Abstract: To safeguard the physical and mental health and welfare of vulnerable people, through case studies and evidence-based research, the paper will explore various strategies for fostering safe, sustainable, and inclusive living spaces to promote the health and well-being of these vulnerable populations. This applies to everyone, especially children, people with disabilities, and the elderly, who are more vulnerable to the harmful impacts of a dangerous, unsustainable, and exclusive living situation. Their physical well-being depends on having access to clean water, sanitary facilities, and suitable housing. In contrast, their psychological well-being is enhanced by having opportunities for social interaction and leisure activities. Homes, structures, and public areas must be inclusive, accessible, and barrier-free for people with disabilities. Elderly persons require community services that enable them to age in place with dignity and independence and accessible and affordable housing.
Keywords: Physical well-being, psychological well-being, environmental degradation, vulnerable population, sustainability.
