| Abstract: | Following a study of factors contributing to the present urban built environment in Malta, the salient characteristics were mapped out in a standard format, applied for all participating countries. This document highlights the principal findings for Malta, in an overview analysis as ‘The Needs’ of the urban built environment. |
| Description: | Although no direct references to Malta’s table of summarised needs was made in this paper, the same table may be viewed either independently or as part and parcel of this paper. No political reference was intended, nor any direct criticism of Malta’s leading authorities was deliberately made. The underlying goal was to highlight the current needs with a view towards truly improving the performance of the urban built environment in Malta. |
