摘要

本文的目的是评估环境经济实践在发展中国家得到认可和实施的程度,并特别强调尼日利亚的建筑部门。设计/方法/方法为了检查意识和使用的程度,采用了定量研究方法,向尼日利亚的建筑专业人员分发了封闭式问卷。收集到的数据使用各种统计技术进行分析,如百分比、频率和平均得分。此外,为了调查被调查者的意见是否存在显著差异,我们采用了Kruskal-Wallis h检验。研究结果表明,尼日利亚建筑专业人员对环境经济实践的认识和实施水平有限。根据这项研究的结果,提出了一份建议路线图,以促进尼日利亚建筑业采用环境经济实践。执行这些建议有助于减少建筑活动对环境和公共卫生的负面影响,并有助于可持续城市、社区和社会的发展。实际意义本研究的结果可以通过深入了解尼日利亚建筑专业人员对环境经济实践的知识和意识水平,为政策和决策提供信息。独创性/价值本研究的结果为评估尼日利亚建筑专业人员对可持续实践的知识和意识水平提供了基线,这可以为未来关于培训和意识项目有效性的研究提供信息。

From awareness to action: a study of the effectiveness of environmental economic practices for sustainable construction in Nigeria
PurposeThe purpose of this article is to assess the extent to which environmental economic practices are recognized and implemented in developing countries, with a specific emphasis on the Nigerian construction sector.Design/methodology/approachTo examine the extent of awareness and usage, a quantitative research approach was adopted with close-ended questionnaires disseminated to construction professionals in Nigeria. The collected data were subjected to analysis using various statistical techniques such as percentages, frequencies and mean scores. Furthermore, to investigate any significant differences in the respondents' opinions, the Kruskal–Wallis H-test was applied.FindingsThe study's findings indicate that the level of awareness and implementation of environmental economic practices among construction professionals in Nigeria is limited. Based on the findings of this study, a roadmap of recommendations has been proposed to promote the adoption of environmental economic practices in the Nigerian construction industry. The implementation of these recommendations can help reduce the negative impact of construction activities on the environment and public health and contribute to the development of sustainable cities, communities and societies.Practical implicationsThe outcomes from this study can inform policy and decision-making by providing insights into the level of knowledge and awareness of environmental economic practices among construction professionals in Nigeria.Originality/valueThe findings from this study provide a baseline for assessing the level of knowledge and awareness of sustainable practices among construction professionals in Nigeria, which can inform future studies on the effectiveness of training and awareness programs.
