摘要

在贫民窟的空间里有许多利益相关者;他们的援助在多大程度上促进了贫民窟的管理,这方面的研究很少。本研究旨在考察外部利益相关者如何在加纳的背景下为贫民窟管理做出贡献。设计/方法/方法本研究采用利益相关者理论,对21名受访者进行了面对面的深度访谈,采用了探索性质的设计。根据加纳贫民窟治理的利害关系,有目的地从利益相关者组织和贫民窟居民中选择参与者。研究结果表明,利益相关者在住房、贸易、技能发展和能力建设等一般领域为贫民窟生计做出了贡献。研究表明,利益相关者的贡献往往会改善贫民窟的生活条件,并对地方议会产生积极影响。研究发现,贫民窟居民将利益相关者的贡献分为短期救济和长期解决方案。此外,在政策设计、实施和政策反馈方面,外部利益相关者在这方面支持政府。研究的局限性/意义研究得出的结论仅限于四个社区和利益相关者组织。然而,全球具有相似特征的社区可能会从这些发现中受益。实际意义本研究揭示了外部利益相关者在贫民窟领域的具体作用和援助。这为政府提供了关于加纳贫民窟治理中利益相关者合作的关键领域的指南。从理论上讲,这项研究为有关利益相关者对贫民窟整体治理的贡献提供了新的认识。独创性/价值本研究通过关注外部利益相关者扩展了贫民窟管理领域的知识前沿。这项研究不同于以往的研究,这些研究从更广泛的角度审视了利益相关者在贫民窟空间中的作用。

External stakeholders in the governance of slums in Ghana
Purpose In the space of slums are many stakeholders; the extent to which their assistance contributes to slum administration is sparsely studied. The study aims to examine how external stakeholders contribute to slum administration within the Ghanaian context. Design/methodology/approach Using the stakeholder theory, the study used an exploratory qualitative design based on face-to-face, in-depth interviews among 21 respondents. Participants were purposively selected from stakeholder organisations and slum residents based on the stake in slums governance in Ghana. Findings The results indicate that stakeholders have contributed towards slums livelihoods in the general areas of housing, trading, skill development and capacity building. It shows that stakeholders’ contributions tend to enhance slums’ living conditions and affect local assemblies positively. The study finds that slum dwellers categorise stakeholders’ contributions as short-term relief and long-term solutions. Additionally, it emerged that in the areas of policy design, implementation and policy feedback, external stakeholders have supported the government in that regard. Research limitations/implications The conclusion drawn from the study is limited to the four communities and the stakeholder organisations. However, communities with similar characteristics globally might benefit from the findings. Practical implications The study uncovers a context-specific role and assistance of external stakeholders in the domain of slums. This provides a guide to the government regarding key areas of stakeholder collaboration towards slum governance in the Ghanaian context. Theoretically, this study has contributed to new knowledge about stakeholders’ contribution to the overall governance of slums. Originality/value The study expands the frontiers of knowledge in the field of slum administration by focusing on external stakeholders. This study departs from previous studies, which have examined, in broader perspectives, stakeholders’ roles within the space of slums.
