Why is urban design in Pakistan so bad? (ENGLISH)

Those of you have listened to Soch Bichar or followed my work will know that a good analysis of Pakistan’s economy (and indeed of development) will put urban development at the center of inclusive growth for welfare improvement as well as balanced development. This is why we return t0 this subject very often to see how many different perspectives we can get.

Today Sarah Nadeem Ahmed a young urbanlogist who has worked with the urban unit as well as international organizations joins us to talk of how poor urban design of our cities is impacting on life, productivity and happiness.

This is an extremely important subject that we have not started to research or debate. I hope many of you will be inspired to talk about how urbanization and urban design impacts us all.
