项目摘要

The focus of the research is the everyday life of children, young people and families living in spaces of New Urbanism in India. India's economic growth has been matched by rapid urban development in recent years; the urban landscape is being significantly re-modelled in line with the principles of New Urbanism - the creation of 'walkable,' diverse, inclusive, sustainable spaces where people will want to live both now and in the future. New large scale developments such as the case study community, Lavasa, are emerging to meet the demand for housing in the Indian context (c.300,000 residents). Future plans include the replication of Lavasa, providing homes to hundreds of thousands of families and individuals across the country, a move to attract individuals away from the clogged metropolitan cities of Delhi and Mumbai, to new urban environments. This research is a unique opportunity to gather empirical evidence of the day-to-day experiences, issues and needs of residents (children, young people and adults) living and moving through this new urban environment. The research is of international significance; current research into the lives of families in large scale, inclusive, sustainable communities is lacking, particularly in the context of an emerging superpower. The research predominantly uses qualitative research methods; however, an innovative mobile 'app' will be developed to further explore and map family mobility within the community. There are three interlinked strands to the research:Internationalising New Urbanism: Primarily, this strand aims to create a dialogue of exchange between those engaged in sustainable urbanism in the UK context (primarily those involved in the creation of 'sustainable communities', albeit on a smaller scale) and those creating new communities in India. What lessons can be learnt from applying the principles of New Urbanism (essentially American and European informed), are there specific design features and points of best practice which can be transferred between these communities and contexts? Sustainable design and mobility - everyday routines, transport and access: This strand will explore family mobility in the context of this new urban environment; a landscape which has been designed in line with principles of sustainability and effective transport use. How are residents moving through and interacting with their environment during their everyday routines? Given that its design has been planned so that 'all components of essential city life are located within walking distance,' is car use minimised within this context? Given the plethora of services and amenities Lavasa provides, how are these connected and used in the rhythm of everyday life? Efficient connectivity is a key principle of the urban infrastructure in Lavasa. This strand aims to explore the successes and limitations of Lavasa's connectivity.Nature and green space in a planned city: Following on from the previous objective, this strand aims to explore the impact of green and public space on the lives of children, young people and their families living in the community. Nature and green space are important and educational; they are interactive elements of the planned city. How are these spaces being used in the everyday life of residents? Are children and young people free to explore the nature and open space which has been planned into their neighbourhood?

研究的重点是生活在印度新城市主义空间的儿童、年轻人和家庭的日常生活。近年来，印度的经济增长伴随着城市的快速发展；城市景观正在根据新城市主义的原则进行重大重塑--创造出人们现在和未来都想要居住的“可步行的、多样化的、包容的、可持续的空间”。拉瓦萨案例研究社区等新的大型开发项目正在涌现，以满足印度的住房需求(约300,000居民)。未来的计划包括复制拉瓦萨，为全国数十万家庭和个人提供住房，此举是为了吸引人们离开拥堵的大都市德里和孟买，来到新的城市环境。这项研究是一个独特的机会，可以收集居民(儿童、年轻人和成年人)在这个新的城市环境中生活和移动的日常经验、问题和需求的经验证据。这项研究具有国际意义；目前缺乏对大规模、包容性和可持续社区中家庭生活的研究，特别是在一个新兴超级大国的背景下。这项研究主要使用定性研究方法；然而，将开发一款创新的移动应用程序，以进一步探索和绘制社区内的家庭流动性地图。这项研究有三个相互关联的方面：国际化的新城市主义：首先，这一方面的目的是在英国从事可持续城市化的人(主要是那些参与创建“可持续社区”的人，尽管规模较小)和在印度创建新社区的人之间建立一种交流对话。从应用新城市主义的原则(主要是美国和欧洲的知识)中可以学到什么教训，是否有特定的设计特征和最佳实践点可以在这些社区和背景之间转移？可持续的设计和机动性--日常生活、交通和交通：这一部分将在这一新的城市环境中探索家庭机动性；这是一种按照可持续性和有效使用交通工具的原则设计的景观。在日常生活中，居民是如何与周围环境互动的？考虑到它的设计已被规划为“城市基本生活的所有组成部分都位于步行距离内”，在这种背景下，汽车使用量是否最小？鉴于拉瓦萨提供了过多的服务和便利设施，这些是如何在日常生活节奏中联系和使用的？高效的互联互通是拉瓦萨城市基础设施的关键原则。这篇文章旨在探索拉瓦萨的连通性的成功和局限性。规划城市中的自然和绿地：在先前目标的基础上，这篇文章旨在探索绿色和公共空间对居住在社区中的儿童、年轻人及其家人的生活的影响。自然和绿地是重要的和有教育意义的；它们是规划城市的互动元素。这些空间在居民的日常生活中是如何使用的？儿童和年轻人是否可以自由探索社区规划的自然和开放空间？
