DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis study contends that proper urban environmental management strategies are vital to the sustainable development of cities in any country. It demonstrates that cities as drivers of sustainable development can be positive forces in support of social equality, cultural vitality, economic prosperity and environmental sustainability. It takes a primary focus on Ibadan, Nigeria. Most cities in sub-Saharan Africa have become badly degraded. Leaders and planners rarely fully grasp the meaning of the concept of sustainable development, and fail to combine their bids to achieve economic development with urban environmental management strategies. The book describes how reformation and transformation are still possible, in Ibadan and elsewhere, and discusses the Sustainable Ibadan Project (SIP) as a methodology to turn Ibadan into a globally competitive and sustainable city. It will be of interest to urban planners worldwide, and to researchers and students of the Global South.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis study was set to assess how the impact of democratic processes on development of urban areas in Rwanda. It was very critical view of two concepts (Democracy and Development), and the argument was that while the two elements are organically inter-linked, they may not produce symmetrical results; however, I applied them to the Rwandan context, in urban areas especially in Kigali City, and the study finding was that the independent variable had an impact on the dependent variable. In other words, while an effective democratic process with good governance’s principles may provide a latent basis for development, it cannot grant it. There are many other factors that impinge on development, i.e. well elaborated project(s), ground realities, well implemented project(s) and well evaluated project(s), etc.
