This book focuses on the practice of Urban Environmental Management
(UEM) in developing countries, which both face more immediate
problems than the developed world and have fewer resources to deal
with them. It is the report of a graduate level workshop that took
place at the School of Planning, College of Design, Architecture,
Art and Planning, University of Cincinnati, USA from August through
December 2013. The objective of the workshop was to prepare
students to work overseas in data-poor environments as professional
consulting planners. Several lectures were given to set the
framework for the class of 18 students to operate in sector-level
working groups or teams preparing a 5-year plan to help solve the
urban environmental problems of Mysore, India, utilizing a
real-world data base and a limited budget. This project formed the
majority of class work culminating in the completion of this
professional quality document.
