Abstract:
Korea is again entering an era of local autonomy. After General Park Chung Hee seized power through a military coup in 1961, Korean local governments did not have substantial political and administrative decision-making power for 30 years. During an earlier period of the Republic, under the 'Local Autonomy Law' of 1949, Korean local governments had been locally formed policy-making assemblies whose members were locally elected by the inhabitants. For some time in that period even the chief executives of the local governments were elected by the area residents. In 1961, however, the military governments adopted the so-called 'Law Concerning Temporary Measures for Local Autonomy', which suspended the functions of all local assemblies, and the administrative heads of local units became appointive. Following that decision, local governing functions were controlled by the Ministry of Home Affairs- and the respective provincial governors who were appointed by the President. There was, therefore, essentially no political decentralization at all in Korea from 1961 to 1991 (Jung, 1987: 526). In 1991, however, the local assemblies were reorganized. In addition to the locally formed assemblies, the chief executives of local governments were elected directly by residents in 1995. These direct elections have enabled the Korean local governments regain their nominal political decision-making power. In practical terms, however, there still remain a substantial number of central controls in the central-local government relationship.

Abstract:
Globally, urban sustainability is shifting its focus from individual building to sustainability at precinct, neighbourhood and community levels. This dissertation aims to determine whether the South African urban development industry has a need for the introduction and incorporation of a precinct level urban sustainability rating tool. This dissertation employs a literature review and single case study approach to define precinct level urban sustainability, to explore existing sustainability initiatives and to investigate the expected impacts of a South African precinct level urban sustainability rating tool. The research finds that while there ha been interest in precinct level sustainability from the private sector and some leading municipalities, precinct level sustainability runs the risks of becoming nothing more than a political catch-phrase and of becoming stuck in an ongoing cycle of planning, especially from a national regulatory point of view. It is expected that the introduction of a South African precinct level sustainability rating tool will mitigate this situation by providing motivation for the adoption of, and a clear guideline for the physical implementation of, wider sustainability principles and objectives.

Abstract:
The extractives sector has the obligation to contribute to sustainable development in areas where resource exploitation occurs. Fulfilling this expectation is challenging in resource-dependent towns, that are periodically exposed to boom-bust dynamics. In northwest British Columbia, several large Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) terminal projects have been proposed, involving high capital costs and several thousand workers for the construction phase. Indigenous Peoples are often negatively affected by such large developments, as their culture and sustenance is tied to the land and water. Many of these peoples are also unable to benefit from such developments, due to a lack of support mechanisms and the necessary training or education required for good paying jobs. This study investigates how large resource developments can contribute to sustainability in B.C. First Nations communities by finding ways to enhance benefits and minimize impacts from boom-bust dynamics. Two socio-economic surveys were conducted with the Kitsumkalum First Nation, which is one of the Tsimshian Tribes potentially affected by LNG developments. Additionally, 31 interviews were conducted with LNG, mining, government, economic development and First Nations representatives, from which common themes were identified and ranked. Results showed that although high school graduation rates (16% to 34%), university education rates (4.5% to 7.3%), and unemployment rates, (29.2% to 17.2%) have improved for on-reserve Kitsumkalum members between 2006 and 2016, many continue to struggle economically. Education, training and employment (ETE) was collectively ranked by all interviewed sectors as the most important for First Nations to move towards a sustainable future, while all sectors individually ranked ETE as No. 1, except for First Nations, who ranked the removal of social barriers as No. 1 and ETE as No. 2. The need for good governance to roadmap effective changes was ranked No. 2, while the need to remove social barriers was ranked No. 3 by all sectors. In light of these results, a new framework was proposed, which incorporates the need for community characterization, a strategic sustainable development plan, good governance, and improved shared decision making and partnerships, in order to better facilitate sustainable development of Indigenous communities within the context of large-scale resource developments.

Abstract:
Zunehmender Massenwohlstand ging im Verlauf der industriegesellschaftlichen Entwicklung mit wachsender Beschleunigung, Entrhythmisierung und Zeitverknappung einher. Gerade im Denken und Handeln des 20. Jahrhunderts nehmen Zeit und Geschwindigkeit eine immer dominantere Rolle ein. Dabei wirkt das zeitdynamische System der Ökonomie verzerrend auf die zeitplastischeren Systeme der Umwelt, der Gesellschaft und des Individuums ein. Im Zuge des in Japan bereits Mitte der siebziger Jahre begonnen Zeitwettbewerbs befinden sich zahlreiche Unternehmen verschiedenster Branchen in folgender trilemmatischer Situation: Dem durch ein geeignetes Lokalisieren zeitbeanspruchender, ökonomischer Aktivitäten "natürlich" generierten Bedarf nach Zeitstauchung (Zeiteinsparung) zur schnellen Produktentwicklung und Markteinführung steht die Notwendigkeit der Zeitdehnung für aufwendige, immer komplexere Forschung und Entwicklung und Produktionsvorbereitung gegenüber. Das Problem der optimalen zeitlichen Navigation wird zusätzlich durch die Turbulenzen des wirtschaftlichen Umfeldes verschärft. Neben ökonomischen Komplikationen (z. B. Beschleunigungsfalle) lassen sich in zunehmendem Maße Pathogenesen der Öko- und Sozialsysteme beobachten. Die offensichtliche Notwendigkeit zu einer zeit- und geschwindigkeitsoptimalen Revision lässt sich sowohl mit physikalisch-thermodynamischen als auch systemtheoretischen Mitteln untermauern. Zur Zeit stattfindende Sensibilisierungsprozesse und Paradigmenwechsel (z. B. Trend vom Produkt zur Dienstleistung, Eklektizismen, Leapfrogging etc.) können für diese Umorientierung ein günstigeres Klima schaffen. Entschleunigungskonzepte der Langlebigkeit und der Beachtung der systemischen Rhythmen und Eigenzeiten sind ein Schritt in die richtige Richtung. Essentiell für die Marktfähigkeit nachhaltiger Geschwindigkeiten ist jedoch eine Änderungen der Rahmenbedingungen.

Abstract:
Sustainable Built Environments Senior Capstone Project
Rapid urbanization has profoundly reshaped societies, economies, and the natural environment. Urban populations currently sit around 80% and 40% for developed and developing countries respectively with cities accounting for nearly all future population growth. The impacts of urbanization are vast lending to low density areas, traffic congestion, automobile reliance, pollution, and biodiversity loss. Sustainable development is essential to maintaining the integrity of the world with current and future anticipated levels of urbanization. Mixed-use developments or those which combine three or more integrated revenue producing uses are a form of sustainable development which can help mitigate the negative effects of urbanization. Benefits of mixed-use include pedestrian and bicycle friendly areas, place-making, increased revenue, and reduced automobile reliance and pollution. This research attempts to determine the most successful form of mixed-use development in downtown Tucson, Arizona. This study boundary was chosen because downtown Tucson is in a state of revitalization and it is important to analyze how developers and the City of Tucson are making use of land. For the purpose of this research a case study analysis was performed on three mixed-use developments, the Cadence at Congress Street and 4th Avenue, One East Broadway at Broadway Boulevard and Stone Avenue, and the Mercado San Agustin at Congress Avenue and Avenida del Convento. Each development was examined and rated based on economic, social, and environmental success. All three developments scored fairly similarly but the Cadence scored the highest with low operating costs, the creation of a high volume jobs, and a location near transit and pedestrian and bicycle friendly areas.

Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 121-128).
The emergence of the sustainable development concept at the end of the 1980s triggered the intensification of the environmental sustainability discourse in urban design and planning. The vision of sustainable urbanism includes calls for limitations to urban growth, protection of sensitive areas, compact design, clean forms of transportation, low impact building construction, use of renewable resources, and healthy agreeable living environments. While there is growing agreement on the necessity of making sure that new developments comply with these mandates, there is less to say about how to do so. This thesis explores the planning processes underlying three new neighborhood developments in Sweden and Germany broadly regarded as exemplary green developments. I find that the implementation of the sustainable urbanism vision was possible through a municipality-led process with direct control of the land use, built form, and resource supply through legally binding instruments such as detailed plans and development contracts; the consistent build-up of technical capacity in both the public and private sector; and an openness to learning and adaptation. The findings confirm that local government authority in Sweden and Germany still largely reflects the notion of the benevolent state, and suggest that such a role is important for the endorsement of the value-laden notion of sustainability. Transferability of the lessons in the US context depends on the creativity of solutions that will need to tap on latent potential in the public and private sector and research institutes.

Abstract:
Urban housing developments face growing pressure from the public and regulatory bodies to be more sustainable in their built form, energy and water consumption. This is currently achieved through application of better building design and implementation of various technologies to reduce environmental impacts. However the aspects of food production and wastewater treatment and reuse, are not common aspects of these new developments in Western Australia. Designing these features into new residential developments could bolster resiliency, whilst also decreasing the net ecological footprints of these sites, and urban areas as a whole. This projects focus is to the fundamental limits of nutrient cycling, derived from wastewater, to produce food in new urban developments. Variables of waste nutrient inflows of phosphorus and nitrogen were the primary focus, but factors of locality, water, energy and community acceptance were developed. The paper presents system metrics appropriate for the case study; Landcorp’s White Gum Valley (WGV)a residential urban development in Perth Western Australia. Key findings of the study showed urine separation offering the most beneficial method for nutrient reuse for food production in new residential urban developments. The modelled case study of a urine reuse system giving a potential food production output satisfying 3.5% of the population's total dietary metabolic energy needs, this being 98% of the recommended vegetable intake for the population. This production potential projected to be achieved with a capture of ~40% of the total populations production of urine and utilising 0.25ha of land area. With a number of assumptions, ~44000MJ/Y and ~935kl/Y of energy and water respectively may be saved from the implementation of such a system. The proposal of closed containment of urine throughout the separation and reuse scheme, alleviates odour issues before application, and reduces human pathogen and virus exposure risks. Payback periods of such a system are projected to be>24 years though are highly dependent on the marketability of food produce grown with human wastewater. The feasibility of such a project with marketability of produce will require further market investigation; however the value of creating closed loop nutrient cycles goes beyond financial gain, and is suggested as a way forward in creating sustainable urban developments.

Abstract:
Business practices have and will continue to greatly influence and determine the shape and viability of the built environment. Traditional practices have continued to use non renewable and polluting resources such as fossil fuels, and these are rapidly becoming unviable and unacceptable within the built environment. As an alternative to these traditional practices, concerned building practitioners are applying best practice initiatives in the-belief that these produce sustainable outcomes. The research titled 'A study of the Lithgow New Government Office Development; Using Best Practice to Deliver Sustainable Developments' is based on the hypothesis that applying building industry's best practice initiatives can deliver sustainability within the built environment. This hypothesis assumes links between the applied practices, the outcome achieved and sustainability. This research tests this hypothesis with a single 'critical' case project; the recently constructed Lithgow Government Office Building (GOB) Development, and against a theoretical framework that defines sustainability. The GOB Development is a best practice example procured by a long lived and socially responsible organisation, government organisation - the Department of Commerce. This organisation adopted and applied new government policies along with best practice initiatives to produce a new benchmark - an award wining, trend-setting, seemingly sustainable development. The industry successes of the GOB Development made this a suitable single case study, one that was most likely to fare better than any other development procured at that time and by other means. The research conducted provides an insight and understanding into all the different factors during the procurement of the GOB project and highlights how these influenced the eventual built outcome and determined whether sustainability would be attained. This research assessment is seen as a crucial step in understanding the many limitations of best practice and thereby enabling the building industry's progression towards achieving sustainability within the built environment. The potential insight that can be gained from this research can enable the relationship between practice and theory to be better understood, and thereby provide the means to influence all future built outcomes. It is believed that such insight can encourage building practitioners and organisations to adopt and apply best practice initiatives as a means to achieve sustainability within the built environment.

Abstract:
This thesis focuses on presenting a theoretical and methodological framework that can be used to better understand the ability of different forms of tourism development to meet this key objective of sustainable development. I begin with a presentation of past attempts to grapple with the links that exist between tourism and the development process. It is shown that the theoretical approaches which dominated the tourism literature in the late 1970s and 1980s are unable to cope with the rapid changes occurring in the industry. In particular, these theories struggle to acknowledge and explain the growth of alternative forms of tourism. I then turn to new theoretical approaches epitomized by the work of Aulianna Poon. I argue that these new political economy approaches offer the best (though still far from perfect) way to understand the rise of alternative tourism and the complex interaction of global and local forces that characterize most forms of tourism development.
In its empirical analysis of Grenada's tourism industry, the thesis focuses on market demand, economic impacts and environmental issues. The results reveal that visitors to Grenada can be divided into three separate and distinct market segments: (i) rest and relaxation; (ii) active-water based; and (iii) new-age, soft-adventure types. While the vast majority of visitors come to Grenada for an active water-oriented vacation, the fastest growing segment is the soft-adventurers. The economic impact study shows that only about 29 cents in every dollar spent by the "average" tourists became direct local income in 1992. However, it is clear that tourist using medium-sized or small hotel accommodation consistently generate higher direct levels of income than those using other accommodation types.
This thesis introduces a mixture of innovative and more traditional techniques to analyze the sustainability of different forms of tourism development. The integrated approach also incorporates a Discrete Choice Experiment (market analysis) and then uses Arc/Info GIS to study water demand and pollution issues associated with different forms of tourism development in the Grand Anse beach area. Consistent with the results of the market segmentation analysis, the results of the discrete choice experiment further highlight the importance of the beach-front accommodation located within a semi-isolated setting. The results of the water impact assessment suggest that tourists demand twice as much domestic water per person/day as the local residents.
In conclusion, I discuss the applicability of my theoretical approach and examine the implications of the findings for Grenada's tourism development. It is clear that most tourism theory cannot adequately explain the shifts toward 'non-traditional' forms of tourism development. Since the empirical results indicate that this type of tourism development is best suited to Grenada's needs, it is important to seek alternative theoretical explanations. The empirical analysis reveals that traditional mass tourism development is likely to be the most environmentally damaging and economically disadvantageous tourism option to pursue on the island. The results show that low density, high quality accommodation is both in demand by tourists and is also associated with greater economic linkages and potentially less environmental damage. I conclude with a series of recommendations regarding the island's future tourism development efforts. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

Abstract:
Purpose: This research investigates the role and perceptions of quantity surveyors experienced with sustainable building projects and how they are able contribute as well as influence designs to address sustainability issues on projects. Design: To determine the considerations that affect quantity surveyors' perceptions towards sustainability in the construction industry, a literature review was carried out. This was followed by the development of an online survey formed of both structured and semi-structured questions that were issued out to South African quantity surveyors. This study administers online surveys distributed online to quantity surveyors on the ASAQS and the Green Building Council database consisting of 1499 registered members and 59 members respectively. Furthermore, in depth interviews were carried out with four quantity surveyors who had experience with green building projects. Findings: South Africa is accustomed to traditional building methods and the adoption of and adaptation to alternative building techniques is challenging to implement in the industry. The main barriers to sustainable building designs were the perceived higher cost of the materials as well as the lack of training and knowledge consultants have on material choices. Quantity surveyors nevertheless regarded the early design stages of a construction project as an ideal avenue for contribution towards sustainable building designs. Based on interviews conducted, professional quantity surveyors with experience on green building projects were more likely to contribute towards sustainable building specifications due to lessons learnt and knowledge from previous projects. However, quantity surveyors believed they generally have little influence towards green building specifications as the client and architect have the final say on what is incorporated into a building. Practical implications: The research study has provided a greater understanding of the role played by cost consultants on sustainability projects and how they can provide value to clients on such projects. Conclusions and Recommendations: The research concludes that Quantity surveyors are aware that they play a minor role player on project teams when it comes to providing alternative building specifications. It was acknowledged that quantity surveyors have limited experience on sustainable technologies and that further training and education in this regard is essential for them to add value to projects. It is recommended that further research be undertaken to obtain a larger sample size to get a clearer view of the perception of quantity surveyors advising on building specifications to support sustainable building developments.

Tian, Shu. Primer on Social Bonds and Recent Developments in Asia. Asian Development Bank, February 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.22617/spr210045-2.

Full text
Abstract:
Innovative financial instruments to support more inclusive development have emerged in recent years. These include social bonds designed to raise proceeds for projects with positive social outcomes. Social bonds can help Asia meet its long-term objectives in line with the Sustainable Development Goals and also facilitate the transition to a more inclusive economic recovery from the coronavirus disease (COVID-19). This publication explains why social bond market development is vital to financing the sustainable recovery of Asia from the pandemic. It also outlines salient barriers to social bond market development in the region and potential solutions to overcome them.

Montefusco, Maria, and Kai Koivumäki. Nordic indicators for cooperation on disability – Monitoring the implementation of UNCRPD and Agenda 2030. Edited by Christina Lindström. Nordens välfärdscenter, June 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.52746/ovbi5427.

Full text
Abstract:
No person with a disability shall be left behind. This report presents suggested indicators for monitoring the implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disability and Agenda 2030 in the Nordic region. The vision of the Nordic cooperation is to become the most integrated and sustainable in the world by 2030. The vision mirrors the sustainable development goals of Agenda 2030, according to which no-one shall be left behind. Persons with disabilities have the right to inclusion, and the Nordic countries monitor the developments of living conditions for persons with disabilities. All countries have also ratified the Convention on the rights of persons with disabilities and have high ambitions with regard to Agenda 2030. Throughout the region we face similar challenges concerning inclusion. Participation is not equal, not in employment, nor in education, economy, or health. But to improve this we need to see it. Even if a set of indicators is not the only way forward, they can help us measure if we are on the right track. In this report, we suggest a set of indicators that could be developed further and used to follow the developments towards inclusion and measure living conditions. By developing such a set of comparable indicators in the Nordic countries, we can see whether the countries separately and collectively follow the intentions of the UNCRPD to improve the living conditions of people with disabilities. The indicators are also an aid in the work to identify whether we are working correctly to achieve the Agenda 2030 targets.

Edwards, Alix Mary. Transport for Sustainable Development: TRL’s contributions towards meeting sustainable development goals. TRL, December 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.58446/xkma6735.

Full text
Abstract:
TRL’s vision for the future is of clean, efficient transport that is safe, reliable and accessible for everyone, including for countries in the global south; low- and middle-income countries. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) from the United Nations set out 17 goals with a multitude of targets. Many of these relate to transport, and TRL’s work directly contributes to achieve the safety and climate related transport goals. TRL is a global centre of excellence in transport and innovative mobility solutions. We have an internationally recognised team of scientists, researchers and consultants, who can provide training and upskilling to authorities and businesses throughout the global south. By working together and sharing knowledge and skills we can help to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals for safety and climate change, and help to answer some of these challenging questions.

Yuan, Jingdong, Fei Su, and Xuwan Ouyang. China’s Evolving Approach to Foreign Aid. Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, May 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.55163/wtnj4163.

Full text
Abstract:
China’s role in foreign aid and, more broadly, in development cooperation on the global stage has grown significantly since it began seven decades ago. Particularly in recent years, through such platforms as the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), China’s profile and engagement in global governance in foreign aid and related areas has been further enhanced. China’s ambition is taking a more proactive approach in foreign aid and moving towards a model of international development cooperation by linking with the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and by including the BRI as a major platform to achieve key development goals. This paper provides a timely analysis of the evolution of China’s foreign aid policy in the past seven decades with a particular focus on the developments since 2000. It discusses China’s development finance to Africa and the major sectors receiving Chinese aid. It also analyses recent trends of Chinese foreign aid and identifies some of the challenges that China faces as it becomes a major player in international development financing.

Full text
Abstract:
This casebook presents the outcomes of the Water for Sustainable Development (WSD) research project implemented by the United Nations University Institute for the Advanced Study of Sustainability (UNU-IAS) to improve regional environmental and economic policies in the case study countries. The project investigated the role of water in the sustainable development of four locations in Asia: Bali Province, Indonesia; Kaski District, Nepal; Visakhapatnam City, India; and Rayong Province, Thailand. Based on an Input-Output (IO) analysis, the research findings provide a comprehensive matrix of intersectoral dependence, in terms of economy, water consumption, and pollution loads, and offer policy directives for controlling water pollution. The publication is aimed at policymakers, water practitioners, researchers, and students interested in learning and utilising the analytical framework developed by WSD.
