  • Social Mobility and Green Open Urban Spaces with Special Reference to Cairo
    Wanas, A and Samir, E GBER Vol 10 Issue 1 Oct 2016 Article Social Mobility and Green Open Urban Spaces With Special Reference to Cairo *Ayman Wanas, Cairo, Egypt *Enas Samir, Cairo, Egypt Abstract Many rudiments and dynamics formulate the quality of life in cities; one of them is urban green space. Green urban area plays a vital role in improving the quality of life in cities, on the environmental level and social level as well. This paper examines the interrelationship between socio-economic mobility and the form, the use and the quality of green space with a particular reference to Cairo, Egypt. It also seeks to determine the critical factors in making those spaces up to user's expectations. The paper debates the notion of green urban spaces, development through time and the type of users in association with the socio- economic and political dimensions through a comprehensive literature review.
