Why is it important?
The results showed that the understanding of a safe city programme could be differentiated through the lens of sustainability and resilience challenges, as well as their levels of prevention. Thus, the grey area of tertiary prevention strategies could be identified and strengthened.
Perspectives
I hope the framework of challenges facing safe city planning formed in this qualitative study could provide understanding to city stakeholders through the perspective of sustainability and resilience.
