“…En los seminarios teórico-metodológicos cada estudiante propone su proyecto que debe estar inscrito en alguna de las líneas de investigación y, diseña la metodología específica con base en autores como Hurtado (2010), Hernández et al (2010), Packer (2013), May (2011) y otros, para abordar los objetivos general y específicos de su propuesta, el enfoque metodológico y las herramientas para la indagación y la recolección de datos, de tal manera que pueda desarrollar su tesis durante el segundo año de la maestría. Las reflexiones resultantes de los procesos investigativos hacen énfasis en la necesidad de una política pública que disminuya la desigualdad, proponiendo soluciones innovadoras que se aparten de la generación de grandes barrios carentes de servicios urbanos que no contribuyen a la conformación de identidad y sentido de pertenencia entre sus habitantes, y por tanto, no son socialmente sustentables (Montoya et al, 2020).…”

“…La maestría en Hábitat viene construyendo sus múltiples ref lexiones en el nivel teórico-metodológico y en el práctico-práxico a escala de la vivienda o del barrio, de la ciudad, la región o el planeta, en procura de encontrar las formas de mejorar la calidad de vida de la población y sus condiciones de habitabilidad con criterios de sostenibilidad multidimensional (Montoya, 2020). A partir de los procesos de investigación individual se busca, desde luego, producir conocimiento para que las reflexiones sobre el hábitat puedan contribuir a generar lineamientos de política que permitan que la política pública sobre el hábitat se revierta a las necesidades de los seres humanos y contribuyan a establecer condiciones más equitativas entre la población.…”

A partir de la comprensión del hábitat como trama de relaciones dinámicas, espaciales y temporales que construyen los seres humanos, la maestría en Hábitat de la Universidad Nacional de Colombia viene produciendo conocimiento y generando metodologías para el estudio del hábitat desde diferentes escalas, formando investigadores y cualificando profesionales que orienten sus estudios a mejorar las condiciones de habitabilidad y la calidad de vida de la población. Este artículo tiene como propósito exponer algunas de las teorías del hábitat que soportan los procesos de investigación en la maestría, la manera como se desarrolla el proceso investigativo por parte de los estudiantes y, para terminar, unas reflexiones.

“…In terms of research methods, with the diversification of research data, research technical means are gradually enriched, mainly including quantitative analysis, such as entropy method [12], analytic hierarchy process [13], Delphi method [14], principal component analysis [15], structural equation model [16], and the combination of GIS spatial analysis and geographic measurement model, which is currently widely used [17,18]. On the scale of geospatial research, the administrative geographic scale includes global [19], country [20], urban agglomerations [21], cities [22], communities [23], urban fringe areas [24], and rural areas [3] and specific research areas include islands [25], basins [6], mountains [26], and informal settlements [27]. In terms of research perspective and research content, the content of human settlements is researched from macro to micro from multidisciplinary and multiperspective of environmental science [28], biology [29], history [30], sociology [31], geography [32], planning [33], and architecture [34], such as theoretical research on the HS, including the related concepts, development history, and disciplinary framework of the HS [35]; research on the spatial-temporal differentiation of environmental quality [36], livability [37], satisfaction [38], sustainability [39]; research on the coupling and coordination degree of HS system [40]; influencing factors of HS, including vegetation [41], resource richness [42], topography [43], new pollutants [44], social welfare…”

The sustainable development of the human settlements (HS) has become a global universal program. The comparison of cities in different countries is of great significance to provide international experience for future urban construction. Combined with the UN 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), this paper establishes an evaluation index system for the sustainable development ability of urban HS and constructs a three-dimensional research framework of “development-coordination-sustainability,” which compares the sustainable development ability of the HS of Dalian, China, and Kobe, Japan, from 2005 to 2018 and explores the spatial evolution characteristics and obstacle factors of the HS of the two cities. The results show that (1) the development degree of the HS of the two cities is on the rise. The development level of Kobe is always higher than that of Dalian, and the gap is gradually narrowing; Kobe has advantages in natural and residential environment, while Dalian has advantages in cultural and economic environment. (2) The coordination degree of the development of the HS of the two cities has improved steadily, and the coordination degree of Kobe is better than that of Dalian. (3) The sustainability of the development of the HS of the two cities is fluctuating, and the average sustainable growth rate of Dalian is higher than that of Kobe. (4) The sustainable development space of the HS in Dalian presents a pattern of “high in the south and low in the north,” and the spatial characteristics of the subsystems are different; the main obstacles have changed from economic-natural to economic-natural-cultural-public services, and the obstacles to development in districts are different. (5) The sustainable development space of the HS in Kobe has a high level of development in the southeast, radiating to the surrounding area, and the spatial characteristics of the subsystems are different; the main obstacles have changed from economic-cultural-natural to economic-natural-population, and the obstacles to development in districts are different. Finally, it puts forward targeted suggestions for the sustainable construction of Dalian. This paper can provide methodological reference for quantitative assessment of the sustainable development of HS and provide policy reference for scientific planning of the construction of HS.

“…Tehran, Mashhad, Zahedan, Tabriz, and Isfahan are the cities with the highest number of informal settlements, respectively, and in need of improvement [8]. Despite the long history of urbanization and recognition by government policies, living conditions in these areas are very difficult [9]. Despite years of efforts to strengthen the urban status, in the current situation, these neighbourhoods are commonly identified with severe insecurity and vulnerability in the social, economic, and physical sectors.…”

Quality of life is a concept used to describe the development of the welfare of society, and improving the quality of life is one of the most important goals of governments around the world. Informal settlements, as one of the most vulnerable urban areas, are always in unfavorable conditions in terms of various social, economic, and physical indicators. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to investigate the status of various quality of life indicators in informal settlements around the metropolis of Tehran in Iran. This research is descriptive, analytical, and correlational based on primary data in which the initial data are collected through the documentary and survey (field) method using a questionnaire. The collected data were processed by SPSS and SmartPLS software. Based on the results of the t-test, quality of life indices in informal settlements around the metropolis of Tehran, on a Likert scale with an average of 23.2, is at a low level. Also, the results of the PSL path modelling and multivariate regression test show that increasing the quality of social, economic, physical, service, and access indicators, in terms of residents, has the greatest impact on improving the quality of life of this urban fabric and security index. It has the least impact. There is also a significant relationship between indicators, and the mental perspective of citizens changes under social, service, economic, and physical conditions.
