Infrastructure projects are being planned and implemented around the world. These projects lead to economic growth and social development, but often unexpected side effects emerge. The problem is that financial analyses for infrastructure projects do not incorporate quantified economic assessments of social and environmental impacts. Equally, social and environmental assessments for infrastructure projects rarely qualify or quantify socioeconomic outcomes for investments in mitigation practices. Our analysis builds on a review of existing methodologies and tools to propose a method for jointly applying three modeling approaches for integrated economic and spatial planning. The results of case study of the Mekong Flooded Forest landscape shows the capability of the models to anticipate desired and undesired outcomes across social, economic and environmental indicators. This shows promising potential for better informing decision making for sustainability.

Предложена авторская разработка кейса для изучения исторических поселений в курсе «Пространственное планирование» - для магистров-географов. Исторические территории - это один из типов районов территориального планирования во всех странах мира, это объекты культурного наследия ЮНЕСКО (списки). В России исторические территории и поселения - новые объекты территориального планирования. В географии и истории - это популярная тема исследований. Опыт профессиональной оценки исторических поселений (их планировочных особенностей, типов застройки, функций) - важная компетенция географов-исследователей. The author developed a case study for the study of urban agglomerations in the course «Spatial Planning» for master-geographers is proposed. Historical territories are one of the types of territorial planning areas in all countries of the world, they are UNESCO cultural heritage sites (lists). In Russia, historical territories and settlements are new objects of territorial planning. It is a popular research topic in geography and history. The experience of professional assessment of historical settlements (their planning features, types of buildings, functions) is an important competence of researchers in geography.

Предложена авторская разработка кейса для изучения городских агломераций в курсе «Пространственное планирование» - для магистров-географов. Городские агломерации как основные формы современного городского пространства - это один из типов районов территориального планирования (районной планировки) во всех странах мира. В России для городских агломераций разрабатываются Схемы территориального планирования. В географии - это популярная тема исследований. Опыт профессиональной оценки трансформации планировочной структуры городских агломераций - важная компетенция географов-исследователей. Кейс разработан для Барселоны (Испания). The author developed a case study for the study of urban agglomerations in the course «Spatial Planning» for geographers. City agglomerations as the main forms of modern urban space - this is one of the types of areas of territorial planning (district planning) in all countries of the world. In Russia, for urban agglomeration, Territorial planning schemes are being developed. In geography, this is a popular research topic. The experience of professional assessment of the transformation of the planning structure of urban agglomerations is an important competence of geography researchers. The case was developed for Greater Damascus (Syria).

Cities all over the world are expanding their suburbs, which typically feature districts comprised of single-family development - urban sprawl. In recent years, urban sprawl has also become highly visible in Poland, not only in the vicinity of large cities like Krakow, Rzeszow or Warsaw, but has also affected several smaller municipalities, e.g. in the south of the country. Based on the case study of the municipality of Biecz, located at the foot of the Carpathian Mountains, it was concluded that spatial disharmony is strongly linked with municipal policy. The lack of precise legal regulations causes areas that are assigned for development in planning documents to exceed the actual development potential of the municipalities themselves.

Abstract This paper focuses on the notion of home as a narrative of one’s lived experience that clashes with planners’ understanding of housing and housing policies, using as a case study Shahriar County, located on the western fringe of the metropolitan area of Tehran. Following Heidegger, the feeling of home is a fundamental aspect of human existence. From this perspective, housing policies and spatial planning impact the sense of home in a geographical context. The empirical analysis is based on an overview of institutional changes since the Islamic Revolution in 1979, and interviews with inhabitants of Shahriar. The results indicate that Iran has developed a particular form of neoliberal, speculative model of urban development, in which urban segregation and seclusion and uneven regional development are noteworthy. Consequently, the sense of home is structurally undermined on the metropolitan fringe, generating a feeling of living on the edge of the world.

Abstract Culture shapes our basic sensory experience of the world. This is particularly striking in the study of religion and psychosis, where we and others have shown that cultural context determines both the structure and content of hallucination-like events. The cultural shaping of hallucinations may provide a rich case-study for linking cultural learning with emerging prediction-based models of perception.

Backgroud: The World Health Organization (WHO) explained that the number of Hyperemesis Gravidarum cases reached 12.5% of the total number of pregnancies in the world and the results of the Demographic Survey conducted in 2007, stated that 26% of women with live births experienced complications. The results of the observations conducted at the Midwife Supriyati Clinic found that pregnant women with hyperemesis gravidarum, with a comparison of 10 pregnant women who examined their contents there were about 4 pregnant women who complained of excessive nausea and vomiting. Objective: to determine the hyperemesis Gravidarum of pregnant mother in clinic. Methods: This study used Qualitative research methods by using a case study approach (Case Study.) Result: The description of excessive nausea of vomiting in women with Hipermemsis Gravidarum is continuous nausea and vomiting more than 10 times in one day, no appetite or vomiting when fed, the body feels weak, blood pressure decreases until the body weight decreases and interferes with daily activities days The factors that influence the occurrence of Hyperemesis Gravidarum are Hormonal, Diet, Unwanted Pregnancy, and psychology, primigravida does not affect the occurrence of Hyperemesis Gravidarum. Conclusion: Mothers who experience Hyperemesis Gravidarum feel nausea vomiting continuously more than 10 times in one day, no appetite or vomiting when fed, the body feels weak, blood pressure decreases until the weight decreases and interferes with daily activities, it is because there are several factors, namely, hormonal actors, diet, unwanted pregnancy, and psychology.

This paper addresses the fields of social and service design in development contexts, practice-based and constructive design research. A framework for social design for services will be explored through the survey of existing literature, specifically by drawing on eight doctoral theses that were produced by the World Design research group. The work of World Design researcher-designers was guided by a strong ethos of social and service design for development in marginalised communities. The paper also draws on a case study in Namibia and South Africa titled ‘My Dream World’. This case study presents a good example of how the social design for services framework functions in practice during experimentation and research in the field. The social design for services framework transfers the World Design group’s research results into practical action, providing a tool for the facilitation of design and research processes for sustainable development in marginal contexts.
