Reducing the Impacts of the Built Environment on the Environment through the Integration of Socio-economic Indicators in Certification Standards
Some cities are recognized for their successful application of forms of revitalization of their habitat, while other cities are clogged and choked with traffic and pollution. The inclusion of sustainable development in the field of construction is behind new methodologies for achieving a more sustainably built environment. The use of tools to measure the degree of sustainability of cities is the method that receives the most attention in developed countries. However, none of the tools used to date covers all three pillars of sustainability (environmental, social and economic). Previous studies show that the participation of citizens and experts is not taken into consideration. This study (paper) will aim to explain the process of our research for integrating socio-economic aspects in the CASBEEUD standard (neighbourhood level). First, the study will seek to analyse the existing built environment through a geographic system (GIS) for the identification of spatial indicators. In addition, from the use of social and economic data through the use of statistical analysis, we will select the data that present a true picture of our territory (either an existing district or a new district). The criteria selected in these analyses will be used in a (in an advanced analytic tool) multi-criteria tool to establish the most efficient indicators in order to integrate them into the CASBEEUD standard.
