The primary objective is to offer a comprehensive understanding of how cities in the Global South are struggling with the intricate task of achieving sustainability amidst rapid urbanization with population growth, economic transformations, and environmental uncertainties such as climate change associated with emerging extreme events. By examining case studies, policy frameworks, and innovative solutions, the book sheds light on the unique circumstances shaping the sustainability discourse in these urban landscapes. The book also provides a roadmap to craft-informed policies and strategies to foster sustainable urban development, addressing pressing issues such as resource management, climate resilience, and social equity. As the cities of the Global South navigate the challenges of the twenty-first century, the "urban sustainability" emerges as a timely and indispensable guide to shape resilient, inclusive, and environmentally conscious cities in the Global South. This book is a valuable resource for academics, policymakers, urban planners, environmentalists, and citizens at large. 410 0$aDisaster Risk Reduction, Methods, Approaches and Practices,$x2196-4114 606 $aSustainability 606 $aNatural disasters 606 $aUrban policy 606 $aClimatology 606 $aSustainability 606 $aNatural Hazards 606 $aUrban Policy 606 $aClimate Sciences 615 0$aSustainability. 615 0$aNatural disasters. 615 0$aUrban policy. 615 0$aClimatology. 615 14$aSustainability. 615 24$aNatural Hazards. 615 24$aUrban Policy. 615 24$aClimate Sciences. 676 $a307.1416 700 $aDashora$b Lalit Kumar$01802570 701 $aFiroz C$b Mohammed$01802568 701 $aShaw$b Rajib$01474599 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911016074903321 996 $aUrban Sustainability$94410351 997 $aUNINA
