商品描述
The transformation of the built environment during the last few decades has placed enormous demands for land on the built environment. About 7.7 billion people now live on the planet, and that number is expected to increase by 2.5-3.0 billion in just 30 years, with the highest growth projected to be in less developed regions (H. De Soto, Foreword 2021). This increase should occupy a habitable land of 15 million hectares to accommodate around 500 million housing units with an average density of 200 persons per hectare. Although the rate of natural increase is slowing down, migration to cities is already at a higher rate than the natural population growth (Zimmermann 2021). It is projected that the number of people living in metropolises will increase to 3.47 billion by 2035, representing 39% of the global population and 62.5% of the world's urban population. Based on these data, almost 1 billion people will become metropolitan inhabitants in the next fifteen years (UNHABITAT, Population Data booklet 2020). The populations of urban areas in the Global South are projected to increase by 1.2 billion by 2050, placing an enormous pressure on governments and the international community to provide the needed land to accommodate this population growth. This means that the potential of all recently natural resources of land need to be realized in full to make progress in enabling more people to shelter themselves. This is bound to subsequently transform cities -yielding several challenges, such as whether cities can finance or meet basic provision of services and habitable land for millions of new citizens.

過去幾十年來，建築環境的轉變對土地提出了巨大需求。目前全球有約77億人口，預計在未來30年內將增加25-30億人口，其中發展中地區的增長將最為顯著（H. De Soto, Foreword 2021）。為了容納約5億個住房單位，平均每公頃人口密度為200人，這種增長需要佔地1500萬公頃的可居住土地。儘管自然增長率正在減緩，但城市遷移已經超過自然人口增長率（Zimmermann 2021）。預計到2035年，居住在大都市的人口將增加到34.7億，占全球人口的39％，占世界城市人口的62.5％。根據這些數據，未來15年將有近10億人成為大都市居民（UNHABITAT，人口數據手冊2020）。預計到2050年，全球南方城市地區的人口將增加12億，給政府和國際社會提供了巨大壓力，以提供所需的土地來容納這一人口增長。這意味著必須充分利用所有最近的自然土地資源，以實現更多人的住房需求。這必然會改變城市，帶來一系列挑戰，例如城市是否能夠為數百萬新市民提供基本服務和可居住土地的財政支持。

Ramin Keivani is an urban development specialist with a particular interest on the interface of economic globalization, development of land markets and urban growth and their impact on urban equity, particularly in relation to urban land policy and low-income housing delivery in the global South and transition economies. My most recent work focuses on urban social sustainability. I have also worked on other projects on housing delivery in the UK and healthy urban mobility. After completing the PhD at University College London, I worked for a period of time in the Middle East on urban development and planning in a number of cities in Iran before returning to the UK in 1997 to pursue my academic career. I taught at UCL and London South Bank universities before joining Brookes in 2003 to lead research and teach in the then Department of Real Estate and Construction and its successor School of the Built Environment. I also led the Real Estate and Land Policy research group of Oxford Institute for Sustainable Development between 2007-2019. Prof Keivani is on the steering committee of the UN-Habitat World Urban Campaign and the Global Network for Sustainable Housing. I am also the Founding Editor in Chief of the International Journal of Urban Sustainable Development.

Ramin Keivani是一位城市發展專家，對經濟全球化、土地市場發展和城市增長以及它們對城市公平性的影響特別感興趣，尤其是與城市土地政策和低收入住房供應有關的問題，這些問題在全球南方和轉型經濟體中尤為突出。我最近的工作集中在城市社會可持續性上。我還參與了英國的住房供應和健康城市交通等其他項目。在倫敦大學學院（University College London）完成博士學位後，我在中東的伊朗多個城市從事城市發展和規劃工作，然後於1997年返回英國，開展學術事業。我曾在倫敦大學學院和倫敦南岸大學任教，然後於2003年加入布魯克斯大學（Oxford Brookes University），負責研究和教授房地產和建築環境學科。我還在2007年至2019年期間擔任牛津可持續發展研究所（Oxford Institute for Sustainable Development）的房地產和土地政策研究小組負責人。Keivani教授是聯合國人居署世界城市運動和全球可持續住房網絡的指導委員會成員。我還是《國際城市可持續發展期刊》（International Journal of Urban Sustainable Development）的創始主編。
