Conducted collaboratively between the Faculty of Arts and Design and the Health Research Institute, the project reinterprets social sustainability through the lens of Canberra’s urban context. Its findings aim to provide evidence-based strategies to assist policymakers, developers, and communities in creating healthier, more inclusive, and socially supportive multi-unit residential environments.All are welcome! BioRahmatollah Amirjnai:Rahmatollah Amirjani is a Lecturer in Architecture at the School of Design and Built Environment, University of Canberra.
