Résumé
Cet article vise à évaluer la capacité d'un site à répondre aux besoins des personnes âgées en matière d'urbanisme et a pour vocation d'aider les urbanistes dans l'usage de l'espace urbain.
L'objectif général de l'étude est d'identifier les besoins spécifiques des personnes âgées dans deux échantillons de deux pays, l'Égypte et l'Espagne, et d'élaborer un plan d'accessibilité pour répondre à leurs besoins. En outre, l’étude vise à promouvoir les objectifs de développement durable visant à garantir une vie saine et le bien-être à tous les âges et à rendre les villes inclusives, sûres, résilientes et durables.
La recherche s'est basée sur l'analyse de la littérature et des documents d'archives existants, ainsi que sur place, à travers l'observation et la documentation photographique, lors de l'enquête en Espagne et en Égypte. L'étude a utilisé une méthodologie comparative pour comparer les espaces publics dans deux régions de deux pays, l'Égypte et l'Espagne. La méthode de recherche comprenait deux étapes principales : la sélection des zones d'étude, la collecte et l'analyse des données, et l'identification des principales caractéristiques des espaces publics dans les zones d'étude. Les zones d'étude sélectionnées pour la recherche sont Sheikh Zayed en Égypte et Castelló en Espagne.
Les résultats ont montré que les deux échantillons ont une bonne planification urbaine et offrent un meilleur accès aux espaces publics. Cependant, les résultats sociaux à Castelló étaient plus élevés qu'à Sheikh Zayed, car le nombre de personnes âgées à Sheikh Zayed est relativement faible par rapport à Castelló. Dans l’ensemble, l’étude souligne la nécessité de garantir des conceptions qui tiennent compte de l’environnement physique des personnes âgées afin de garantir leur sécurité et la réalisation des ODD.
