As urban communities spread and populations grow, the impact on the natural environment escalates. The hydrological cycle is among the environmental aspects most impacted by urbanization. Consequently, this study suggests a “Water Sensitive Urban Design Tool” that comprises three dimensions: (i) determining the specific issues facing residential water demand; (ii) identifying the factors influencing these issues; and (iii) the relevant water sustainability objectives and criteria. The WSUD tool could be utilized by urban designers and planners to assess the water performance of residential urban areas. It could be employed to evaluate current conditions, suggested retrofitting options, or Greenfield developments. Thus, the tool not only measures the water sensitivity of residential areas but could also support decision-making and guide development. To evaluate the suggested WSUD tool and examine its suitability to the Egyptian context, particularly the residential sector, a survey was conducted with water-related experts and design specialists. Based on the survey a finalized version of the WSUD Tool was formalized.","PeriodicalId":39925,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Urban Research","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78503321","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recently the quality of urban life (QoUL) becomes a concept that has been discussed in various studies as a response to many problems facing the city streets. However, most streets are designed now for vehicle movements rather than for all users’ needs and values. In this context, the research aims to activate the street's role that achieves the quality of urban life (QoUL) for all users through focusing on the review of the trends and the approaches of urban design and the displays of the quality of urban life definitions and its indicators. To these ends, the research sets a proposed list of urban quality indicators as a guideline framework to assess street performance. Therefore, in the analytical study, the research chooses one street in Egypt then applies the proposed quality indicators framework to assess the street quality. The research concludes the important role of the indicators of the urban quality of life: social, physical, environmental, economic, visual, and management indicators to achieve the street quality.","PeriodicalId":39925,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Urban Research","volume":"59 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73899618","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It emphasizes on locals’ support and the fact that encouragement and motivation are the only ways to attain the protection of the environment and the enhancement of tourism development. Ecotourism practices in many countries faced various obstacles that hinder their success such as lack of training, services, infrastructure, and marketing budget. Therefore, The CBE strategies have been formulated by some developing countries to fill in these gaps. These governments have actually succeeded in the implementation of those strategies, and it showed a positive impact on economic development, environmental management, and local community empowerment. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to examine the characteristics of successful community-based ecotourism initiatives and identify the principles of a successful CBE development strategy and its indicators, by analyzing the different implemented strategies in those developing countries, using the analytical and comparative approach. The paper focused on four developing countries, which are: Kenya, Jordan, Tunisia, and India, in addition to their strategic locations and their unique ecological characteristics, the case studies were selected also based on their followed successful techniques in facing their economic, social, political, and ecological problems and challenges. The paper concludes the methods used to measure the success of these strategies by identifying several and varied indicators that should be taken into account to ensure their effectiveness and sustainability.","PeriodicalId":39925,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Urban Research","volume":"56 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87331757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
