Sanayileşme ile birlikte, kent nüfusunun hızla artması; doğal kaynakların bilinçsizce kullanımını, çevre kirliliğini ve bunun gibi birçok krizi beraberinde getirdiği bilinmektedir. Bu sebeplerden ötürü, kentleşme arttıkça sürdürülebilirliğin sağlanması gerektiği özellikle Avrupa ülkelerinin çoğunda farkındalık yaratmaya başlamaktadır. Avrupa’daki ülkeler; dünyanın en gelişmiş kentsel bölgelerini oluşturmasından dolayı Avrupa Birliği, kentsel sürdürülebilirlik kapsamında kentlerin düzenli gelişimine rehber olabilecek metinler ortaya koymaktadır. Kentlerde izlenen sosyo-ekonomik, siyasal ve çevresel politikalar; kentlerdeki göç, işsizlik, çarpık kentleşme, konut sorunu gibi toplumsal sorunlara sebebiyet vererek, Avrupa Birliği çapında düzenlemeleri gerekli kılmaktadır. Doğal kaynakların bilinçsizce tüketilmesi kentlerde; altyapı, ulaştırma, sağlık, trafik gibi sadece genel değil yerel sorunları da beraberinde getirmektedir. Kentlerde sürdürülebilirlik olgusu önem kazanarak, Avrupa Birliği’nin kentsel sorunları doğru bir şekilde değerlendirip bu sorunlara çözüm araması birliğe üye ülkelerin ilkesi haline gelmektedir
