A new perception; generating well-being urban public spaces after the era of pandemics
Abstract
In the new pandemic era, the perception of urban spaces has been developed and the definition of well-being in urban public settings is ambiguous. The essay helps with theorizing the construction of urban public spaces and the health spaces influenced by green zones. We examine the relationships between public spaces and various challenges through an urban design lens, considering pandemics' involvement in the migration of urban areas as a transitional urban actor. We thoroughly map this phenomenon and assess the UN-Habitat core message on COVID-19 and public spaces, The concept of the 15 min minutes' city, and the determinants of health and wellbeing in neighborhoods. Furthermore, an imperial study was generated to find out the new stakeholders' perception for public spaces after the era of pandemics based on PESTEL analysis. Findings of Pandemics’ both negative and positive implications on different aspect, defines the new perception generating well-being urban public spaces after the era of pandemics.
