At the beginning of the 21st century, cities suffered from high traffic density and mobility problems due to rapid urbanisation and population growth. Bridges were built to encounter these challenges. As a result, the urban voids (urban spaces under bridges) have increased tremendously. In this study, a qualitative analysis was established to understand the negative impacts of urban voids focusing on under-bridges urban spaces. Furthermore, five criteria, as well as thirty-one sub-criteria were derived from the extensive literature and previous international experiences. Additionally, a quantitative analysis was conducted through experts’ interviews. Criteria and sub-criteria were assessed using the decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) to determine whether each criterion/sub-criteria belongs to the cause or effect group. Results indicated that the most important criterion was urban identity, as well as the most important sub-criteria belong to each criterion, were social services, investment diversity, sustainable recourses management, ICT-infrastructure, and urban integration.

Provisioning ecosystem services are under threat in peripheral areas in African cities due to urbanisation pressures. Previous studies have focused on land conversion and food crop production. How urbanisation pressures intertwine with the provisioning ecosystem services availability to peri-urban households is an empirical question, which this paper answered using Wa in Ghana as a case. The mixed method research approach was employed involving 400 randomly selected households with the aid of a questionnaire, while interviews were also conducted with relevant stakeholders. Descriptive statistics and a five-point Likert scale were used to analyse the household data, while interview responses were thematised. We observed that urbanisation adversely affected ecosystems, reducing the availability of wild fruits, fuelwood, and game to farmer households. From the households’ perspective, most of these services will disappear in the future as urbanisation intensifies. We recommend the restoration of degraded lands for the conservation of natural habitats.

ABSTRACT This paper explores the motivations behind urban climate governance in eight Swedish municipalities. The study demonstrates that political consensus among, and willingness of, urban political leaders is of importance for motivating climate actions. Municipalities are moreover motivated by the accomplishments of other cities, national and subnational policies, and an increasing climate concern in society. In line with previous research, individual policy entrepreneurs have been important for local climate action; however, with the adoption of national and subnational policies, local climate policies are becoming increasingly institutionalised. Although some of the conclusions of the study confirm the significance of a polycentric governance approach, little relevance was attributed to citizen participation. The institutionalisation of urban climate governance deserves further attention so as to better understand how the dynamics of polycentric governance can be affected, and what implications this may have on climate policy-making process, and the engagement and support of urban residents.

ABSTRACT Informal settlement is a global problem practised by all social classes. However, the extent and the context of the problem are serious in developing countries. The objective of this study was to identify the determinant factors for the escalation of informal settlements and their consequences in Butajira town, central Ethiopia. A mixed research approach with a sequential explanatory design was employed. Both qualitative and quantitative data were systematically collected and analysed using softwares like ArcGIS 10.3, ENVI 5.3, and SPSS. Primary data was collected through a household questionnaire survey from 221 samples and thirteen key informant interviews. Secondary data was also generated from different governmental reports, previous studies, and books. Employing a multiple linear logistic regression analysis, the empirical findings revealed that the informality was determined by a combination of factors such as monthly income, previous residence, mode accession of the respondent’s current holding, and brokers’ agitation as they were found to be statistically significant in determining the informality at a 95% confidence interval. It is found that informal settlements are expanded alarmingly in the study areas at the expense of the nearby agricultural fields. The effects are witnessed in the town resulting disorganised infrastructures and a spontaneous network of villages. The Municipality is engaged in preventive measures like demolitions and punishments but it did not bring any meaningful solutions. The researchers recommend the ‘punitive approach of marginality theory’ that insists on the forceful relocations of the informal settlers, but with the provision of adequate services

ABSTRACT Significant increase in the proportion of elderly and its expected further increase in the days to come draw attention of policymakers, practitioners, and researchers to enhance a community’s age-friendliness. Enhancement of a community’s age-friendliness requires appropriate policy implications recommended by various stakeholders based on Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) followed by Friedman’s rank test. Results showed that ‘safety and security’ has the highest priority amongst all the criteria considered for the assessment of age-friendliness. Based on Friedman’s rank test, community boundary with security check posts has the highest priority to increase safety and security of the community. A combination of policy measures having higher priority such as ‘police patrolling’, ‘mixed land-use urban planning’, and ‘accessibility to services’ could be the effective solution to increase safety and security of the community environment and foster independent living ability of its residents which in turn play important role in increasing age-friendliness of the community.

ABSTRACT There has been a tendency for debates around the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to focus on particular Goals or Targets. What tends to get lost, however, is the bigger picture. In this paper we ask: to what extent and under what conditions do the SDGs offer a pathway to equality? Specifically, we focus on the potentials of the SDGs as a pathway to urban equality in the decade of delivery. We focus on the ways that three key interrelated development agendas, eradicating extreme poverty, promoting prosperity, and building resilience, are mobilised through the SDGs. Together these agendas reveal tensions and opportunities in the relationship between the SDGs and urban equality. In discussion, we reflect on the potentials of an urban equality lens to read the SDGs, and the conditions under which they might contribute to the realisation of fairer and more equal cities.

ABSTRACT Several nations across the world place a high focus on achieving carbon reduction objectives. Climate change is the most catastrophic result of human activity. Eco-innovation, export diversification, and fiscal decentralization are all viable approaches for resolving environmental concerns and achieving environmental sustainability goals. These tactics could help countries and levels of government pursue what they consider to be sustainable development. This research assesses the combined impact of export diversification, green technical innovation, and fiscal decentralization in order to accomplish the environmental sustainability goals of the BRICS countries from 1970 to 2020. The long-run dynamic equilibrium between the chosen variables is explored using the augmented mean group (AMG) approach. The results show that while the use of green technology and renewable energy improves the environment, ecological harm is aggravated by export diversification, fiscal decentralization, and economic growth. The BRICS nations should exercise caution while implementing export diversification and fiscal decentralization programs.

ABSTRACT Transdisciplinary research has gained traction globally for mapping pathways for sustainable urbanisation. The involvement of local communities is believed to central to knowledge co-production needed to address sustainability challenges. But working with local communities can be challenging. This paper is structured around the authors’ personal reflections on undertaking transdisciplinary household energy conservation projects in Ghana and South Africa. The paper reflects on the assumptions and challenges of doing transdisciplinary research in urban Africa and suggests some guidelines for consideration when doing transdisciplinary projects. An inductive analysis of our reflections showed five key challenges: lack of integration, divergent problem identification, tensions in knowledge co-production, asymmetrical power relations, and distrust and managing expectations. We draw on our collective experiences to develop guidelines for conducting transdisciplinary research in urban Africa. These guidelines are not prescriptive but can be useful for a growing and broader audience interested in undertaking transdisciplinary research.
