Resumo

This article examines the sustainability of the spontaneous neighborhood of Boudghene located in the city of Tlemcen. Empirical data were collected through a questionnaire distributed to 370 individuals. The sustainability assessment was conducted using a variety of sustainable development indicators, which allowed for the creation of a minimal dashboard providing a clear picture of the situation in the studied neighborhood. The results clearly indicate that this spontaneous housing exhibits some aspects of sustainable development but requires significant efforts to strengthen them. Therefore, the findings suggest a holistic approach to address the multifaceted sustainability issues affecting the neighborhood within the framework of the country's development policy.
