Abstract

Urbanisation remains a topical discussion across the globe. According to the United Nations (2022), 68% of the world's population will be absorbed in urban areas by 2050. The envisaged rapid urbanisation in cities by 2050 is believed to be accompanied by various planning problems, which include accelerated climate change, urban slums, urban sprawl, poor sanitation, inadequate infrastructure, overcrowding, housing deficiency and transportation issues. To mitigate these planning problems, the role of effective urban planning cannot be overemphasised. Urban planning provides a pathway for overcoming the various challenges posed by urbanisation both in the present and in the future. Urban planning is the process of guiding and directing land use for physical development to ensure a high quality of life and well-being of residents through the improvement of infrastructures and facilities, optimal economic development, and efficient operations and services (Bibri, 2018). Also, urban planning plays a significant role in actualising the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 11, which seeks to make human settlement inclusive and sustainable (RELX, 2024). This implies that with efficient urban planning, access to a high quality of life for all city dwellers can be ensured amidst the present and forecast rapid urbanisation that would be experienced by cities of the world. Planning as an ancient, multi-sectoral, and multidisciplinary discipline that is focused on the sustainable functioning and arrangement of space cannot be over-emphasized. As a discipline that is influenced by human habits, actions, policies and professional practices, planning (whether traditional or modern) is perceptual and suggests the role of humans in shaping settlements. Recognising this, the writing of Jagannath (2019) drawing on Clarence Perry neighbourhood ideology suggests that the need for planning is to be considered along a micro-level. The liveability of workplace and place of resident emerged from the view that NP was both a response to placelessness (along the micro planning unit of space) and response to the degenerated social and environmental conditions that emerged out of the industrial revolution. Neighbourhood planning according to Parker (2012) allows for a community based radical strategy to emerging spatial problem. The writer documented that neighbourhood planning provides a room for the merging of formal (government and agencies) ideas with the local or informal (community resident), such that a cooperation is able to achieve an inclusive neighbourhood defined solution to identified problems. Recognising this, Bradley (2018) wrote that where development policy may privilege the supposed objectivity of technocratic rationalism, participation brings other ways of knowing and different types of evidence and methods of evidence gathering to the understanding of place (p.2). He further wrote that participatory planning practice has been seen as a touchstone for the ability of technocratic knowledge to accommodate lay perspectives of lived space. The incorporation of place-based knowledge in development planning becomes integral to the epistemology through which abstract space is produced (p.24). In this special issue, the diverse nature of planning (with focus on urban and neighbourhoods) and environmental problems were addressed. The authors in the special issue provided a multi- and interdisciplinary approach to understanding planning and in fact neighbourhood planning as a tool to managing and achieving liveability amidst rapid urbanisation. In this special issue, from the twenty-one submissions and proposals, only thirteen were considered for publication. All the manuscript underwent a two expert blind review, plagiarism check and editorial reviews. The focus on the articles accepted for publication drew on local context to planning and responding wicked problems within local areas and the process of adopting immediate built-environment principles as captured in neighbourhood planning to managing these challenges that limits communal liveability. The importance of local context and ‘neighbourhood-ness’ of research draws on the position of Lee et al. (2022), that neighbourhood planning remains an under-utilised ideology, approach, and process of achieving community liveability. This issue, as presented in the section below, provides a critical eye and/or perception on the inter- and multidisciplinary prisms of neighbourhood planning as a sustainable approach to achieving liveable communities.

Abstract

Urban design is the art and method of shaping cities and communities; it plays a pivotal role in creating sustainable, liveable environments that cater to the diverse needs of residents. As urbanization continues to shape our world, integrating architectural education with a bottom-up approach to urban design becomes increasingly imperative. This paper explores the symbiotic relationship between architectural education and urban design, emphasizing the benefits of adopting a bottom-up approach toward creating sustainable urban neighbourhoods. This research aims to explore and understand the role of architectural education and urban design in developing a sustainable urban neighbourhoods in the case study of The Point Precinct in Durban, eThekwini, KZN. A bottom-up approach to urban design places communities at the heart of decision-making processes. Rather than relying solely on top-down, expert-driven solutions, this approach recognizes residents knowledge, aspirations, and needs when aligned with a bottom-up perspective, Architectural education teaches students to be active listeners, keen observers, and empathetic designers. This approach equips future architects with the skills to engage with communities, fostering a sense of ownership and co-creation in urban projects. The theoretical framework combines the concepts of sustainability, urban resilience, and the “right to the city". The methodology included data collection using a combination of spatial mapping at various levels, observations, and transect walks. By applying a mixed-methods approach, this study proposes a range of techniques drawn from multiple disciplines to deal with spaces needed to develop a sustainable urban neighbourhoods, allowing students to learn skills needed to create a bottom-up approach to urban design. The findings indicate how the approach will enable students to produce architectural designs that reflect the neighbourhood’s needs.

Abstract

The provision of services, encompassing substandard medical facilities, inadequate housing conditions, limited access to electricity, insufficient recreational amenities, and the absence of potable water supply, has emerged as a significant impediment confronting Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) both domestically and globally. The present investigation sought to evaluate the impact of service delivery on the welfare of IDPs residing in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja. The objectives of this inquiry were to assess the socioeconomic attributes of the IDPs, scrutinize the types and efficacy of service delivery within the IDP camps, and appraise the consequences of service delivery on the well-being of the IDPs in the research area. For this study, we selected a representative sample of 331 households to examine the households encompassing the IDPs. The data underwent statistical analysis employing the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). The findings unveiled the extent of deprivation endured in terms of essential amenities such as shelter, proper sanitation, reliable electricity, potable water, and adequate healthcare provisions. For instance, all participants resided in makeshift accommodations, including tents, plank houses, schools, and sack houses, with over 80% expressing concerns regarding security issues within the IDP camps. Consequently, this investigation concludes that the research area grapples with challenges encompassing food insecurity, personal security, criminal activities, fear of crime, poor health, limited educational opportunities, and precarious livelihoods, thereby augmenting vulnerability and diminishing the quality of life experienced by Internally Displaced Persons. Accordingly, the study offers recommendations advocating for comprehensive planning measures targeting IDPs in Abuja with the purpose of enhancing their well-being and overall quality of life.

Abstract

The study examined human activities contributing to the depletion of the Eleyele watershed. The activities have grown over time due to urban expansion through population growth and land and space requirements, resulting in rapid land use and land cover change. The study sourced both quantitative and qualitative data. A total of 247 pre-tested questionnaires were administered to randomly selected residents in the four communities (Eleyele, Ijokodo, Awotan, and Idi Osan) abutting the Eleyele watershed. In-depth interviews were conducted with the heads of Eleyele Waterworks, the Forestry Department, and the Oyo State Ministry of Agriculture and Natural Resources. We used Remote Sensing and Geographical Information Systems (GIS) to analyze the change in land use and landcover within the watershed from 1987 to 2019. Findings revealed that activities such as fuelwood harvesting, indiscriminate waste dumping, sand excavation, and housing construction, among others, accounted for the watershed encroachment and depletion. Temporal analysis of landcover change between 1987 and 2019 indicated that water bodies decreased from 1.6 km2 to 1.3 km2 in 2019, natural vegetation decreased from 24.8 km2 to 14.9 km2 in 2019, and built-up area increased from 8.9 km2 to 20.1 km2 as of 2019. There is an inverse relationship between urban expansion and the loss of vegetation cover within the watershed. Proposed strategies to secure the watershed and reservoir include the construction of perimeter fencing around the watershed, a public enlightenment campaign, and the reestablishment of protective vegetation in undeveloped areas within the watershed.

Abstract

This study examines the impacts of drainage infrastructure conditions on Mowe, Ogun State, residents. The study used a quantitative research design, using a systematic random sampling technique to select ten (10) residential estates (three public-owned and seven privately owned) in the study area. In all, 107 residents were sampled using a structured questionnaire. The data collected was analysed using descriptive statistics. Based on the findings of this study, it was evident that the surface drainage system, mainly constructed with sandcrete blocks, was predominant in the study area. The result established that the drainage's minimum height in the study area was 0.1524 metres, while the maximum was 0.889 meters. The analysis shows that the effect of flooding was mostly on properties (68.6%). Moreover, the majority of the residents agreed that drainage infrastructure had an impact on their living conditions. The study underscores the need for policy implications that could aid in the formulation of relevant policies by the Department of Flood and Erosion Control in the Ogun State Ministry of Environment towards improving the residents' quality of life and the environment.

Abstract

This paper examines the role of community partnerships and coalitions in the intricate and constantly evolving dynamics of communities in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Various aspects of the community context, such as socioeconomic conditions, geography, environmental factors, demographics, community politics, and cultural norms, often influence these community partnerships and coalitions. This study adopted the Community Coalition Action Theory as an organisational framework to examine the efforts of coalitions and partnerships in community-based research. The research applied a mixed-methods approach. This included a survey and individual interviews within the research organisation responsible for multiple community-based projects in rural and urban areas of KwaZulu-Natal, as well as in-depth interviews with project beneficiaries and senior government officials. An interpretative phenomenological analysis was applied to explore how contextual factors impacted partnership and coalition formation. Our results highlight the importance of community-based partnerships and coalitions in facilitating effective research initiatives that improve the quality of life in rural and urban communities. This study emphasises the importance of incorporating community voices into decision-making processes that impact their lives. Our findings provide insights into how partnership and coalition efforts shape the research process and why they are crucial for community-based research. The results also identify the types of partnerships required for successful research, community planning, and intervention implementation, along with the foundational principles and components needed for effective partnering. This paper advocates for strategic collaborations between academic institutions, government departments, and local communities. It highlights the critical influence of community politics, historical context, and cultural values during the research implementation phase. These findings offer guidance for improving approaches to community-based research implementation, ensuring that research comprehensively addresses the needs of rural and urban communities.

Abstract

The local wisdom that exists within a community plays a crucial role in influencing the thinking and conduct of the community. One local wisdom that contains a hydrological educational message that impacts community awareness in maintaining water hygiene and proper sanitation is the Irung-Irung Tradition by the people of Cihideung Village, West Bandung Regency. The objective of this study is to comprehensively examine and assess the components of water awareness within the Irung-Irung Tradition practiced by the people of Cihideung Village in the West Bandung Regency. This study involves a descriptive qualitative research design, including data collection methods such as interviews, observation, and literature review. The employed data analysis technique encompasses data reduction, data display, and conclusion. The findings of the study indicate that the element of water awareness in the Irung-Irung Tradition contained a philosophical meaning in the form of an expression of gratitude to God for a spring that never subsides, respect for the spirits of the ancestors, and strengthening the bonds of brotherhood among the residents of Cihideung Village. The Irung-Irung Tradition is an effort to enhance awareness and concern for the people of Cihideung Village about the urgency of water and sanitation management manifested in community service activities and cleaning springs and waterways. Therefore, the values in the Irung-Irung tradition are local wisdom that participates in realizing the sixth sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) related to water accessibility and proper sanitation.

Abstract

The need for a paradigmatic shift in city development ideology has become increasingly evident over the years. In response to this need, the Hangwurian City Development Model was developed to establish a connection between the concepts of environmental awareness, urban governance, and management. This model also integrates sustainable urban development, urban liveability, and inclusive physical development. The research sets a critical objective of analyzing the significant levels of various indicator variables. The exploratory research utilized partial least squares (PLS) via SmartPLS to evaluate the variables, collecting quantitative data through the open data toolkit from three selected cities: Lokoja, Minna, and Lafia in North-Central Nigeria. The study sampled 843 respondents across the cities, randomly selected among residents aged 18 years and older, with a focus on household heads as the unit of measurement. The research findings indicate that most of the examined variables have Cronbach's Alpha above 0.7, and most of the retained variables have a significance value greater than or equal to 0.7. The average variance explained by the indicators was very substantial, with most falling within the 0.5 to 0.6 range. Therefore, the research recommends that, due to the significance of the indicators and the validity of the internal and external data, this model can be applied as a procedural framework to guide city development on a regional scale. Consequently, it was concluded that for city development to progress and evolve without the issues that Hangwurian city development aims to address, it must be approached through the interconnectedness and significance of environment, governance, sustainability, liveability, and inclusion.

Abstract

As climate change continues to exacerbate weather patterns, flood susceptibility has become an increasingly pressing global concern. The susceptibility to floods is influenced by many contextual factors; as such, characterizing coastal neighbourhoods for the purpose of articulating susceptibility pathways is crucial for developing appropriate physical planning policies. The specific research objective seeks to assess the dimensions of neighbourhood characteristics that influence flood susceptibility in Kosofe, a suburban coastal community in Lagos, Nigeria. The data used were based on primary and secondary sources. Using a systematic sampling method, 324 respondents participated in the field survey. The result of the descriptive statistics, as reflected in the moderate (3.32) to low mean value (1.54) from the highest to the least ranked features, showed some level of inadequacies with the overall quality of the neighbourhood. Also, the outcome of the factor analysis identified two dimensions of neighbourhood characteristics in the study area: spatial configuration and amenities. Further analyses showed that the factors that significantly influence flood susceptibility within Kosofe are embedded within its spatial configuration. This implies that the layout of various physical attributes and features of coastal neighbourhoods has important implications for flood risk reduction. Considering features such as natural open spaces, flood gardens, drainage systems, waste management infrastructure, water supply, roads and street networks, flood barriers, and warning systems are vital in spatial planning to minimize flood susceptibility and enhance resilience in coastal neighbourhoods.

Abstract

Land surface temperature (LST) is an indispensable factor in studying urban climate. Ground-based measurements have been employed to quantify LST and Land Use/Land Cover Change (LULC). However, due to advancements in space technology and extensive spatial coverage, remote sensing techniques are increasingly being used to measure the intensity of LST and LULC dynamics, owing to the availability of enhanced satellite-based thermal observations of the Earth. The climatic conditions over a medium-sized city could be improved by understanding the interplay of LST and LULC. In this study, we estimated LST based on Landsat bands 4 and 5 for 1990 and 2000, band 6 for 2010, and band 10 for 2021 to reveal the interplay between the characteristics of land use and land cover and LST over Inisa and adjoining settlements. The study revealed that the maximum and minimum LST from 1990 to 2021 was 30.2°C for built-up areas and 21.1°C for farmland, respectively. Built-up areas increased from 2.5% in 1990 to 15.43% in 2021. Remotely sensed data can reveal the variability of LST and LULC to assess the climatic phenomenon. They can inform future planning to secure green and livable urban areas in this era of a changing climate.
