Abstract

Günümüzde yaşanan hızlı kentleşme ve dünya çapında şehirlerin karşılaştığı zorlukların artması, İnsan Kaynakları Yönetiminin (İKY) sürdürülebilir kentsel kalkınmayı teşvik etmedeki rolünün daha önemli hâle gelmesine neden olmuştur. Bu doğrultuda araştırmada, sürdürülebilir kentler inşa etmeyi amaçlayan İKY stratejilerine ilişkin mevcut literatürün kapsamlı bir incelemesi sunulmaktadır. Bu bağlamda, Google Akademik, Web of Science (WoS) ve Scopus veritabanlarında “İnsan Kaynakları Yönetimi” ve “sürdürülebilir şehirler” üzerine yapılan çalışmalarda öne çıkan bulgular, detaylı bir literatür taramasıyla sunulmuştur. Araştırma, kentsel sürdürülebilirlik için İKY'deki temel temaları, eğilimleri ve en iyi uygulamaları belirlemek için akademik makaleler odaklı çeşitli kaynaklardan elde edilen bilgileri sentezlemekte ve etkili İKY stratejilerinin; nüfus artışı, çevresel sürdürülebilirlik, sosyal sorumluluk ve ekonomik dayanıklılık gibi kentsel zorlukların ele alınmasında çok önemli bir rol oynadığını ortaya koymaktadır. Ayrıca araştırma, İKY stratejilerini daha geniş kentsel gelişim hedefleri ve politika çerçeveleriyle uyumlu hâle getirmenin önemini vurgulamakta ve sürdürülebilir kentsel büyümeyi teşvik ederek şehir sakinleri adına yaşamın kalitesini artırmayı hedefleyen İKY yaklaşımlarını uygulamak için devlet kurumları, örgütler, akademi ve sivil toplum arasındaki iş birliği ihtiyacını vurgulamaktadır. Bu literatür incelemesinden elde edilen bulgular, aynı zamanda sürdürülebilir şehirler inşa etmede İKY'nin rolünün daha derinlemesine anlaşılmasına da katkıda bulunmaktadır. Bu nedenle araştırma, daha sürdürülebilir bir kentsel çevre yaratmayı amaçlayan insan kaynakları (İK) profesyonelleri, politika yapıcılar ve şehir planlamacıları için pratik çıkarımlarda ve geleceğe yönelik önerilerde bulunmaktadır.

Sustainable Human Development and Human Resource Management Strategies in Building Sustainable Cities

Abstract

While the context of rapid urbanization and increasing challenges faced by cities worldwide, the role of Human Resource Management (HRM) in fostering sustainable urban development has garnered significant attention. This paper presents a comprehensive review of existing literature on HRM strategies aimed at building sustainable cities. Thus, a detailed analysis of the prominent findings of studies on “human resource management” and “sustainable cities” in Google Scholar, Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus databases was presented by a literature review. The review synthesizes insights from a range of sources including academic articles to identify key themes, trends, and best practices in HRM for urban sustainability and reveals that effective HRM strategies play a crucial role in addressing urban challenges such as population growth, environmental sustainability, social inclusion, and economic resilience. Furthermore, the review highlights the importance of aligning HRM strategies with broader urban development goals and policy frameworks and emphasizes the need for collaboration among government agencies, businesses, academia, and civil society to implement integrated HRM approaches that promote sustainable urban growth and enhance the quality of life for urban residents. The findings from this literature review also contribute to a deeper understanding of the role of HRM in building sustainable cities. Therefore, this paper concludes with recommendations for future research directions and practical implications for human resource (HR) professionals, policy makers, and urban planners seeking to create more sustainable urban environment.
