【 摘 要 】

With the beginning of the twenty-first century, the world is undergoing rapid changes, but adequate and affordable housing remains a concern for all countries. This requires a new understanding of housing to address pressing issues such as slum reduction, economic and social development and climate change. Housing is no longer just a roof but is now playing an important role in achieving sustainable development - as envisioned in the idea of sustainable housing. Sustainable housing provides a comprehensive framework for the form of sustainable housing policies and practical actions. Although sustainable housing is often viewed from a resource-based perspective, it is a more comprehensive approach that recognizes the multiple functions of housing as a physical and social system. Sustainable housing policies must deal with affordability, social and cultural equity and the economic impact of housing and contribute to making neighborhoods healthier and more sustainable. The study deals with a number of issues related to sustainable housing, focusing on the relationship between the concept of sustainable development and housing and the most important concepts in the recent trends in urban planning related to sustainable housing for the purpose of developing a system of indicators for evaluating housing sustainability based on the views of experts in housing and urban planning. The research assumes that housing indicators provide an important step towards sustainable housing, and indicators must be evaluated in a broad context because they are influenced by a wide range of indicators that affect the quality of life of society. The research aims to develop indicators that represent sustainable housing through local privacy, helping to bring together the linkages between housing and sustainability issues together.
