Abstract

Starting from the 20th century, research aimed at making cities more resilient to urban shocks has come back into focus in terms of urban health after the Covid-19 pandemic. Studies conducted to better understand this urgent global threat and to seek urban solutions primarily aim to reveal the various relationships between the diverse qualities of urban spaces and the Covid-19 pandemic. This is because crucial aspects such as the occurrence, spread, and control of infectious diseases vary depending on the conditions that cities offer. In this context, making cities more resilient has become crucial to ensuring the sustainability of public health. This study has developed an index that demonstrates the resilience of Turkish cities in the face of the Covid-19 pandemic. According to the findings, the southern regions of the country were less affected during the pandemic compared to the northern regions, attributed to the natural, social, economic, and spatial conditions they possess. The validity of the index was evaluated by applying a geographically weighted regression model that conceptualizes the spatial relationships of this distribution. Contrary to comparison of cities on number of cases approach during the outbreak, the proposed index in the study contributes to the literature by enabling the determination of cities' resilience against pandemics based on various indicators during the times that the world does not experience any pandemic threat.

Özet

20. yy.’dan itibaren kentlerin şoklara karşı daha dayanıklı hale getirilmesi maksadıyla yapılan araştırmalar Covid-19 salgınının yaşanması sonrasında yeniden gündeme gelmiş ve bu defa salgınlar ve kent sağlığı bağlamında yeniden tartışılmaya başlanmıştır. Küresel ölçekte insan yaşamını tehdit eden bu acil durumu daha iyi anlayabilmek ve kentsel anlamda çözüm arayışları ortaya koyabilmek adına yapılan çalışmalar, ağırlıklı olarak kentsel mekânların çeşitli nitelikteki özelliklerinin Covid-19 salgını ile çeşitli şekillerde ilişkisini ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır. Çünkü salgın hastalıkların meydana gelmesi, yayılımı ve kontrolü gibi birçok önemli husus kentlerin sunduğu koşullara bağlı olarak değişmektedir. Bu bağlamda; toplum sağlığının sürdürülebilirliğini sağlayabilmek için öncelikle kentleri daha dayanıklı hale getirmek oldukça önemli bir durum haline gelmiştir. Bu çalışma ile Covid-19 salgını karşısında Türkiye kentlerinin dayanıklılığını ortaya koyan bir indeks geliştirilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgulara göre salgın döneminde ülkemizin güney kesimlerinin sahip oldukları doğal, sosyal, ekonomik ve mekânsal koşullar sebebiyle kuzey kesimlerine göre daha az etkilendikleri görülmüş ve bu dağılımın mekânsal ilişkilerini modelleyen coğrafi ağırlıklı regresyon modeli tekniği uygulanarak indeksin geçerliliği değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışmada geliştirilen indeks, salgın sırasındaki vaka sayılarının dağılımlarından bağımsız bir şekilde, kentlerin çeşitli göstergelerde değişen özelliklerine bağlı olarak salgınlar karşısındaki dayanıklılıklarını tespit edebilmeye olanak sağlaması ile literatüre katkı sağlamaktadır.
