic inquiry. Moreover, the findings hold significance for policymakers and practitioners engaged in heritage site management, guiding efforts to sustain and develop these vital agricultural cultural sites. This research provides a holistic understanding of the challenges faced by farmers in similar heritage farming communities and offers lessons on risk management and sustainable livelihoods that can be applied across various cultural contexts.

Conclusion. | (Abstract) In 2019 the EU Commission launched the ambitious so-called European Green Deal, a set of proposals aimed to revise and update EU legislation and to put in place new initiatives with the goal to ensure that EU policies are in line with climate and SDGs goals. To reach the targets set out by the EU institutions, a crucial role is attributed to private investments, which can mobilize the necessary capital to make feasible the green transition. In this regard, trade agreements are an important driver for sustainable growth both in the EU and in partner countries insofar as they promote private investments in strategic sectors while at the same time they contribute to sustainable development. While the EU Commission has already started to insert trade and sustainable development (TSD) chapters in its trade agreements, another possible path has been identified in the conclusion of new-generation bilateral investment agreements. This Insight examines the recently adopted EU-Angola Sustainable Investment Facilitation Agreement (EU-Angola SIFA) as the first of this new generation of investment agreements. Specifically, this Insight points out that, while the agreement is not yet in force and it will take several years to gauge whether it successfully serves as a stimulus to attract sustainable investments, it can already be considered a further attempt to balance the necessity to attract private capitals indispensable for the green transition with the preservation of States’ regulatory powers.

The recent COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the importance of socio-economic rights and sustainable development not only in Africa but globally. This article discusses the relationship between socio-economic rights and sustainable development. This is followed by a discussion on the impact of pandemics and epidemics on socio-economic rights and the significant effect they can have on the realisation and enjoyment of such rights. Focusing on Africa, the discussion turns to the impact of pandemics and epidemics on sustainable development before looking at the lessons learned from such pandemics and epidemics. Because the recommendations flow from the lessons, these are discussed together. The main recommendation is that a human rights-based approach should be adopted not only in sustainable development but also in any post-pandemic recovery efforts and programmes. Other recommendations include building resilient health systems, addressing the root causes of poverty and inequality, prioritising investment in digital technologies and improving social protection systems, among others.

This contribution will examine the relationship between linguistic practices and the development of the indigenous Misak community in Colombia. Based on qualitative data from two field surveys conducted in the Guambfa resguardo, Cauca department, in 2021 and 2022, our approach includes semi-structured interviews, participant observations, and workshops in the indigenous language (TERPLO) with students at various levels. Our theoretical framework will be grounded in the principles of Giovanni Agresti's Social Development Linguistics, which emphasizes on-the-ground intervention in collaboration with language speakers to improve the quality of life for marginalized populations. By analyzing the Misak case, we will identify the crucial role of minority languages in the intergenerational transmission of ancestral knowledge and community practices, thereby promoting sustainable development and territorial reappropriation.

This study focuses on the environmental issue in Portugal after the 25th of April, analysing the problem from three main perspectives: the contextual diachronic perspective of the critical Anthropocene construction; the relevance of the environmental issue at national and international level and environmental policies in the Portuguese legislative framework, involving questions relating to the normativity of environmental law, legislative discourse and the semantic value of the expressions “environmental quality”, “nature conservation”, “self- sustaining development”, “sustainable development”, “environmental education”, “natural environment”, and “human environment” as concepts associated with the evolution of environmental policies in post-April 25th Portugal. The question is that the Portuguese legal framework use of these concepts may contain an ambivalent valuation, oscillating between conservationist or environmentalist goals and developmentalist aims. The qualitative research methodology is mixed, using the exploratory and the comparative method according to the principles of concordance and difference in analysing legislative discourse.

The study explores the relevance of eco-industrial clusters in promoting Ukraine's post-war reconstruction and sustainable development. To this aim, the paper carries out a comprehensive literature review of academic articles, reports, and case studies on eco-industrial clusters and sustainable development, collect data on Ukraine's post-war reconstruction efforts and the current state of its industrial sector, and analyze relevant legislation and policies. The results show that the success of eco-industrial clusters can be attributed to several critical factors, including robust collaboration between companies, a supportive regulatory framework, and a long-term vision for sustainable development. In the context of Ukraine's post-war reconstruction, an eco-industrial cluster offers an opportunity to build back better by creating new jobs, promoting sustainable economic growth, and enhancing environmental protection. This suggests that an effective ecoindustrial cluster in Ukraine should align with the country's long-term vision for sustainable development, identify industries and companies that can benefit from collaboration and resource sharing, and prioritize stakeholder engagement and public awareness. The involvement of research institutions, a supportive regulatory framework, and financial resources from international donors and investors are also critical for the success of an eco-industrial cluster in Ukraine. By adopting a collaborative, innovative, and sustainable approach to economic development, Ukraine can build a more resilient, inclusive, and prosperous future for its people.

The digital economy and sustainable development are treated as the world’s progress, and there is a vast number of papers investigating the indirect linkage between these two phenomena. However, there is a lack of studies analysing the direct influence. Hence, the purpose of the current paper is to find out if there is an impact of the digital economy, expressed by DESI sub-dimensions, on sustainable development, represented by SDGI. For that issue, statistical data covering 2017-2020 was gathered, and panel regression modelling was applied. The survey covers 28 EU countries (including the United Kingdom because the data was collected before Brexit). The findings revealed that DESI sub-dimensions influence SDGI; however, the impact was negative in most cases. Thus, the current paper showed that standard views on the influence of the digital economy are not always the right ones.

Since the early beginnings of man’s inception, the environment has been the most interested space for him, trying to adapt to the environment is like the focus of the conflict that would prove the existence and effectiveness of man, just as the interaction of man with his environment is a continuous interaction, and the interactions of the environment itself are in a state of constant change, the environment is not stable, as it is the result of a continuous interaction between many changing factors. Therefore, the interaction between man and the environment is as old as it appeared on Earth. The importance of the environment is manifested in the preservation of natural life and the survival of renewable resources automatically. In the past, man lived in a beautiful, innocent and pollution-free environment. But recently, we find no place in the environment except that pollution has destroyed it, thus losing its balance, and man was the first contributor to the environment’s imbalance and damage. ecological balance.Therefore, specialists from all countries of the world, especially in recent decades, sought to try to find some solutions to address this problem and preserve the environmental reality, not the environment preserves the continuity of human life. Conferences, treaties and studies were held in order to protect the environment, and many slogans and concepts crystallized as a result of these attempts Including the concept of (sustainable development), which imposed itself with the exacerbation of environmental problems and the excessive exploitation of the elements of his environment by man, and the consequent deprivation of future generations of many natural resources or their pollution and loss of their characteristics and many of their elements. It seeks to continue to work in a correct manner and try to reach the least deterioration in the surrounding environment.Therefore, the researcher found that increasing awareness of the concept of sustainable development and urging it was the focus of attention of specialists and even artists, as we find that this concept has penetrated the field of art, specifically the art of interactive advertisements that serve as a communication message directed to the masses whose function is to draw attention and urge the preservation of the environment Encouraging the behavior of developing a lifestyle by going towards environmental data, Living in a natural civilized environment free of impurities and preserving its natural resources for its continuity for future generations.

Both society and human beings are evolving at exponential speeds. Health and medicine are following the same path. Digital technology and data are turning our world upside down. Information is becoming ephemeral, shared, sometimes inaccurate, incorrect and fragmented, and knowledge is shifting, evolving and sometimes uncertain. However, medical journals are still a vital channel for the transmission, validation and discussion of medical knowledge. They are an essential pillar of the medical community, contributing to the continuous improvement of healthcare and scientific progress in the medical field. Medical journals are both drivers and vehicles for medical innovation. They must, however, evolve and adapt to changes in society, and reinvent themselves in the light of medical issues, those of healthcare professionals and patients, and even new medical trends and themes such as data, artificial intelligence, sustainable development, transhumanism and unique health.

Created in 2014, the Territorial Food Projects (TFP, "Projets Alimentaires Territoriaux" in French) scheme offers a territorial and multi-stakeholder framework for a more sustainable development of territorial food systems. Faced with the apparent diversity of the methods of elaboration of these TFPs, we hypothesize that they may reveal types and trends of governance, potentially steering the food system of territories onto different transition paths. First, we highlight six types of governance of the TFPs, outlining three broader governance trends -- "centralized", "shared" or "territorialized" -- based on a survey revealing the practices implemented for the development of TFPs in the Occitanie region, France. Second, we propose a theoretical modeling of the possible transition paths of the TFPs according to these governance trends -- ranging from public policy to shared management and territorial development project -- by drawing on various theoretical frameworks from institutional economics, notably territorial economics.

Cooperatives constitute an important force for economic growth and social cohesion. They penetrate all economic and tertiary sectors, they are recognized as successful businesses in which community concerns come first, and they can respond promptly to societal challenges. Although cooperatives and other social economy enterprises were among the first to engage in circularity, the current challenges call for the transformation of production and consumption models applied in this sector to ensure sustainable development. This article contains a study on the importance and opportunity of the transition to the circular economy, international policies in supporting cooperatives in this transition path, the implications of consumer cooperatives in the Republic of Moldova in circularity (made based on a survey of cooperative entities), as well as the argumentation of some proposals which would facilitate the development of national and sectoral policies in support of the circular economy (fiscal, investment, educational, etc.), the implementation of sustainable production and consumption strategies and models in the cooperative sector, the reconsideration of activities promoted through the prism of economic, social and environmental sustainability.

The 2nd french Marine Protected Area was officially created in Mayotte in January 2010, thanks both to a swift procedure and to a strong determined policy. It clearly shows the will of France to manage a broad area in south-west of the Indian Ocean even if its means of action are still to settle. Beyond environemental protection, the park is seen as a useful tool for an island still considered as emergent. From fishing to tourism, many activities hope to take advantage from the dynamic set in motion.

In summary, this article emphasizes the importance of education for sustainable development in higher education practices. By addressing the challenges and proposing strategies to integrate sustainable development into all disciplines, higher education institutions can take the lead in promoting sustainability and preparing students for a sustainable future.

A reference unit for the execution of a contemporary marketable artifactIn the light of sustainable development and preservation of identity and heritageThe research sheds light on the possibility of offering a reference unit for the training and implementation of contemporary art work (two or three-dimensional) inspired by the aesthetics of fabric formation (Khayamiya) as a cultural heritage, and marketable in the light of supporting sustainable economic growth and preserving identity and heritage through the following:- Developing the technical ability of students (first year) at the Faculty of Art Education, Helwan University, providing them with knowledge and skills, and training them to master the technical methods necessary to implement artistic works.- Employing plastic vocabulary and structural foundations for some decorations inspired by the Egyptian artistic heritage according to modern artistic and plastic formulations, with an emphasis on the aesthetic and functional values of the artwork.The importance of this unit is due to the study of this important cultural and artistic heritage, and the training of students scientifically and technically to implement marketable artifacts characterized by authenticity and contemporary, and is an important source for preserving heritage and the identity of the handicraft product in light of the major economic transformations witnessed by our contemporary culture in changing market values and public taste . And that is through the development of technical and plastic formulations that depend on new research hypotheses, whether at the level of perceptions, design, how to achieve or marketing, in a way that effectively contributes to pushing the development train, increasing national income and achieving sustainable economic growth. Hence the following question was identified: - How Can a contemporary art work based on the aesthetics of fabric formation and marketable in light of sustainable development and preservation of identity and heritage be able to compete and confront in light of globalization and market challenges?The students of the first year at the Faculty of Art Education, Helwan University, class of 2020/2021, implemented a variety of artifacts (two - three dimensional) that are marketable with aesthetic and functional values inspired by the artistic heritage (Islamic - folk). The results of practical applications in general achieved the goal. general unit.

Context and background: This paper explores the intersection of smart cities and urban preservation models. The concept of smart cities is rapidly gaining momentum as a way to improve efficiency, sustainability, and livability of urban areas. However, the pursuit of these goals can sometimes conflict with the need to preserve historic and culturally significant urban areas. Main goal and objectives: This paper examines how smart city technologies can be integrated with urban preservation models to create sustainable and liveable cities while also preserving their unique character and cultural heritage. Methodology: It discusses case studies of cities that have successfully implemented such integration, as well as challenges and opportunities for future implementation. Mauritius, like many other countries, is exploring the concept of smart cities as a means to enhance its urban infrastructure and improve the quality of life for its citizens. Smart cities leverage technology and data to optimize various aspects of urban life, including transportation, energy management, public services, and environmental sustainability. While smart cities present numerous opportunities for Mauritius, they also come with their fair share of challenges. Results: The paper examines the challenges and opportunities of the development of smart cities in the Mauritian context. It concludes that smart cities and urban preservation models can complement each other, and that their integration can lead to a more harmonious and sustainable urban future. By integrating smart city technologies and urban preservation models, cities can create a harmonious balance between technological advancement, sustainability, and the preservation of historical and cultural heritage.

This article aimed to analyze the monitoring of the use of financial management software by family farmers. Data on the use of the software were collected and tabulated from ten producers in the west and northwest region of Paraná, in addition to conducting a semi-structured interview with a field professional from a service cooperative. During the interview, it was identified that the producers' knowledge about finance is basic and superficial. However, even with limited knowledge, producers use the practice of a handwritten cash flow. Finally, it was concluded that the producers lack training and technical depth in the financial management of the property, uncomplicated tools, and that have their operation on mobile devices, however, they demonstrate conditions to use basic controls such as cash flow. It also revealed that producers are not available to acquire information technology resources because they do not have the financial resources to acquire them.

In the catalogue of issues undertaken by the eco-philosophical thought, two tasks are of exceptional importance. The first one (retrospective) intends to reveal a set of cultural, ideological and philosophical determinants which, especially in modern epoch, inspired the utilitarian, technocratic, positivist thinking and the consequences of which turned out to be dangerous for life on Earth. The second way of thinking, a prospective one, largely contributes to building a new way to conceive the relations between man and nature. It emphasizes the necessity of becoming aware of global communities of fate. It actively joins in projects aimed at planning the prospects for the future, and building a civilization model focused on ecological needs. The outcome of eco-physiological thinking unquestionably contributed to progressing the ideas of ecodevelopment at first, and after that, of sustainable development. In this article we characterize both tasks completed by ecological philosophy. We show rationales for its arguments and assumptions, suggesting courses of action aimed at sustainable socio-economic developments.

In this article, we wish to examine the place of sustainability, urbanity and diversity in major French urban projects labeled operations of national interest (OIN). Thanks to a certain number of field studies and surveys carried out in Marseille and Nice, within the OIN Euroméditerranée and Écovallée Plaine du Var, we will question their reality and their different territorial impacts.

Since human activities have consequences on ecosystems, the effectiveness of sustainable development is obviously necessary. However, the geographical specificities of the territories are decisive in terms of sustainability choices. How to make sustainable territories happen? What experience can be taken from certain current projects called "smart cities" or territorial ecological transitions? The objective of this article is to present, according to four dimensions of geography, the challenges of public policies in the field of the environment to provide sustainable solutions for territories.

We live in a global age of “modernity out of joint and instrumental rationality” (J. Habermas), in which the neoliberal logic of development is imposed as the dominant way of rationalization in all activities (from the economy to education and culture). This is where we are faced with the phenomenon of the rise of academic capitalism in the management of universities. The spirit of corporate logic suppresses not only the statist way of managing universities, but also any other form of autonomous associative participatory development of universities as a cognitive-educational, rational and humane community of homo academicus. This paper explores the scope of different models of education management, with a special focus on the modern university and its development contradictions. The author culminates this paper with an invocation - that if the university is to become the key cognitive and developmental capital, a factor in the development of self-awareness and a treasurer of identity culture, and a participant in the humanistic-emancipatory processes of the democratic development of society and humanity, it must avoid the traps of both statist and corporate management. In other words, the modernization process of the university management system must follow the principles of a rational, humane and participative community, whose supreme values are: the creative search for truth, the development of an autonomous critical personality, lifelong learning, patriotism and philanthropy. Achieving these goals requires the preservation and development of the university's autonomy, because it is a prerequisite for its development as a creative and critical institution in the service of truth, people and humanity. Meeting these goals requires the preservation and development of the university's autonomy, because it is a prerequisite for its development as a creative and critical institution in the service of truth, people and humanity.

Conclusions. | (Abstract) The environmental integration principle, which aims to incorporate environmental considerations into the regulatory instruments in the fields outside Environmental Law, initially emerged and evolved in International and subsequently in EU Law. Since its emergence, the environmental integration principle has been closely linked to the concept of sustainable development, given that the principle is perceived as a key instrument for its realisation. The main aim of this Article is to answer the question of whether the environmental integration principle has not only a procedural, but also a substantive meaning in EU Law and, if this question is answered in the affirmative, the question of how the substantial component of the principle can be determined. Answering this question pre-supposes not only analysing the legal status, the addressees and the regulative context of the respective provision, but also certain recent critical developments that have taken place since the adoption of the EU Green Deal. The main message underpinning this Article is that the principle also has a substantive meaning that has been reinforced since the adoption of the EU Green Deal, but often it cannot be clearly delineated. The implementation of its substantive component through the respective legal instruments can also result in conflicts with the provisions of the EU Economic Constitution.

In 2015 the government in Wales passed into law the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act. This act is the first legislation in the world to enshrine the rights of future generations alongside current ones and requires Welsh Government ministers and the organisations they oversee to embed this commitment into everything they do. The creation of the Act was a brave and wonderful act by the Welsh Government and a vote of confidence by the Welsh legislature for a different, more sustainable future for Wales.Written by the Minister who proposed the Act, this article recounts what led up to it, examines why Wales was first to do it and then assesses whether it is working and what needs to happen next.

Wales has economically underperformed its European neighbours for decades. As societies and economies transform in response to key climate, nature and technological pressures, this paper asks whether recent policy innovations in Wales, the result of political devolution from London, signal a new radicalism. Will this comprise a different approach to regional development, one that values the local over the global, and wellbeing over economic growth, resulting in a more resilient, sustainable and responsible region?

The world is witnessing a large and continuous process of rural-urban population ‎transformation. This poses a major challenge to the urban planning and sustainable ‎development processes. Accordingly, these processes must keep pace with the future ‎and are based on scientific foundations to achieve the desired and achieve prosperity. Data and indicators that include all dimensions of sustainable development are ‎considered one of the important tools for achieving effective and efficient development ‎policies. The Habitat City Prosperity An initiative is a tool for measuring sustainable ‎urban development that enables city management authorities and various stakeholders ‎to identify different opportunities and areas for development to make cities more ‎prosperous. The research sought to describe and analyze the city prosperity initiative and study the ‎relationship between it and the goals of sustainable development in general, and a ‎detailed study of one of its main axes (infrastructure development), then study its ‎results in the city of Makkah and study how the indicators of infrastructure development ‎were reflected in development policies. The research took a methodology to achieve the goals through the descriptive, ‎analytical approach and case study to devise how to use the indicators of city prosperity ‎to set development policies. The research concluded the importance of the Cities Prosperity initiative as a tool for ‎monitoring and analyzing the current situation and as a monitoring and evaluation tool ‎to achieve the goals as well as a tool for how to achieve the goals. The research also ‎showed how to use the indicators of prosperity and quadrennial analysis thereof in ‎setting development policies and achieving sustainable urban development. The ‎research recommends the necessity of publishing and teaching the indicators of ‎prosperity to architects. Also, planners at the university level as well as in the ‎professional field, as well as training workers in the relevant authorities, as well as ‎setting up a system of qualitative indicators for comprehensive information on ‎development issues.‎
