AN APPLIED PROJECT TOWARDS SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTIVITY DEVELOPMENT IN KAFR MAKAWI - ZAGAZIG CITY - SHARKIA GOVERNORATE

Abstract

The natural environment in Kafr Mekkawi, in the city of Zagazig in the Sharkia governorate, is being eroded, with its land and natural resources, during the unplanned urban growth that will negatively affect the resident population and their future generations. This local experiment aims to shift from random consumer growth to sustainable productive development through housing development as a mechanism to activate productive development activities during the optimal use of land while preserving its natural resources.
