“…In order to address this complexity and improve cities' functioning, safety, attractiveness, accessibility, inclusiveness and recognition as a Smart City, researchers have considered several holistic approaches and models. Examples include: a) modern city concepts, such as placemaking (Mackenzie, 2015), the smart cities concept (Smart cities, 2014), city as a sustainable ecosystem (Newman & Jennings, 2008), and city as a complex adaptive system (Albrechts, 2006); b) urban planning, design and governing concepts, such as a planning framework for green spaces (La Rosa et al, 2018), collaborative urbanism-oriented framework for interrogative infrastructures (Dyer, Gleeson, & Grey, 2017), and an action-oriented holistic planning approach introduced by Albrechts (2006); c) multi-stakeholder (Wai, Nitivattananon, & Kim, 2017), collaborative and participatory approaches (Castelnovo, 2015;Castelnovo, Misuraca, & Salvoldelli, 2015a, 2015bDionisio, Banwell, & Kingham, 2016;Dyer et al, 2017); d) multi-criteria evaluation models that support planning, design and decision-making processes (Cafuta, 2015;Dall'O, Bruni, Panza, Sarto, & Khayatian, 2017;La Rosa et al, 2018;Martinelli, Battisti, & Matzarakis, 2015), as well as user-centred methodological frameworks such as the ethnographic analytical framework introduced by Menezes and Smaniotto Costa (2016).…”

Public space users with impairments are not only those with disabilities, but also the elderly, the long-term ill, the injured, pregnant women, parents with small children, etc., and each of them has a certain level of special needs when using public spaces. Public space users with disabilities live with diverse disabilities, be they physical, sensory, mental or cognitive, and the diversity within each of the groups is significant as well. The needs of disabled citizens reflect the diversity recognized within the groups of disability. In addition, there is a significant level of individuality expressed through individuals' characteristics, attitudes and motivations, as well as constraints towards themselves, their (dis)abilities, their lives and their community, the environment in which they live, etc. CONCLUSIONS (process-wise; typology of materials gained): A detailed folder of digitally and manually produced multimodal material, collected for and by participants with identified demographic and personal data. Researcher's diary with observations of the users. SPATIAL CONCLUSIONS (content-wise): Public spaces still tend to be designed to fit the needs of a fully abled adult male, thus creating barriers for a great array of citizens with different impairments. Urban planning design still focuses mainly on visual aspects of the environment, thus primarily creating visually attractive but non-inclusive public spaces. As a result, it discriminates to a large extent against visually impaired people, who rely on senses other than vision. Nevertheless, in recent years, progress in increasing the accessibility of public spaces in the two cities has significantly increased for the physically impaired. For the visually impaired, accessibility of public spaces has improved, but many barriers can still be detected.

“…Citizens should be enabled to use high quality public urban infrastructures and services, fully participate in urban life through them and truly become owners of the city. Therefore, the application of participatory technologies for urban infrastructures has become an important issue in the inclusive city urban development (Dionisio et al 2016;Murphy et al 2016;Pérez-delhoyo et al 2016).…”

Many local governments engaging in sustainable urban development also have a growing interest in becoming inclusive too, brand themselves as such and develop policies to become inclusive cities. However, knowing what exactly this entails and how it can be achieved is not always quite straightforward and requires thorough theoretical and empirical exploration. Consequently, we present a systematic deconstruction of the inclusive city concept in order to develop a better understanding of the main features and dimensions; this is done by means of both a bibliometric analysis and qualitative literature review. The results indicate that inclusiveness is multidimensional and comprised of spatial, social, environmental, economic, and political dimensions in which the characteristics of participation, equity, accessibility and sustainability are sometimes interwoven. Overall, the inclusive city is not merely a precondition for the creation of just space, well-being, and environmental responsibility, but also an opportunity to take stock of interests of stakeholders in cities and to create local public value. The findings have implications for urban policy and practice, more specifically, the clarification of the inclusive city concept and conceptual dimensions will provide significant reference for policymakers and practitioners to make prudent decisions in the process of creating an inclusive city.

“…The eastern suburbs and the central business district of Christchurch were two of the hardest-hit areas, requiring the demolition of close to 90% of the buildings (Dionisio, Kingham, Banwell, & Neville, 2016). Not only were there spatial voids, there were also large voids in the population.…”
