1) The EcoBlock project proposes a sustainable housing development model for China that is self-sufficient in terms of energy, water, and waste management.
2) It aims to address the significant environmental impacts of China's current "Superblock" developments, which place major demands on infrastructure, by creating neighborhoods that generate their own renewable energy and recycle water and waste on-site.
3) The EcoBlock concept has the potential to substantially reduce China's environmental impacts if implemented on a large scale, saving resources like drinking water and preventing pollution of rivers and landfill overuse.

Amman 2025 From Master Plan to Strategic Initiative | Amman Institute Amman Institute
The Greater Amman Municipality set out in 2006 to replace its outdated 1987 development plan with Amman 2025. Due to rapid development pressures, the plan shifted from a traditional 20-year master plan to a more flexible strategic growth initiative. Rather than a long planning phase separated from implementation, analysis and legislative interventions occurred closer together. Extensive engagement with professionals and municipal staff also distinguished Amman 2025. The plan aimed to accommodate 4 million new residents by 2025 through infill, densification, and limiting expansion, while concentrating large developments in designated high-density zones. The short timeline of under two years reflected the urgent need to guide Amman's growth.
The document provides information about the location and context of the Abdali project site in Amman, Jordan. The site is located in the heart of Amman, giving it regional importance.

Jordan’s New Urban Landscape: Achieving Inclusive Urban Planning | Amman Ins...Amman Institute
This document summarizes a research project assessing the impact of urban development projects in Jordan on local residents. The research will analyze perceptions of development at the macro, meso, and micro levels. It will use surveys, focus groups, and interviews to gauge how inclusive planning initiatives have been from the perspective of specific interest groups and whether local needs have been met. The results are intended to provide the first analysis of inclusive urban planning in Jordan and lay the groundwork for future comparative research in the Middle East. The project timeline is June 2010 to May 2011.

After its success in implementing “Smart Growth” capacity building modules conducted in the summer for planners from Palestine and Iraq, Ai is partnering with UNHABITAT on a new capacity building project. This project will deliver a series of multilayer interactive training modules aiming at building capacity for the Iraq Local Government Association (ILGA) and government officials who are involved in the urban planning efforts in Iraq.
The project‘s outcomes are compromised of two day training modules: The first module “Executive Training on Good Governance and Smart Growth Planning” is targeting the ILGA members. The other module “Smart Growth Planning”is targeting the government and municipal planning staff. Each module provides hands on experience and is adapted to some extent to the local Iraqi context. Each module also encompasses lectures, guest speakers, exercises, readings in Arabic, and site visits.
Regulations updated for HDMU (arabic & english) | Amman InstituteAmman Institute
This document presents the key principles for the reference conditions of implementation plans. It introduces a project for a comprehensive zoning plan for Amman, noting that a livable city is an organized one with a spirit. It defines terms like HDMU (High Density Mixed Use) areas and development lots. It establishes that the policies and provisions of this special provision and attached HDMU areas planning documents take precedence over other zoning regulations, where conflicts arise.
The document outlines an interim growth strategy policy for high density mixed use development in Amman, Jordan. The policy was developed in response to a request from the King of Jordan to prepare a master plan for Amman. The goal of the interim policy is to accommodate immediate demand for high density projects while protecting the vision for the future master plan. The policy identifies suitable areas for high density development and provides guidelines for projects related to environmental sustainability, urban design, infrastructure, public spaces, and governance.
