MOLINA-PRIETO, Luis Fernando; SUAREZ-SERRANO, Mónica  e  VILLA-CAMACHO, María Eugenia. Multidisciplinary Loop for Urban Sustainability. Rev. Arquit. [online]. 2019, vol.21, n.2, pp.76-88. ISSN 1657-0308.  https://doi.org/10.14718/revarq.2019.21.2.2048.

Accelerated growth of the urban population creates environmental, economic, and social problems, in which inputs require urban processes for their normal functioning (energy, materials, and water), in industrial, economic, and human aspects. Additionally, the outputs generated in the production of goods and services are recognized, which create a series of undesired externalities. The methodology included interdisciplinary work, divided into four phases: planning, literature review, interpretation of the results, and formulation. As a result, we present eight concepts that strengthen urban sustainability: closed loop, urban metabolism, industrial ecology, circular economy, value network, inverse logistics, environmental psychology, and eco-design, upon which a proposal to strengthen urban sustainability through a multifactorial model was created. The article concludes that to achieve urban sustainability, it is necessary to create connecting vessels between disciplines that directly affect the dynamics that give life to contemporary cities.

Palavras-chave : Resilient cities; inclusive development; sustainable urban development; urban environmental management; urban planning; environmental psychology.
