Abstract :Since the publication of the December issue of the EKSEN JFA, critical agendas both in the country and in the world have shown that as professionals and academics in the field of urban planning and architecture, we have a lot to say and a lot of responsibility to take. As a preliminary matter, we would like to extend our heartfelt condolences and wishes for a speedy recovery to those who have suffered losses of life, loved ones, and residences as a result of the earthquakes that occurred on February 6, 2023. The losses we have experienced due to the earthquake have necessitated a re-evaluation of our professions, particularly in regard to the application and inspection procedures. Nevertheless, epidemic conditions, the effects of which we have not yet been able to eliminate, climate change, where seasonal norms are lost and whose effects are increasingly catastrophic, social, and spatial problems, migration, and urban transformation processes that develop along with it continue to be other important agenda items. This issue also overlaps with similar agendas and also presents research in areas such as transportation, infrastructure, housing, preservation, and building materials. This issue includes eight research articles and three review articles. This issue of EKSEN JFA is indexed by several international indexes. We have also submitted the journal for evaluation by the TRDizin index and eagerly await the results. Our goal is to achieve recognition from international field indexes for our future issues and we strongly encourage submissions, especially in English. Finally, as Co-Editors, we would like to thank our technical editorial team, journal boards, referees, and authors who contributed to the publication of this issue. We hope you a pleasant read.Keywords : Mimarlık, Şehir ve Bölge Planlama, Editoryal, Eksen MFD
