Effective integration across policy domains and between spatial scales is indispensable in dealing with the inherently complex process of formulation implementation at all levels. In this paper, we examine key features Ghana's planning system focusing on mechanisms challenges practice. We show that a combination path dependence recent reforms has inevitably created two distinctly separate systems: an established Development Planning System newly instituted Spatial System. Under notion...
Environmental challenges associated with stormwater management, including flooding, droughts and depleting water quality, are exacerbated in urban areas. Despite growing expertise policy advocacy for alternatives to conventional management approaches, Ghanaian cities, like many cities developing countries, have not adopted governance principles mainstream green infrastructure (GSI). There is very limited research which examines the barriers mainstreaming GSI their nuances within context....
This paper explores the enabling governance conditions for implementing green stormwater infrastructure to transform waterways. Using Australia's largest integrated management project in Adelaide's River Torrens Catchment as a case study, we explore four key dimensions and their shifts over time: actors, rules of game, discourse, resources power. Overall, 11 enablers emerged from these dimensions. These include collaboration coordination, bipartisan support, regulation enforcement, knowledge...
The study of technology acceptance is a constantly developing field, perhaps, resulting from the ever evolvement new technologies. Models and theories have been developed to address determine user behaviour. adopted UTAUT model, which considered parsimonious comprehensive because its eclectic nature. thus examined critical predictors behavioural intentions relationships that exist among predictor variables in ICT adoption context University for Development Studies, Tamale Ghana. surveyed 100...
The United Nations Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction (SFDRR) highlights the importance of local governance and proactive response in disaster risk reduction. Eight years into SFDRR's adoption, there is a limited assessment principles shaping management by institutions. This study examines influencing flood prevention preparedness Kumasi Metropolis, Ghana. Using qualitative data, we first framed as institutional measures (PIMs) analysed six key indicators. Secondly, assessed eight...
ABSTRACTAccess to housing data in Ghana has been a challenge for researchers due the lack of comprehensive sources. However, recent availability big sources presented opportunities bridge this access gap. Using Greater Accra as case, study uses web scraping techniques acquire publicly available from two major E-commerce websites and explores Metropolitan Area's (GAMA) prevailing market. Spatial autocorrelation statistics show clustering high median prices known high-class neighborhoods....
There is limited academic research on the interplay between spatial planning and partisan politics, particularly within context of Africa, where it argued that institutions are not mutually exclusive from political influences. This study a contribution towards addressing this gap. It presents comprehensive analysis discussions state as captured by manifestos in Ghana time window Fourth Republic. Specifically, employs self-explanatory four-stage framework to analyze manifesto documents two...
