Download or read book Why Planning Does Not Work Land Use Planning and Residents Rights in Tanzania written by Jonas Nnkya and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2007-10-15 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lack of transparency and accountability in the planning practice allow for misuse and abuse of the planning system to serve the interests of the more powerful and influential groups, including those entrusted with the powers of planning. The outcomes of a non-inclusive, non-transparent and insensitive planning include: insecurity of land tenure rights and subsequently investments in land; poverty; informal land subdivision and building; unplanned spatial growth and endless conflicts in land development. These are detrimental to the residents and erode their trust and confidence in the government. It takes an organized, informed, confident and courageous group of residents or community to reject the non-inclusive form of planning and cause adoption of inclusive and collaborative planning that allows them space in the planning process. The achievement of such an organized group ? a turn towards democratic planning practice ? leads to a conclusion that informed, organized, confident and courageous civil society is a pillar of democracy. This book therefore argues that ineffective planning results, among other things, from defective land policy and legislation, and planning inability to recognize and make use of opportunities for shaping the built environment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urbanisation is an issue in Tanzania not only because of its lack ofsocial and economic significance but also because of its high growth rateand lack of effective mechanisms to manage its outcomes. Dar es Salaam alone is said to receive between 100,000 to 300,000 people a year. Most of these migrants live in unserviced parts of the city, which threaten their lives and health. The six contributors assess not only the complexity and specificity of the dynamics of Tanzania's urbanisation process, but also the many problems and opportunities inherent in this process.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mount Kilimanjaro is one of Tanzania's most consummate symbols. Interest in Mount Kilimanjaro dates back to the nineteenth century, when epic excursions by scientists, explorers and missionaries kindled controversy, envy and unquenchable desire; and the mountain became a prototype of colonial exoticism. Contemporary preoccupations with the mountain as an essential ingredient of national identity and of Tanzania's self-image are in some senses attempts to recapture what has been stolen. Moreover, as part of the legacy of both Chagga farmers and Maasai shepherds, it is both an image of agricultural toil, and of traditional pastoral values. It has become a psychic landmark for collective identity, permanence, heritage and memory. It possesses an outstanding wealth of national resources, and thus embodies the exceptional ? as a symbol of comparative wealth, precocity and enterprise incarnate, set in the heart of one on the poorest countries in the world. The growth of international travel has turned Mount Kilimanjaro into one of East Africa's major tourist attractions. This expansion has produced a degree of ambivalence. It is a commercial and profitable undertaking, but based on a reductive image of the cultural heritage. It is an opportunity for economic development that may yet undermine biodiversity. Developmental and environmental inequalities on the already unequal mountain are key vectors in its social and spatial reorganisation. This beautiful book of essays and photographs explores the multifaceted real and imagined natures and features of the mountain from various perspectives: literary, historical, environmental, sociological, geographical and regional; and from three different continents: Africa, North America, and Europe. The study was a Tanzanian-French collaborative project between the Geography Department at the University of Dar es Salaam, an environmental research group at the University Michel de Montaigne-Bordeaux, and the French Institute for Research in Africa (IFRA) in Nairobi.

Download or read book Reimagining Urban Planning in Africa written by Patrick Brandful Cobbinah and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-12-21 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses urban planning in Anglophone, Francophone, and Lusophone Africa, exploring its history and advocating for new approaches. In a climate changing world, cities need to be reimagined and designed to be more sustainable, but despite being one of the fastest urbanising continents, Africa has generally weak urban planning systems. The chapters adopt multi-disciplinary and transdisciplinary approaches, combining insights from urban studies and policy sciences, emphasising existing gaps, particularly in decision-making, planning practice and inclusiveness, to offer an in-depth analysis of urban planning in Africa. The authors advocate for the reimagination of urban planning, debating new institutionalism, digital infrastructure, climate urbanism, gated communities, and smart mobility. The chapters provide both theoretical and practical contributions, and advance thinking, policymaking, and implementation of sustainable urban planning approaches in Africa, thus making the book indispensable for advanced students, researchers, and practitioners alike.
