Responsiveness of urban land administration systems in managing wetlands in the rapidly urbanizing Bujumbura city, Burundi
Wetlands are increasingly recognised as lungs for urban areas. It is observed that wetlands in urban areas around the world are encroached on and or their uses changed illegally. This happens when there are institutions and land administration systems that are supposed to manage these lands. Therefore, there is a lack of knowledge on how wetlands in highly urbanising cities are managed with the existing institutions and land administration system…
Community-Based Land Governance Solutions to Climate-Driven Land Resources–Based Conflict: Insights From Fafan-Harshin District, Somali Region of Ethiopia
This study examines how climate change drives land resource conflicts in Ethiopia, particularly in the drought-prone areas where environmental stress intersects with fragile governance systems, by taking cases from Harshin district. Mixed research approach, based on primary and secondary sources data, was employed. The findings reveal that drought frequency in the study area has been increasing as a manifestation of climate change. This trend pla…
Advances in Rights-Based Connections of Land and Migration Governance in Africa: Systematic Review of Research Needs and Policy Responses
The importance of land access for migrants as a key integrating factor has gained attention in academia and research. It is also obvious that land policy and governance frameworks are crucial for determining land access for migrants. However, little is known about the extent of policy and governance frameworks in addressing migrants’ access to land in Africa. Moreover, the existing body of research on examining the nexus between land and migratio…
Exploring institutional capacity of urban land delivery and administration for housing development in Bahir Dar, Ethiopia: Institutional analysis
Land administration institutional arrangements with clear functions, robust coordination, and integrated monitoring and evaluation systems are critical to ensuring sustainable land and housing delivery in rapidly expanding cities. It is also important to benefit the homeless and low-income groups in society. However, urban areas in Ethiopia have faced various challenges in providing land for residential housing development. Moreover, studies on a…
Examining the practice of urban governance using UN-Habitat urban governance index in Gondar city, North West Ethiopia
One of the outlining challenges of the twenty-first century is managing rapidly urbanizing cities. If managed well and guided by sound urban governance principles, cities can act as instruments of growth, and the goal of urban sustainability can be realized. On the other hand, poorly governed cities can become hubs of poverty, disparity, and conflict. Thus, this study is aimed to explore the implementation of urban governance principles in Gondar…
The mediating role of governance in handling diverse and conflicting land interests in the peri-urban Ethiopia: A structural equation modeling analysis
The dynamic transformation of peri-urban landscapes from agricultural uses to urban built up is a common practice in developing countries like Ethiopia, which generally does not yield the desired results. Therefore, this study aims to examine the role of governance in mediating the relationship between selected governance success factors and peri-urban socioeconomic conditions. Structural equation modeling is used to support analytical frameworks…
Understanding competing and conflicting interests for peri-urban land in Ethiopia’s era of urbanization
Understanding the competing and conflicting interests in peri-urban land is crucial for informed decisions and well-managed urbanization. These interests in peri-urban land in Ethiopia are explored from a political economy perspective, using desk review and case study research. The findings show that the state, the private business sector and the local community are the three main sets of players with competing interests in peri-urban land, which…
Thinking outside the box and introducing land readjustment against the conventional urban land acquisition and delivery method in Ethiopia
Informal settlements in the peri-urban areas of Bahir Dar, Ethiopia: An institutional analysis
Land Tenure in the Changing Peri-Urban Areas of Ethiopia: The Case of Bahir Dar City
Ethiopia's urban expansion and development strategy has been based on the acquisition of land by government from adjacent peri-urban areas. The land in the peri-urban areas is predominantly agricultural in nature, and it has been held by local farmers or landholders. This article aims to examine the nature of urban expansion and development from the perspective of the land rights of the local peri-urban landholders. To achieve this purpose, it ha…
