Abstract

This study assessed educational facilities in the Osogbo metropolis, Nigeria, aiming to evaluate the available educational facilities, examine student and staff satisfaction levels, and analyze their availability across schools in the area. The sample consisted of 476 schools, from which 73 were randomly selected. A multistage sampling procedure was employed to sample 1,863 pupils/students and 87 teachers for questionnaire administration, complemented by observation. Data were analyzed using Mean Weighted Average, Summation of Weighted Value, and Analysis of Variance. Findings showed that 63.4% of primary schools had the listed facilities, while 75% of secondary schools reported 81% availability. Public primary school students reported a mean satisfaction level of 2.48, compared to 3.17 for private school students. Private secondary school students reported a satisfaction level of 3.84, against 2.57 for public school students. Staff satisfaction levels were 1.85 (public primary), 3.19 (private primary), 2.21 (public secondary), and 3.43 (private secondary). Variations and inadequacies in facilities across schools were established. F-ratios yielded p<0.05 for all variables except science laboratories/rooms, indicating significant differences. The study concluded that educational facilities were inadequate, and both students and staff were dissatisfied with the condition of the facilities. It recommends strengthening monitoring agencies to improve school supervision and education delivery.

Abstract

The concept of livable communities has become increasingly significant in regional planning, aiming to improve the quality of life for residents. Despite continued investment in critical infrastructure in developing countries, the enhancement of livability has not kept pace with infrastructure development. This study investigates the impact of crucial infrastructure on community livability, utilizing a holistic single case study approach with Colombo as the case study. The relationship between critical infrastructure development and urban livability serves as the unit of analysis. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with ten subject matter experts and analyzed using manual content analysis. The research finds that the availability of essential services—education, healthcare, transportation, energy, and communication—constitutes the foundation of a livable community. However, compared to its availability, inadequate attention to the quality and proximity of critical infrastructure is a fundamental reason for not achieving livability objectives in developing nations. The study identifies four aspects of proximity (residential, workplace, transportation, and emergency services) and seven aspects of quality (reliability, timeliness, safety and security, accessibility, efficiency, effectiveness, and customer satisfaction) as crucial for attaining livability standards. A key insight is the lack of consideration for community perceptions of critical infrastructure development in developing countries, hindering urban livability efforts. The study suggests Community-Driven Needs Assessment (CDNA), Participatory Budgeting, Community Infrastructure Committees, Crowdsourced Design Challenges, and Knowledge Sharing Platforms as strategies to enhance community involvement in planning critical infrastructure. It recommends further empirical research in similar contexts to evaluate the effectiveness of these approaches.

Abstract

Informal settlements, often characterized by inadequate infrastructure, housing, and services, are a significant urban challenge in the global South. Creating well-functioning and supportive neighborhoods within these settlements is crucial for improving the living conditions and livelihoods of those living there. This paper explores the strategies and principles of creating neighborhoods in informal settlements that promote community empowerment, social cohesion, and sustainable development. Conventional top-down development approaches often fail to address these settlements' unique needs and dynamics. In contrast, a bottom-up approach empowers residents, fosters community engagement, and promotes sustainable development. This paper explores how architecture can respond to the needs of informal dwellers and be used as a tool to empower them. Synthesizing architecture and informality through an understanding of the existing socio-spatial dynamics, culture, economic networks, insurgent practices, and approach to the production of the built form of informal settlement communities can produce a more responsive architecture capable of increasing informal settlement communities' resilience to site-specific challenges, improving their quality of life, and ultimately aiding them towards their hopes and aspirations. The theoretical framework combines the concepts of Culture, Insurgency, and the "Right to the City." The methodology included data collection using a combination of spatial mapping, observations, transect walks, and focused group interviews. The findings revealed the dynamics of the settlements, which could only be mapped and understood from firsthand experience of walking and learning from the community. The communities' needs and threats were mapped. This formed the basis for an architectural approach to stitch and create sustainable neighborhood design.

Abstract

The study examined the socio-economic effects of the Orisumbare sawmill industry on the residents of Ikire, Irewole local government area of Osun State. The objectives of the study include, examination of the socio-economic characteristics of the respondents, the positive effects of industry on the residents, the negative impacts of industry on the residents, and the perceived environmental-induced diseases caused by industrial activities. A case study research design was adopted, while both primary and secondary data were utilised. A multistage sampling technique was used, in which a buffer zone of 900m radius was made to delineate the zone of industries’ influence. This was later stratified into three zones, and a household head found in each of the residential buildings within the zone was randomly selected. A questionnaire was administered to 261 household heads in the sampled buildings. The collected data were analysed using both descriptive and logistic regression. Orisumbare sawmill had a positive significant impact on the residents of Ikire (F = 0.858). Sawmill activities have a significant effect on the socio-economic lives of the residents. Cottage industries should be harnessed in order to explore their opportunities, since the resources are not fully utilised.
