THE ROLE OF COMMUNITIES IN IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF LIFE IN SETTLEMENTS - COORDINATION OF GLOBAL AND LOCAL PERSPECTIVES IN EDUCATION

Summary/Abstract: Residents and communities living and working in settlements are interconnected in many different ways (they work, go to school, engage in leisure activities, etc.), and their boundaries can be delineated and differentiated according to various relevant aspects, and a basic identity assigned to them. All people, taking into account their individual circumstances, strive to achieve the "best". The nature of the settlement, its management culture, and its location within the given country or region are decisive factors in terms of how the individual feels about their current residence and how they judge the livability of the place. The livability of settlements, a concept defined in socio-economic and environmental terms, is a key element in sustainable urban development and regional planning, involving different factors in different contexts. The well-being of the population, the development of the local economy, the accessibility of community infrastructure and aspects of maintaining environmental quality all play a relevant role. The integration of these factors into urban planning and development programmes is a priority, as liveability is a complex, interdisciplinary phenomenon that affects not only the physical environment but also the quality of social relations and economic opportunities. The analysis therefore goes beyond the condition of a settlement's infrastructure or economic indicators to include an analysis of the subjective experiences of its inhabitants or the interactions between local communities. Livable settlements typically provide an environment where economic opportunities and social security are balanced, promoting sustainable development and long-term population retention. Primary social relationships meet basic human needs, going beyond family and marital ties, but relatively few studies have addressed the nature of these relationships. The young age group deserves special attention, as their attitude is no longer characterized by being tied to one place; they are keen to travel, they are mobile in their work, they look for other ways and opportunities if their needs are not met; they take jobs abroad and settle down. Due to the rapid development of communication technology, a wide range of occupations can be accessed from almost anywhere and work can be done in its entirety. It also means that there is no need to move to a big city for instance, - not liking the challenges of city life – as the job can be done in a more remote, quieter, calmer environment. On the other hand, it can also mean that the individual settles far away from the original home, looking for the best ways to meet its needs.
