| Abstract. The goal of the right to the city is to allow every citizen to equitably enjoy all its resources, such as housing, essential services, and public spaces, and Community Participation in urban decision-making that forms the city. The "World Charter on the Right to the City" was issued in 2005 due to numerous social and international organizations addressing the idea of the right to the city and creating initiatives to improve the city's urban life for all its people. According to the Charter, the right to the city is an inseparable principle from all internationally recognized human rights principles. Some countries have also embraced the concept of the right to the city, making them fundamental tenets of urban administration and planning. As a result, executive and legal tools now help put the concepts of the right to the city into practice. They do not, however, currently represent an integrated framework for urban indicators that can be relied upon to measure and then apply the right to the city system in any given case because of the novelty of the experience and the incompleteness of their application in the cases that adopted them, with the various aspects and approaches to application. The research aims to reach the construction of an integrated theoretical framework for general urban indicators from these various incomplete attempts, which can be used in future research to formulate a local framework that can be used to measure and apply the right to the city, especially the Egyptian city. To achieve this, this research relies on studying and analyzing the available literature - both conceptual and global experiences that have adopted the application of the right to the city - to produce a conceptual framework for urban indicators that express the right to the city. The scientific addition to this research is Extracting this framework - in its coherent form according to the results of this research from scattered groups and combinations of ideas and practices available in the literature. as building this framework contributes to measuring the extent to which the principles of the right to the city are achieved and provides those responsible for planning and managing cities with clear indicators and tools to start from towards applying the principles of the right to the city, each according to the specificity of his case. | ||||
