Disaster planning and preparedness : The case of Protea-South, JohannesburgTebid, Theophilus Nji 04 December 2008 (has links)
Despite increasing philosophical knowledge of disaster planning and preparedness,
disasters still remain a challenge in many communities. As a result, communities,
environment and economies remain considerably vulnerable and at the risk of disaster
destruction hence, sustainable development is undermined.
The purpose of this study is to review and assess the state of community readiness in
order to prevent and mitigate common hazards in the City of Johannesburg, especially
in previously disadvantaged communities such as Protea-South. A survey and
interviews was conducted with the local community members.
Results show that, this community like many others, is at high risk, due to their living
circumstances. e.g. the presence of densely built shacks on a flood plain; poor
hygiene and sanitation, pollution, poverty etc. There is therefore a need for a
paradigm shift by institutions from emergency response and the provision of hard
infrastructure to disaster prevention, preparedness and soft infrastructure provision by
means of an approach encompassing collaborative planning.

The role of collaborative planning in contaminated site redevelopment and plan implementationMarsh, Eric Lane 23 January 2012 (has links)
The following dissertation examines the role of collaborative planning in the redevelopment of National Priorities List Superfund sites and the implementation of Superfund site redevelopment plans. To examine the effect of collaborative planning, two models were constructed: one to predict Superfund site redevelopment and one to predict implementation of Superfund site redevelopment plans. Two test the two models, data was collected primarily from a survey of federal cleanup managers conducted between August 2008 and April 2009. Variables were then constructed and tested using bivariate and multivariate regression analysis. Results from the statistical analysis suggest that use of collaborative planning is positively and significantly associated with Superfund site redevelopment. Collaborative planning’s effect on Superfund site redevelopment plan implementation was inconclusive. To further explore the role of collaborative planning on Superfund site redevelopment and plan implementation, four case studies were developed that describe redevelopment planning at four Superfund sites. Overall, results suggest that collaborative planning is an important tool for the facilitation of Superfund site redevelopment. The effect of collaborative planning on plan implementation is somewhat ambiguous. Additional research is necessary, however, to draw firmer conclusions regarding both phenomena. / text

Planning In Ontario’s Far North: Preservation, development and culture in policyYOUDEN, Holly L. 25 October 2010 (has links)
Growing development pressure in Ontario’s Far North has prompted northern First Nation communities, who have recognized these potential outcomes, to initiate community-based land-use planning. In 2009 the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources (OMNR) announced Bill 191, An Act with Respect to Land-Use Planning and Protection in the Far North, to guide the planning process and promote a balance between conservation and development. The way the legislation develops and advances will be a determining factor in the degree of benefit to local communities.
This manuscript thesis explores the issues related to land-use planning in Ontario’s Far North, specifically the James Bay lowland region, through two articles. Information collected through participant observation, an extensive multi-disciplinary literature review, interviews with key policy actors and review of transcripts from Standing Committee hearings was combined to inform the development of both articles.
The first article explores the landscape to highlight the abiotic, biotic and cultural features of the region. This article provides a scoping exercise to begin to describe features that should contribute to the creation of the community-based land-use plans.
The second article critically examines the development of Bill 191 to guide land-use planning through policy, organizational and operational institutional levels from a First Nations perspective. Themes of power, social justice and participation in the planning process are central to the consideration of the emerging planning process. This review reveals a process that, instead of initiating a new relationship between the government of Ontario and First Nations, has contributed to increasingly acrimonious relations between the two. / Thesis (Master, Environmental Studies) -- Queen's University, 2010-10-25 12:37:47.676

Knowledge integration in watershed planning2015 May 1900 (has links)
Watershed planning and management relies on a diverse range of stakeholders. Collabora-tive planning can provide an opportunity for those stakeholders to equitably share their knowledge and learn from other participants, but such an outcome cannot be assumed. This re-search explores the potential for improved knowledge integration in watershed planning through research of a community-based watershed planning initiative in rural Saskatchewan, Canada. Us-ing semi-structured interviews and document review, this research identifies different knowledge types involved in watershed planning, explains how that knowledge is integrated through the planning process, and derives lessons for future watershed planning initiatives. Four general knowledge types identified in the analysis—bureaucratic, administrative, local, and scientific—were also evident in the literature. Specifically, this research affirms local knowledge characteris-tics—that it is spatially constrained, heterogeneous, generated through a relationship with place, and accrued over time—described in the literature. Results also reinforce claims that clearly de-fining boundaries between knowledge types is difficult and even undesirable. Differing from the descriptions in the literature of bureaucratic knowledge as including aspects of administrative knowledge, this research proposes that a greater delineation between the two is advantageous to ensure adequate knowledge is present to support the planning process. Two broad themes of how different types of knowledge influenced the planning initiative are presented: cooperation for long-term planning—highly influenced by administrative and bureaucratic knowledge; and set-ting and achieving goals—dominated by scientific knowledge as an ecological narrative through-out the process. These themes echo the collaborative planning literature on the importance of in-cluding as many knowledge types as possible throughout the process, while also revealing the necessity of ensuring that all participants are engaged in deliberations in order to contribute their knowledge. To meet this need, context-appropriate planning activities must be selected to sup-port collaborative planning; amendments to the planning process used in the community-based planning initiative are proposed to meet these needs.

Dancewalks : En fallstudie av alternativa stadsplaneringsmetoderAsplind, Anna January 2014 (has links)
Dancewalks är ett platsspecifikt danskonstverk skapat och uppfört i olika semioffentliga rum. Den här kvalitativa studien undersöker resultatet och effekterna av en Dancewalks i Malmö där 30 arkitekter och stadsplanerare deltog. Dancewalks är i sig själv ett performance vilket påverkar studien och därför också undersökningsprocessen. Det teoretiska ramverket utgår från Non representative theory och teorier om hur människor interagerar i rum. Tillvägagångssättet för studien är en triangulering av observation, fokusgrupp och semistrukturerade intervjuer. Studiens resultat visar att Dancewalks påverkar; hur deltagarna interagerar med platsen, hur deltagarna upplever platsen, deltagarnas uppfattning om hur platsen påverkar dem och deras medvetenhet om rörelsemönster. Studien kommer även fram till att Dancewalks kan användas som en metod för samhällsplanering såsom samverkansprojekt, intern och extern kommunikation och som ett verktyg att bättre förstå stadsrummet. / Dancewalks is a site-specific contemporary dance performance created and performed in urban spaces. This qualitative case study investigates the outcome of one Dancewalks performed in Malmö in which 30 architects and urban planners participated. The theoretical framework is within Non Representative theory and theories about human interaction in space. The method used in this study is a triangulation of observation, focus groups and non structured interviews. Dancewalks is in itself a performance, which has an impact on the study and therefore the research process. The study concludes that Dancewalks has an influence on; the way the participants interact with space, the participants’ perception of space, their perception of spaces’ impact on them and their awareness of movement patterns. The study also concludes that Dancewalks could be used as a method for urban planning such as collaborative planning, internal and external communication and as a tool to better understand urban spaces.

Learning to Burn, Burning to Learn: Transforming Professionals and Organizations through the US Fire Learning NetworkButler, William Hale 21 August 2009 (has links)
Since the 1970s, the institution of fire management has been in a frustrated transition from fire suppression and control to ecologically informed fire management. Administrative boundaries, professional specializations and organizational incentives and funding mechanisms have stalled the adoption of landscape scale ecological fire restoration as a guiding paradigm. Using a case study approach, this dissertation examines the potential of a multi-scalar collaborative network, the US Fire Learning Network (FLN), to catalyze the changes necessary to overcome the frustrated transition. Established in 2002 in an agreement between the USDA Forest Service, The Nature Conservancy, and the US Department of Interior, the FLN operates at landscape, regional and national scales. In this multi-scalar context, the network utilizes planning technologies, communication modalities, and interpersonal interaction to link participants at each scale and motivate them to enhance their collaborative ecological restoration planning capacities. The network directly addresses the challenges of the frustrated transition by enabling practitioners to collaborate across administrative and disciplinary boundaries, develop expertise in ecological fire restoration planning and management, and to inform policy changes at the federal level that can create new incentives and funding mechanisms that support landscape scale ecological restoration. While institutional transformation has yet to occur, the FLN sets the stage to address the core challenges that fire management practitioners and organizations face as they engage in landscape scale ecological fire restoration. This work provides theoretical and practical insights to collaborative planning research by introducing new forms of collaborative practice, describing how collaborative planning can be conducted across multiple scales simultaneously, and establishing how multi-scalar collaborative networks may be able to catalyze institutional change necessary to respond to complex cross scalar environmental problems. / Ph.

[en] COLLABORATIVE DEMAND PLANNING: INTEGRATION WITH IMPROVED OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE / [pt] PLANEJAMENTO COLABORATIVO DA DEMANDA: INTEGRAÇÃO COM MELHORIA DA PERFORMANCE OPERACIONALPRISCILA MARTINEZ DE SOUZA 12 September 2013 (has links)
[pt] Este trabalho acadêmico tem como objetivo oferecer um guia de
planejamento de demanda para uma indústria de médio porte por meio de
colaboração de várias áreas dos processos decisórios, tais como departamentos
chave da empresa, fornecedores e clientes. Propor metodologia formal para ajudar
no balanceamento da oferta e demanda, promover a troca de informações dentro e
fora da organização, otimizar o uso de recursos materiais e financeiros, e
consequentemente, melhorar o resultado do retorno sobre o investimento.
Observa-se no mercado que as pesquisas e práticas de planejamento colaborativo
de demanda são direcionadas apenas para as grandes organizações, deixando
assim as demais empresas sem referência. Logo, este trabalho tem a pretensão de
contribuir com as empresas de médio porte, oferecendo soluções adaptadas para
tratamento das causas das dificuldades e falhas de planejamento da demanda. A
dissertação baseou-se em estudo de caso, dados de fontes primárias extraídos de
sistemas de informação da empresa em estudo, entrevistas com funcionários
envolvidos neste processo, visitas in loco para observação direta, e pesquisas
bibliográficas que proporcionaram fundamento teórico. O foco da proposta de
melhoria fundamenta-se nos conceitos e práticas de Sales and Operations
Planning (SeOP) ou Planejamento de Vendas e Operações, como planejamento
colaborativo interno para melhoria da conexão das áreas funcionais da empresa. O
planejamento colaborativo externo para aperfeiçoamento da interface da empresa
com fornecedores e clientes completa a proposta por meio dos conceitos e práticas
adaptadas do Collaborative Planning, Forecasting and Replenishment (CPFR) ou
Planejamento Colaborativo, Previsão e Reabastecimento. / [en] This academic work is intended to provide a guide for planning demand
for a medium size industry through collaboration in various areas of decision
making, such as key company departments, suppliers and customers. This
Masters thesis proposes a formal methodology to assist in balancing supply and
demand, promotes the exchange of information within and outside the
organization, optimizes the use of material and financial resources and
consequently improves the return on investments. It is observed in market
research and planning practices thats collaborative demand is directed only to
large organizations, thus leaving other companies without reference. Therefore,
this work intends to contribute with midsize companies, offering solutions tailored
to treat the causes of the difficulties and failures of demand planning. The
dissertation was based on a case study data from primary sources drawn from the
information systems of the company under study, interviews with officials
involved in this process, site visits for direct observation, and literature searches
that provided theoretical foundation. The focus of the proposed improvement is
based on the concepts and practices of Sales and Operations Planning (SandOP),
and collaborative planning to improve the internal connection of the functional
areas of business. Collaborative planning for improving the external interface with
the companys suppliers and customers complete the proposal through the
concepts and practices adapted from the Collaborative Planning, Forecasting and
Replenishment (CPFR).

Cycling Policies for the Sustainable City : The Case of the City of SeoulChoi, Yoonjong January 2014 (has links)
This study explored the “sustainable city” by focusing on pro-cycling policies as a way to adapt theprinciple of sustainability to urban reality, as impacting the shape of the urban context and the lives of itsinhabitants. The case of the City of Seoul provided the opportunity to discuss potential and pitfallcharacterizing the implementation of pro-cycling policies, in light of the broader international contextoffering cases and examples that are here used as background for the analysis and interpretation of the case ofSeoul. This paper has two main parts. The first questions the key determinants of pro-cycling policies oftenproclaimed as “best-practices” in the field of cycling policies. It suggests that the overall level of cycling ismore related to government policies rather than history, culture, topography and climate. The identifiedgovernment policies have something in common. Firstly, cycling policies have evolved into an essential partof urban planning (cycling-inclusive urban planning). Secondly, they are created through the partnershipbetween the state, the private sector and civil society organizations based on the collaborative planninggovernance. Thirdly, policy components of hard and soft measures tend to be designed based on the needs ofthe great majority of citizens, particularly users. The second part explores the main causes of theshortcomings charactering pro-cycling policies in the case of Seoul. It argues that the main causes aredifficulties of achieving cooperation among different levels of government, the lack of opportunities forcitizen’s participation, the problems of hard components (cycling infrastructure) which is not based onpeople’s needs, unbalanced policy mixture of hard and soft components (non-infrastructural measures).Pro-cycling policies can play a significant role in achieving the sustainable city. To implement cyclingpolicies as a way of achieving the sustainable city, cultural and social shifts should be entailed. Theimplementation of pro-cycling can contribute to this cultural shift which is fundamental to the sustainable city.This is a cycle that has to be turned into a virtuous cycle leading to the city and urban community towardssustainability. However, if the created cycling policies are not based on the partnership and collaboration withvarious stakeholders, they are not likely to get society-wide support, meet the needs of users, and thus reachthe targeted goals. This is also true of Seoul. Even though the City of Seoul set up ambitious goals andinvested a lot of city budget, it could not achieve the desired aims. As a novice in pro-cycling policies, it isinevitable for the city experience trial and error. To reduce trial and error and develop more suitable policies,the city needs to explore best practices of cycling policies around world and adapt them to the local context.

Preserving Place: A Grounded Theory of Citizen Participation in Community-Based PlanningHatley, Pamela Jo 01 January 2013 (has links)
For this research project I used grounded theory methodology and qualitative research methods to examine how and why citizens participated in local community-based planning and land development entitlement processes, and learn about their experiences participating in those processes. I conceptualized the citizens' main concern as preserving the character of the place they consider their community. This research demonstrates that citizens participate in community-based planning and land development entitlement processes out of a concern for preserving the character of their communities. They define the character of their communities in terms of their geographic boundaries, history, traditions, people, lifestyle, and qualitative features including land uses, architecture, terrain, and environmental attributes. "Preserving Place" refers to citizens' efforts to maintain the character of their communities as they know and embrace them.
Citizens participate in collaborative community-based planning because they believe the process affords them an opportunity to set public policy that directly impacts their lives and their communities. Likewise, citizens participate in land development decision-making and entitlement processes in an effort to ensure that land use decisions are consistent with their community plan and preserve their community's character. Citizens form networks, such as voluntary community organizations, through which they organize their efforts and mentor each other to learn about complex local government land use processes and how to participate in them effectively. Through their network organizations citizens also marshal resources when necessary to mount formal legal actions in response to land development decisions they perceive as inconsistent with their community plan and their community's character.
Citizens who participate in local government land use processes are often pejoratively called "activists" and accused of being "anti-growth" or "NIMBY" (Not-In-My-Back-Yard). However, this research shows the main concern of citizens who participate in the community-based planning and other land use processes is not to oppose growth and development in their communities; but rather to plan for growth and development and ensure they occur in a way that respects and preserves what the citizens know as the character of the places they consider their communities.
I collected data from public records of community-based planning workshops and other land use decision-making processes that affected three communities in Hillsborough County, Florida between 1998 and 2011. I analyzed public record archives and interviewed 22 citizens, all of whom had participated in community-based planning or plan review processes and land development entitlement processes. The model that emerged from the data in this research demonstrates how significant the character of a community is to the people who embrace the community and consider it their home, and how their concern for preserving the character of their community motivates people to get involved in land use policies that affect them. The model further demonstrates the capacity of citizens to organize their efforts to defend and preserve their community's character.
This research contributes to the literature on citizen participation by providing an explanatory model that demonstrates how and why citizens participate in local government land use processes. This research can also be applied to practice to improve collaborative processes and help local government land use policy makers and land developers understand the motivations behind citizen participation in land use processes, and thus how to approach the resolution of conflicts among citizens, planners, local governments, private landowners and land development interests.
