This book was released on 2023-04-19 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book questions the role of liquid sanitation in the development of cities in Africa. The absence of sewerage networks and treatment plants in African cities already submerged by rapid and anarchic urbanization is a major problem. To meet this challenge, it is urgent to rethink urban water governance and impose and enforce sustainable urban planning standards. In other words, sanitation issues must now be placed at the heart of urban planning.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Face à la globalisation, les concepts de développement local et de gouvernance territoriale font désormais partie des paradigmes prioritaires du développement. Comment développer une relation de causalité positive entre une mondialisation qui suppose une gouvernance globale et un développement locale qui appelle une gouvernance territoriale ? Comment articuler l'approche de développement local conçue comme une démarche qui se veut collective et endogène, inclusive et participative, axée sur la construction d'un territoire restreint, avec la contribution de ce territoire au mouvement général du développement ? La vision du local peut-elle s'intégrer dans une perception du global sans compromettre la nécessaire dynamique qui doit réguler et rythmer les deux démarches appelées à être complémentaires, tant dans les stratégies que dans les agendas de réalisation? Présenté comme un modèle de développement alternatif, le développement local est devenu une référence et tend à s'imposer dans les discours de politique économique. Il place les acteurs au cœur de la gestion des territoires et nécessite la jonction avec de nouveaux espaces avec la mise en œuvre de nouveaux instruments de dialogue. C'est pour réfléchir et mettre en cohérence toutes les idées qui irriguent les discussions sur le développement local, la Gouvernance territoriale, la globalisation que le GERAD a réuni d'éminents experts dans les domaines du développement territorial, de l'aménagement, de la culture, pour jeter des regards croisés sur les enjeux et perspectives de ces problématiques. Le fruit de ces réflexions prospectives, dont l'essentiel est consigné dans ce livre, nous ouvre de nouvelles pistes et des perspectives qui préfigurent des projets de sociétés bâtis sur un ancrage entre le local et le global.

Book excerpt: This book discusses the future of rural development and the recognition of the growing importance of 'place-based economies' where the unique attributes and assets of individual places determine their attractiveness for particular types of activities and investments. New understandings of competitiveness and conceptualizations of a new economy underline the importance of making strategic investments in community infrastructure. Doing things, at the local and regional scales, matters and not doing things has consequences. Topics include seasonal economies, amenity migration, IT industries, green energy and transportation developments.
Download or read book Agroecological Transitions From Theory to Practice in Local Participatory Design written by Jacques-Eric Bergez and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-02-28 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Open Access book presents feedback from the ‘Territorial Agroecological Transition in Action’- TATA-BOX research project, which was devoted to these specific issues. The multidisciplinary and multi-organisation research team steered a four-year action-research process in two territories of France. It also presents: i) the key dimensions to be considered when dealing with agroecological transition: diversity of agriculture models, management of uncertainties, polycentric governance, autonomies, and role of actors’ networks; ii) an operational and original participatory process and associated boundary tools to support local stakeholders in shifting from a shared diagnosis to a shared action plan for transition, and in so doing developing mutual understanding and involvement; iii) an analysis of the main effects of the methodology on research organisation and on stakeholders’ development and application; iv) critical analysis and foresights on the main outcomes of TATA-BOX, provided by external researchers.
Download or read book Neoendogenous Development in European Rural Areas written by Eugenio Cejudo and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-01-01 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is one of the main outcomes of the projects “Development Programmes and Rural Change in the European Union: governance, results and lessons to share”and “Successes and failures in the practice of neoendogenous rural development in the European Union (1991-2013)”, funded both of them by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness. This publication aims, on one side, to clarify and deepen the knowledge of the social, economic and territorial effects of the LEADER approach, and, on the other, to analyze the importante of the participation of several stakeholders (young people and women) as well as some traditional activities –agriculture- or modern ones (tourism) linked all of them to the rich cultural and natural heritage of these areas. It also provides an in-depth study of the causes that lead to the generation of successful projects in the practice of neoendogenous rural development and also explores the reasons that cause certain projects to fail in the path towards LEADER support so that they are finally not implemented. In addition, it is shown the problems, results and best practices that cause the neoendogenous rural development in different areas inside of the European Union: Austria, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and United Kingdom. Thereby it helps to improve the decision-making in rural development, both on a local and regional scale. The multidisciplinary and international character of the authors, as well as the specificity of the research trajectory of each of them, in the analysis of rural development, enriches the publication and facilitates the different and critical reflections on the contributions, errors and meaning of the neoendogenous local development. Researchers in this discipline and technicians working in the practice of rural development along the European Union are the main audience of the book.
