Book Creating Resilient Futures

Download or read book Creating Resilient Futures written by Stephen Flood and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-10-31 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access edited volume critically examines a coherence building opportunity between Climate Change Adaptation, the Sustainable Development Goals and Disaster Risk Reduction agendas through presenting best practice approaches, and supporting Irish and international case studies. The Covid-19 pandemic has highlighted existing global inequalities and demonstrated the scope and scale of cascading socio-ecological impacts. The impacts of climate change on our global communities will likely dwarf the disruption brought on by the pandemic, and moreover, these impacts will be more diffuse and pervasive over a longer timeframe. This edited volume considers opportunities to address global challenges in the context of developing resilience as an integrated development continuum instead of through independent and siloed agendas.

Book Community Regeneration Masterplan

Download or read book Community Regeneration Masterplan written by Francesco Manfredi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-01-01 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reports on a large research project on community regeneration, which integrated the spatial, social, economic and organizational factors with the dimensions of sustainability, resilience and participation. Upon providing a detailed review on concepts of community and urban regeneration, it analyses a set of successful case studies from 30 European cities, which were selected by the authors from different rankings and awards. Fifty-seven key performance indicators and the results of self-assessment questionnaires are here introduced to allow a comparative study of best practices and eventually to outline 20 guidelines and 100 strategic actions for future community regeneration projects. All in all, this book offers extensive information and a source of inspiration for urban planners, economists, sociologists, public administrators, stakeholders and all those involved in the development and management of sustainable cities.

Book Future is Urban  Livability  Resilience   Resource Conservation

This book was released on 2023-05-26 with total page 712 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cities have played an important role in our lives since the dawn of civilization. However, cities are slowly becoming overwhelmed and therefore intervention is desirable towards green, blue and egalitarian nature. Even with current urban issues, we must rise to the occasion as professionals to create cities that are social, cities that take care of the environment, and cities that are digital. Increased citizen participation is indispensable in this process. The ‘International Conference on Future is Urban (IFCU’ 21) Dec 16-18, 2021, Ahmedabad, India’, takes into account Livability, Resilience & Resource Conservation for planning Future and cities in future.

Book Guatemala

    Book Details:
  • Author : International Monetary Fund. Western Hemisphere Dept.
  • Publisher : International Monetary Fund
  • Release : 2018-06-08
  • ISBN : 1484360079
  • Pages : 73 pages

Download or read book Guatemala written by International Monetary Fund. Western Hemisphere Dept. and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2018-06-08 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 2018 Article IV Consultation highlights that a sound monetary policy management in Guatemala has helped keep inflation expectations firmly anchored. Fiscal deficits have remained at decade lows on the back of low debt tolerance and inadequate budgetary execution. Terms of trade gains and an upsurge in remittances inflows moved the current account into a sizable surplus. The financial system is sound and well-regulated while vulnerabilities seem manageable. Growth performance nevertheless falls shorts of the rates needed to achieve Guatemala’s aspirations to meaningfully lift the living standards of its citizens. Near-term growth prospects remain subdued, at 3.2 percent in 2018 and 3.6 percent in 2019.

Toward this end, we apply an innovative costing methodology to a sample of 155 countries: 49 low- income developing countries, 72 emerging market economies, and 34 advanced economies. And we refine the analysis with five country studies: Rwanda, Benin, Vietnam, Indonesia, and Guatemala.

  • Author : Chris Couch
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2017-08-24
  • ISBN : 1137427582
  • Pages : 340 pages

Download or read book Urban Planning written by Chris Couch and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-08-24 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a wide-ranging and internationally-focussed introduction to planning for the urban landscape. It provides an up-to-date account of planning, reflecting throughout on the need for sustainable, efficient and equitable solutions to planning problems. Taking account of the sometimes conflicting expectations of markets, citizens, public organizations and planners, it demonstrates the similarities of challenges faced in different national planning systems. The author traces the historical evolution of planning and urban governance, and explores the range of urban problems and policies likely to be found in almost any city in the developed world. Combining the latest theory in the field with practical insight and numerous illustrative case studies, the author comprehensively addresses issues of economic change and development; retailing and the role of urban centres; housing provision and neighbourhood renewal; urban design and conservation; green and blue infrastructure; and mobility and accessibility. Assuming no prior knowledge of the subject, this text is the ideal accessible introduction to the planning field, giving equal focus to both theory and practice. Whilst celebrating the work of planners, it also provides essential critical analysis of how key decisions are made and implemented, the benefits and limitations of planning, and ultimately its potential in achieving 'good city form'.

Book Urban Issues in Rapidly Growing Cities

Download or read book Urban Issues in Rapidly Growing Cities written by Mintesnot G. Woldeamanuel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-02-19 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book critically assesses the complex urban issues, planning challenges and development opportunities of rapidly growing cities, using Addis Ababa as a case study. Just like other developing cities, Addis Ababa is undergoing numerous natural and policy-driven changes. This book analyses the effect of these changes on urban management to allow better understanding of the conceptual frameworks that define the everyday functions of rapidly growing cities. It demonstrates that rapid urban growth has simultaneously created opportunities for economic development in the developing world as well as social, environmental and cultural challenges causing a mismatch between demand and the supply of services. The author argues that, by combining indigenous knowledge and practices and contemporary planning principles, developing countries can overcome challenges concerning environmental and public health, transport congestion, rising rents and house prices and lack of open space. Foregrounding the experience of everyday citizens of the city, this book aids our understanding of the nature of rapidly growing cities and outlines what needs to be done so that the city meets the needs of the people. A unique contribution to the literature on cities of the developing world, this book will be of interest to students and scholars of Urban Studies, Planning, Development Studies and African Studies.

Book United Republic of Tanzania

Download or read book United Republic of Tanzania written by International Monetary Fund. African Dept. and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2023-12-18 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The unfavorable global economic environment and domestic factors continue to weigh on Tanzania’s economic recovery. Growth rebounded during the first half of 2023 but is expected to slowdown in the second half amid headwinds from a weak global outlook and forex liquidity shortages. Inflation has moderated and is now well within the Bank of Tanzania’s target. The fiscal deficit was wider than expected in FY2022/23, largely reflecting shortfalls in revenue collections. A wide current account deficit for FY2022/23 and tighter external financial conditions resulted in pressures in the foreign exchange market.
