Committee Chair signature: Elizabeth Riorden Designing by Community Participation: Meeting the Challenges of the Palestinian Refugee Camps A thesis submitted to the Division of Research and Advance Studies of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Architecture In the school of Architecture and Interior design Of the College of Design, Architecture, Art and Planning 2009 By Shadi Y. Saleh Committee chair Elizabeth Riorden Thomas Bible ABSTRACT Palestinian refugee camps in the West Bank, Gaza Strip, Jordan, Lebanon and Syria are the result of the sudden population displacements of 1948 and 1967. After 60 years, unorganized urban growth compounds the situation. The absence of state support pushed the refugees to take matters into their own hands. Currently the camps have problems stemming from both the social situation and the degradation of the built environment. Keeping the refugee camps in order to “represent” a nation in exile does not mean to me that there should be no development. The thesis seeks to make a contribution in solving the social and environmental problems in a way that emphasizes the Right of Return.

  • The Coastal Zone of Gaza Strip-Palestine Management and Problems
    The Coastal Zone of Gaza strip-Palestine Management and Problems Presentation for MAMA first kick-off meeting 11-13 March Paris By Dr. Mahmoud Ali Al Azhar University Gaza Palestine 1. Historical Background The coastline of the Gaza strip forms only a small section of a larger concave system that extends from Alexandria at the West Side of the Nile Delta, via Port Said, Bardawil Lagoon, El Arish, Gaza, Ashkalon, and Tel Aviv to the Bay of Haifa. This littoral cell forms the eastern corner of the Levantine Basin (Figure 1.1). This entire coastline, including the coastline of the Gaza Strip, has been shaped over by the sedimentation of the Nile River. Figure 1.1. Gaza Coastline in the Mediterranean Context Beach constructions as roads, restaurants, hotels and other buildings have been constructed, very close to and even right on the active part of the shore, thereby constraining the range of free space needed for the seawater dynamics. Recently after the construction of the fishing Port increased the need to protect the coastal zone of Gaza strip. 1 The coastal erosion is anther threat to the coastal zone. The flooding of ‘Wadi’ Gaza when happens may be increased the erosion rate and therefore effects the structure and the biodiversty of the coast. Constructions between Rafah at the southern border, and Gaza City there are no major coastal structures, which makes the biodiversity are little threatened. The coastline is sandy in most of the areas forming dunes particularly in the southern part. Kurkar cliffs are found between the mouth of ‘Wadi’ Gaza a Dier Elbalah.
