dc.description.abstractAI-GENERATED ABSTRACT: Abstract The global refugee crisis presents a pressing humanitarian challenge, with over 82 million forcibly displaced people worldwide. Refugee camps offer temporary shelter for displaced individuals, but their interior spatial planning and zoning pose significant challenges. Proper planning can ensure access to basic needs and promote safety and security. This research aims to investigate factors and design considerations that optimize the interior space design and planning of private spaces in refugee camps. The study employs a qualitative approach, utilizing a multiple case study design focused on Al Za'atari and Azraq refugee camps. The research includes a comprehensive literature review, analyzing layout, furniture, lighting, ventilation, and space use. The findings contribute to improving living conditions and well-being for refugees in these camps. Keywords: global refugee crisis, interior spatial planning, private spaces, refugee camps, humanitarian challenge, case study, layout, furniture, lighting, ventilation, well-beingen
