Humanization Strategy of the public urban space in Cairo

An accurate scientific definition of the term “humanization of cities” has not yet crystallized, which refers the term to the word from which it is derived. She is "human". Obviously, anything contrary to it is inhuman; starting from wild nature or a life entirely dependent on vehicles. If a person cannot dispense with vehicles when carrying out his daily activities, then here we know that the standard of humanization in a place is low. However, if the planning of a city or neighborhood takes into account the needs of the population and the human standard, then the city may reach humanization. Also Implementing ideas and laws aimed at "humanizing" urban surroundings is one of the primary strategies for improving the standard of living in cities. This made it necessary to identify the most important elements, human needs, and activities that must be taken into account within the problematic metropolis's larger urban framework. These were included in the study's analysis to support its conclusion that the Cairo metropolitan area as a whole had not complied with most humanization standards. The research then reveals ideas that support addressing human needs in urban public spaces. In 2010 the World Health Organization dedicated the Word Health Day to urbanization and health, highlighting the impacts of urban living on physical and mental health. This is because it is increasingly acknowledged that cities face various problems that undermine the quality of urban life, when it comes to an assessment of the living conditions and well-being in cities, economic indices have failed to capture the aforementioned contradiction of urban life. A concept able to monitor the multidimensional nature of cities seems to be the “quality of urban life” (QOUL). The multidimensionality of the QOUL concept reflects the variety of the examined dimensions, but also the range of the different uses of the term. Many different approaches to this concept can be found not only between papers of different disciplines (health sciences, social sciences, or planning), but also in the context of the same scientific field. Thus, although there has recently been a remarkable number of comparative studies and papers concerning the evaluation of QOUL in different cities, the factors taken into account are far from being standard[1]
