Book excerpt: This book brings together technical expertise, best practices, case studies and ground-level application of the ideas for empowering the rural population of the world to live economically prosperous, environmentally sustainable, and socially progressive lives, on par or comparable with the quality of life enjoyed by the global urban population.

Download or read book A Do It Yourself Toolkit for Creating Smart Villages written by Ramkumar Sathurappan and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2024-04-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This toolkit was developed based on various pilots, prototypes, experiments, use cases, academic research, and documented failures and successes. The Smart Village Movement (SVM) that originated at UC Berkeley was rolled out in three states in India to reflect the diversity that exists in rural populations around the world. Our studies have shown that most villagers are aspirational, looking for empowerment and access to knowledge, education, and markets to better themselves and contribute to their local economies. Smart Villages promote a greener planet while Smart Cities may offer a variety of exciting experiences to fulfill our desires, but villages are a lifeline to humanity. Villages are a habitat in which lasting relationships with family and community can be nurtured. Here are some of the key concepts and terminology you'll encounter throughout this toolkit: What is a Smart Village? A community empowered by digital technologies and open innovation (OI) platforms to access global markets. What is our Vision? To increase the happiness of villagers by creating sustainable economies. What is our Mission? To empower rural people to build smart villages. What are our Values? Open innovation, co-innovation, collaboration and empowerment.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sustainable development is the core principle underpinning land use planning. The policies in this statement apply to the rural areas, including country towns and villages and the wider, largely undeveloped countryside up to the fringes of larger urban areas. The key principles identified are: (i) decisions on development should be based on sustainable development principles; (ii) good quality accessible development within towns and villages should be allowed where it benefits the local community; (iii) accessibility should be a key consideration, with emphasis on access by public transport, walking and cycling; (iv) new building in the open countryside away from existing settlements should be strictly controlled; (v) priority should be given to the reuse of brownfield sites. This PPS replaces PPG 7 (1997) with the exception of PPG7's Annex E, which provides further guidance on permitted development rights for agriculture and forestry and will remain extant pending a review by ODPM of the General Permitted Development Order 1995.

Download or read book Planning Housing and Infrastructure for Smart Villages written by Hemanta Doloi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-07 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some 7.3 billion people currently live on the planet. Of these, 3.4 billion live in rural areas. In just a few regions—Latin America, the Middle East and North Africa—less than 50 per cent of poverty is now located in rural areas. But for the rest of the world's regions between 55 per cent and 80 per cent of the poor continue to live in the countryside. Progress is being made, but much of the knowhow needed is not disseminated outside of a small coterie of professionals who work in the area. With urban development attracting a great deal of attention lately, poorer rural areas deserve the same and new knowledge for empowerment of rural communities is urgently needed. This book provides an overview of current thinking and practices that have emerged over the last thirty years for uplifting rural communities in developing economies. Drawing on a body of knowledge across a spectrum of relevant disciplines, this book provides a range of innovative ideas for rural planning, housing and infrastructure development. Governments in many emerging economies, where rural poverty is often most acute, have attempted to improve livelihoods. Approaches and techniques that have been used for urban development are often not applicable to rural communities. Studies show that money allocated for rural development is often not effectively spent due to distance, lack of infrastructure, lack of education, poverty and other factors. Meanwhile, the gap in development between the city and country continues to grow, sometimes leading to social and political instability, in both developing and developed countries. This book seeks to provide a guidebook for meeting such challenges. Through in-depth enquiry of global practices and thinking about rural development, and selected case studies, the authors argue that careful consideration must be given to incorporating issues of resilience, resourcefulness and the involvement of communities at grassroots levels in realising the transformation of rural settlements into Smart Villages.
