Unravelling Disaster Responses in Tanzania
Globally, earthquake impacts are escalating. One of the key factors that reduces the impacts is an effective response. This article examines earthquake responses in Bukoba Municipality, located along the East African Rift System. The study adopted a qualitative-descriptive research approach involving purposive sampling of key informants and focus group participants. Data were collected through documentary reviews, key informant interviews, focus …
Assessing the influences of service provision on pace and short and medium term development patterns of residential housing in Dar es Salaam
The connection between city development patterns, housing and service provision is critical as it affects allocation of scarce resources in the cities of Sub Sahara Africa, where the adopted planning models and concepts seem to have minimal success. Through spatial analysis and quantitative research this study explores sequencing of servicing and housing development as it impacts city spatial growth patterns in a context of resource deficiency in…
Urban transformations, migration and residential mobility patterns in African secondary cities
Urban growth is a significant trend in Africa. Scholarly attention and urban planning efforts have focused disproportionately on the challenges of big cities, while small and medium-sized urban settlements are growing most rapidly and house the majority of urban residents. Small towns have received some attention, but very few studies have focused on secondary cities. This paper offers a study of urban transformations, migration and residential m…
Towards transformative adaptation in cities
This paper considers the very large differences in adaptive capacity among the world’s urban centres. It then discusses how risk levels may change for a range of climatic drivers of impacts in the near term (2030–2040) and the long term (2080–2100) with a 2°C and a 4°C warming for Dar es Salaam, Durban, London and New York City. The paper is drawn directly from Chapter 8 of Climate Change 2014: Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability, the IPCC Work…
The constraints on climate change adaptation in a city with a large development deficit
The city of Dar es Salaam, with a population of more than four million, has no climate change adaptation plan. It also has a very large development deficit and lacks adequate provision for infrastructure and services such as piped water, sewers, drains and solid waste collection. Addressing this deficit (and building the institutional and financial capacity to do so) is also important for building resilience to climate change impacts. Eighty per …
