Spatial planning guidelines for child-friendly spaces
This research investigates the planning and design of child-friendly spaces in an African context by means of a placemaking approach. Previous research has focused on place-making and urban planning and design guidelines for public spaces, but with limited focus on child-friendly public spaces. Thus, this article investigates and recommends urban planning and design guidelines for child-friendly spaces in an African context. The research employs …
Economic Assessment of South African Urban Green Spaces Using the Proximity Principle
Urban green spaces (UGSs) deliver ecosystem services and potential economic benefits like increases in proximate residential property prices. The proximity principle (PP) premises that property prices increase as distance to UGS decreases. The PP has generally been confirmed by studies using municipal valuations and market values internationally. Conversely, South African studies have mostly employed municipal valuations and results have rejected…
Closing the Gap Between Urban Planning and Urban Ecology
Ecological considerations should be an integral part of the decision-making processes of urban planners. Specifically, ecological aspects used in urban ecology, such as green infrastructure and ecosystem services, are substantiated by literature as strategies for improving quality of life, human health, and well-being. Studies dealing with such concepts in the Global South recently gained interest; however, these lack empirical evidence on the in…
