Living Environment Innovation (LEI) Project is an interdisciplinary activity the subjects of human activity, sustainable living,living environmental design and planning, environmental management, spatial planning, learning environmental planning, simulation model, education and practice and sustainable development as well as the principles of sustainability.

In the beginning of the 21st century, despite major scientific and technological accomplishments, an increase in spatial and environmental problems in many countries has led to a crisis in living environment and management.

The increasing urbanization of the world coupled with the issues of environmental pollution, resource shortages, global climate changes and economic restructuring demand that a lot of effort will be required in order to make our cities sustainable. Moreover, problems of sustainable planning and management are not restricted to urban areas, since rural areas face serious environmental challenges.

These problems can be resolved by cities becoming efficient habitats, saving resources in a way that improves the quality of living.

 

Living Environment Innovation (LEI) Project will focus on the aspects of urban design and planning that create sustainable living areas for city residents over the long term, and also that encourage and accommodate the participation of residents in the living environmental planning and management of their cities.
