“…Mohamed Ikhwan Nasir Mohamed Anuar & Saiful Arif Abdullah (2022) underscore the advantages of green infrastructure by transforming lost highway spaces into vibrant public spaces, a concept especially impactful in densely populated urban areas. Sarhan et al (2016) developed a matrix defining six-measure priority for each park type and the quantity value of attributes driven within each measure, which could serve as criteria and indicators for evaluating the effectiveness of SUPs in promoting urban resilience to climate change.…”

As cities face the challenges of climate change, small urban parks offer a promising solution for promoting urban resilience. These parks can mitigate the impacts of climate change by providing carbon sequestration, reducing the urban heat island effect, and improving stormwater management. They can also serve as a key adaptation strategy by providing shade and cooling, reducing air pollution, and enhancing social cohesion and community engagement. However, there is a need for criteria and indicators that can guide the design, implementation, and management of small urban parks for climate change mitigation and adaptation. This paper proposes a set of criteria and indicators that can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of small urban parks in promoting urban resilience. The criteria include ecological, social, economic, governance dimensions, and the indicators are measurable, relevant, and practical. The proposed framework can support decision-making processes for planners, policymakers, and practitioners to prioritise and allocate resources for small urban parks that can contribute to climate change mitigation and adaptation in cities.

“…Taman ramah hak asasi manusia dibentuk untuk mendukung suatu kabupaten atau kota menjadi kota ramah hak asasi manusia. Taman kota ramah hak asasi manusia dapat diimplementasikan melalui tema-tema khusus seperti taman ramah anak, taman lansia, dan taman khusus penyandang difabel (Sarhan, Farghaly, & Elsayed, 2016).…”

Kabupaten Wonosobo menjadi Kota Ramah Hak Asasi Manusia pada tahun 2014. Hal tersebut mengacu pada Deklarasi Gwangju guna mewujudkan kovenan HAM internasional. Bentuk implementasinya adalah melalui pembangunan taman kota ramah HAM yaitu Taman Kartini dan Taman Fatmawati. Permasalahan yang terjadi pada kedua taman adalah belum optimalnya tata kelola taman kota pada beberapa aspek seperti minimnya sosialisasi taman ramah HAM kepada masyarakat dan minimnya perawatan fasilitas taman yang rusak. Tujuan penelitian yaitu untuk mengkaji tata kelola taman kota di Kabupaten Wonosobo. Tata kelola yang dimaksud adalah bentuk manajemen pembangunan dengan kerjasama dan pelibatan sluruh stakeholder. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode penelitian kuantitatif. Data diperoleh melalui kegiatan telaah dokumen, observasi, kuisioner, dan wawancara terstuktur. Analisis yang digunakan yaitu analisis deskriptif kuantitatif dan analisis skoring data. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan terdapat perbedaan tata kelola antara Taman Kartini dan Taman Fatmawati pada tahap pemeliharaan khususnya pada pihak yang bertanggung jawab. Tata kelola taman kota ramah hak asasi manusia yang baik dapat diwujudkan melalui pemenuhan prinsip-prinsip pada tiap tahapan pembangunan meliputi tahap perencanaan, implementasi dan pemeliharaan. Prinsip utama yang harus diakomodir adalah prinsip partisipatif, prinsip akuntabilitas dan prinsip transparansi.

Urban parks are vital places for the protection of urban biodiversity and the environment, and their design and ethos are also relevant to the quality of life and human well-being in urban areas. With the development of cities and the improvement of the living standards of the people, some existing parks and open spaces have been unable to meet people's various needs for urban living environment, so the redesign and renovation of urban parks and open spaces has become a topical issue in the fields of architecture and urban planning. This study selected an urban pocket park in Sydney, Australia, as a case to explore a new approach to designing urban spaces – introducing biophilic concepts to address practical development needs. The case study also demonstrates the great potential and possibilities of biophilic concepts in improving the quality and appropriateness of urban spaces and environments. In addition, this study attempts to integrate the biophilic concept with the design and renovation of existing urban pocket parks and explore the characteristics and feasibility of the concept in terms of different functional areas and details. The significance of this study is not only to test the possibility of combining biophilic theory with urban spatial planning principles, but also to provide practical experience and suggestions for future construction and development of designs that are dominated or inspired by natural elements.
