Urban Renewal: Turkey’s Solution for Housing Problems for Low-Income Groups and Disaster-Resilient Urbanization

  • Reference work entry
  • First Online:

Abstract

Today, cities are growing rapidly, and many have become places that are unplanned, are overcrowded, lack adequate infrastructure, and are vulnerable to disasters and other risks. The UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) provide common principles and standards to enable cities to cope with realization of the rights of individuals to shelter; provision of access to affordable, healthy housing; and resilience to disasters. In Turkey, urban renewal is being implemented as a solution to these problems, entailing legal and administrative structures for housing needs of low-income groups and protection of cities and citizens from disaster damage and increasing urban resilience. This chapter aims to evaluate the contributions of urban renewal to solving housing problems of low-income group citizens and enable resilience. To achieve these aims, legal, administrative, and technical aspects of urban renewal in Turkish cities were evaluated to understand the source of problems and support future policies in Turkey and other countries. This chapter concludes that urban renewal practices carried out in Turkey through the organization Housing Development Administration of Turkey, a central government-facilitated housing agency with a focus on social housing and urban renewal, are in line with SDG11: Sustainable Cities and Communities and its targets. In this context, targets include providing safe and affordable housing especially for low-income groups, citizen participation in urban decisions, supporting resilience, providing citizens access to facilities, protecting natural and cultural heritage, and environmental protection that are substantially met via urban renewal projects. Moreover, the national willingness to reduce disaster risks and ensure resource efficiency is being developed, and international cooperation is also being increased by providing support to developing countries with cross-border projects.
