HLO Guys,
I have made a presentation on the topic "Urbanization and its Impact". So plz use this information if you want. And saying this I am publishing this.
Victoria Okoye presented on re-imagining public spaces in Accra, Ghana. Accra has experienced immense population growth, reaching 2.3 million residents, with over 56% of the population under 24 years old. Current parks in Accra lack features that make social spaces vibrant, such as social activities, commercial activities, accessibility, and security. Okoye proposed a placemaking approach to transform underused spaces, like a parking lot, into vibrant people's parks through community engagement and collaboration. This was demonstrated by the successful Chale Wote Street Art Festival in Jamestown, Accra.
This document discusses key concepts related to human geography including global patterns of urbanization. It notes that around 50% of the world's population now lives in urban areas, with the most urbanized continents being Europe, North America, and South America. Asia has the largest number of urban dwellers at 1.4 billion people, and urbanization is increasing most rapidly in Africa and Asia. By 2025, half the population in Africa and Asia will live in cities.
CAMBRIDGE AS GEOGRAPHY REVISION: SETTLEMENTS - 6.4 THE MANAGEMENT OF URBAN SE...George Dumitrache
A comprehensive presentation of subchapter 6.4 The Management of Urban Settlements, from the third chapter of Human Geography, AS Cambridge, Settlements.
Rural and urban areas are connected through a rural-urban continuum where cultural traits, ideologies, and ways of life diffuse from cities to rural regions due to increased communication and proximity to urban centers. The process of urbanization has led to occupational diversification in rural areas and the emergence of urban amenities and jobs as rural status symbols. Rural and urban regions have also changed through counter-urbanization, suburbanization, re-urbanization, and intra-urban migration as populations move between rural and urban locations.
This document discusses the concept of "New Suburbanism" and approaches to applying its principles in built-out suburbs. It provides examples of evolving older suburbs with new centers, redeveloping post-WWII production suburbs by retrofitting sites like strip malls, and constructing new villages on greenfield sites in periphery suburbs. The document notes challenges in production suburbs that never had downtown centers and the need to connect any new centers anatomically. It concludes by providing sources for further information and contact details for the author.
Exurbanisation, Counterurbanisation And Decentralisationdangerzonegeog
The document discusses three trends in urbanization: exurbanization, counter-urbanization, and decentralization. Exurbanization involves growth of low-density settlements beyond cities that remain functionally linked to the city through commuting. Counter-urbanization is the relocation of people and jobs from large to smaller urban or rural areas. Decentralization occurs when governments encourage industries to move out of large metro areas to smaller cities and towns. These trends are driven by factors like increased incomes, lower travel costs, lifestyle preferences, environmental concerns, and improvements in transportation and technology.

Suburbanisation refers to the movement of people, services, and industries from the centers of inner urban areas to the edges of built-up areas. In the 1800-1900 period, industry could pay the most for city center sites, leading to unplanned housing around factories with few amenities. The middle class began moving to suburbs. Suburban areas continued rapidly expanding in the inter-war and post-war periods due to fewer regulations. Causes of suburbanization include decentralization of jobs to cheaper land prices on the outskirts, deindustrialization causing inner city job losses, attractions of suburban locations like space and amenities, and advances in transportation allowing longer commutes. Consequences can be economic, environmental, or social for both the
The document summarizes a market feasibility analysis for restoring passenger rail service between New York City and the Berkshire region of Massachusetts. It finds that private operation without public subsidies is feasible, estimating 2 million passenger trips annually. Initial capital costs would require public-private funding. Benefits would include increased economic activity, jobs, tourism, and tax revenues, while reducing traffic and environmental impacts.
Rural-urban linkages matter for several reasons:
1) Definitions of "urban" and "rural" vary greatly between countries, making international comparisons difficult.
2) Areas surrounding cities, though often classified as rural, have important roles in supplying food and other goods to urban consumers.
3) Rural and urban populations are interdependent, as many rely on economic opportunities and resources in both areas. Ignoring these linkages can increase hardship.
Los angeles vs Mumbai - Comparative AnalysisGeeva Chandana
The document provides a comparative analysis of the master plans and development histories of Los Angeles and Mumbai. It summarizes that both cities' master plans have a vision of sustainable and inclusive development, and address issues like land use, transportation, infrastructure. However, Mumbai's plan has unclear development proposals for slums, while LA's plan focuses on conservation and has more comprehensive zoning and implementation programs. The document also compares the cities' histories of human settlement and drivers of economic growth centered around industries like films.
The African Urban Research Initiative (AURI) is a network of applied research centres to inform and enhance the policy actors and networks in each African country responsible for urban policy and management. Sub-Saharan Africa is one of the fastest urbanizing regions in the world, yet it is the least prepared institutionally to deal with the pressures that will be associated with this process. Development Workshop has participated from the inception of the initiative in Addis Ababa in March 2013 and is one of the three member Steering Committee. The 18 member research centres aim to network together to exchange knowledge, know-how, and expertise to foster a layer of credible and resilient institutions rooted in local realities but engaged with broader trends. The secretariat of AURI is hosted by the Africa Centre for Cities at the University of Cape Town.
The theme of the Nairobi workshop held on the 18th and 19th of February 2014 was, ‘institutional models of knowledge co-production in the African city’. The workshop probed the notion of ‘co-production’ from an African perspective, and to identify the different models and practices of knowledge co-production that exist and are possible in the African context.
Allan Cain made the following presentation on how Development Workshop uses the co-production of urban research to engage with other Angolan non-state actors in ongoing advocacy with public policy makers on:
-land tenure and urban land markets,
-the informal economy that employs more than half of the population,
-housing strategies and finance
-economic justice issues,
-civil society space and post-conflict peace and reconciliation,
-urban transformations and Chinese financing,
-urban adaptations to environmental & climate change
-community-lead basic services
In the digital arena ample of hitches are faced due to urbanization disrupting the living standards of people in the country. Predicted statistics on urbanization is tremendously increasing day by day and again
Urban Planning: Settlement size, pattern and structure as a function of socio...Ashutosh Mishra
WHAT IS SETTLEMENT ??
A settlement is a place where people live.
A settlement could be anything from an isolated farmhouse to a mega city (settlement with over 10 million people).
Settlements can either be temporary or permanent.
Temporary settlements include things such as refugee camps.
Some temporary settlements have become permanent over time, (the largest in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil).
The reason why a settlement developed in the first place is said to be its function.
This document analyzes gentrification in Chicago between 1990 and 2000 using U.S. Census data at the census tract level. It finds that many neighborhoods near downtown Chicago experienced increases in income, education, and the percentage of white residents over this period, indicating gentrification. At the same time, many outer neighborhoods saw increases in minority populations, suggesting original residents may have been displaced outward. The author aims to quantify gentrification and examine how initial neighborhood characteristics relate to which areas gentrified.
The document discusses the suburbanization of cities and the factors that led to rapid suburban growth in the 20th century. It describes how mass car ownership and changing transport technologies influenced urban morphology. It also outlines the multiple nuclei model of urban development and features of suburban lifestyles, including large regional shopping centers, edge cities, and competition with central business districts.
This document discusses rural to urban migration in India. It outlines several key causes of rural to urban migration, including lack of economic opportunities and amenities in rural areas, as well as the search for better wages, education, and employment in cities. The document also examines the impacts of migration, such as population growth putting pressure on urban housing and the environment, and increasing unemployment and crime rates in cities. Additionally, it categorizes different types of migration and provides recommendations to address the drivers and effects of rural to urban migration in India.
This document discusses how understanding demographic and economic forces is important for comprehensive planning. It provides an overview of key demographic trends like changing household structures, a growing minority population, and an aging population. It also discusses the importance of evaluating the local economy by understanding key industries and how they may change. The document emphasizes that transportation must be considered as it influences the locations of jobs, housing, and economic activity. It concludes by providing four lessons for comprehensive planning: understand opportunities for change in the community; consider the regional economic context; use data to support land use policies; and plan for diverse demographics, industries, and transportation needs.
Urban Development in Ganga Delta region. Historically relevant of Gangetic basin and how major urban center develop in Ganga delta basically in West Bengal.
China has experienced rapid urbanization and economic growth fueled by land financing reforms over the past few decades. However, these reforms have also led to corruption, rural land grabs, and potential property bubbles as local governments profit from land sales and foreign capital influences the real estate market. While China's model of urbanization has been successful, adopting a more transparent system like Singapore's public housing model could help address challenges and ensure accessible housing as urbanization continues.
This document provides an overview of urbanization and perspectives on urban growth. It discusses the definition of urbanization and causes of urban growth such as improved food supply, healthcare, education and jobs. It outlines functionalist, symbolic and conflict perspectives on urbanization. The functionalist view sees urban development as necessary for societal progress, while increasing rates of anomie. Symbolic perspectives examine how city life shapes social interaction and division of labor. Conflict views emphasize the role of power and wealth in influencing urban development decisions. The document also examines theories of urban growth patterns and current problems faced by developing world cities like pollution, unemployment, and housing shortages.

Describe basic elements of rural-urban migration.Fidy Zegge
Rural-urban migration refers to the movement of people from rural agricultural communities to larger urban non-agricultural communities. There are two main types of migration: internal migration within a country, and external or international migration between countries. Rural-urban migration systems involve potential migrants in rural areas being encouraged by poor rural conditions to migrate, facing rural social controls, adjusting to life in urban areas through employment opportunities, and providing feedback to encourage or discourage further migration through information channels.
CIUS presentation HRBSP conference -Urbanisation in Cambodia,Declan O'Leary
A presentation made on the "Urbanisation Trends in Cambodia, Past present and Future" at the international Conference on " Human Rights Based Spatial Planning" November 4-5 2015, in Phnom Penh Cambodia. Organised by PiN and STT with European Union support.
It indicates that current consideration of urbanisation are falling far behind the realities, which now see's 30% of the national population living in an urban area, which will increase to 38% ~7 million by 2030 and exceed 50% of the population by 2050. Which poses significant challenges for urban planning, development and management
The document discusses India's diverse demographics and rural-urban landscape. It notes that India has over 2000 ethnic groups and major religions represented across its 28 states and 7 union territories. Rural areas are defined by revenue villages, which may contain multiple hamlets, while urban areas are defined by population thresholds and economic activity. Census data from 2001 shows India was 72.2% rural by population at that time. Rural areas are becoming less dependent on agriculture as industry and services grow in the rural economy.

Our exploration of Cape Town's urban landscape reveals a city shaped by a rich history of urbanization, diverse neighborhoods, and pressing challenges. Additionally, we have delved into South Africa's urban pattern and the historical factors influencing its development. We've also briefly examined the racial segregation in South Africa. As we reflect on Cape Town's dynamic evolution, it becomes evident that sustainable strategies are essential to guide its future growth and development.

The document discusses India's diverse demographics and the definitions of rural and urban areas used in Indian censuses. It notes that India has over 2000 ethnic groups and major religions represented. It also explains that rural areas are defined as villages, while urban areas must have a population over 5,000, density over 400 per square km, and at least 75% of males working in non-agriculture. Census data from 2001 is presented showing the rural-urban population distribution in India.
The document discusses the emergence and development of urban communities and metropolitan areas. It defines key terms like urban area, urbanization, metropolis, exurban, and suburban. It then describes the history of early cities appearing thousands of years ago along fertile river valleys. It also outlines the origin of urbanization in places like Mesopotamia, India, China, and how most rapid urbanization occurred in America, Europe in the 20th century. The document also discusses the classification of cities in the Philippines and identifies 12 metropolitan areas as the country's leading industrial and economic centers.
This document discusses population growth trends worldwide and in India, with a focus on urbanization. Some key points:
1) The world population reached 7 billion in 2010 and is projected to reach 7.9-10.9 billion by 2050, with China and India each having over 1 billion people.
2) India's population reached 1 billion in 2000, 1.2 billion in 2011, and is projected to reach 1.8 billion by 2050, with 50% living in urban areas.
3) Urbanization is seen as both a driver and consequence of economic development. As urban areas generate wealth and tax revenue, their effective management is critical for India's continued growth.

Infrastructures and services are known to be the backbone of any human settlement . They are known to be determinant of the quality of life and operational efficiency of any city. They are also the one regulating the productivity of the city. Infra remain vital for all the urban residents , communities, city and the state. Accordingly, it becomes important that infrastructures on prescribed norms and standards are made available in both quantity and quality in the human habitation. Providing Infra requires lot of resources and technology know how. Accordingly adequate provision in the budget of urban local bodies need to be provided. in addition to providing infra and services, it is critical that they are also maintained properly. Key issues in the infra is the delivery of services. Government must involve private sector in providing services. Services charges also have to be rational to make them affordable. Providing services and infra remains a difficult and innovative option. It offers both a challenge and an opportunity. All ULBs must ensure adequate services of appropriate quality to all its citizens , even poorest of poor, to lead a dignified living.
This document discusses global and Indian population trends, urbanization rates, and issues related to urban infrastructure development. Some key points:
- World population has grown rapidly from 1 billion in 1804 to over 7 billion currently, and is projected to reach 8-11 billion by 2050. India surpassed China as the world's most populous country in 2023.
- India's population grew from 250 million in 1919 to over 1.2 billion in 2011. By 2050, 50% of India's population is projected to live in urban areas. Many cities are growing rapidly but face infrastructure challenges.
- Urban areas will be critical for India's economic growth but most cities face issues like lack of adequate housing
This document discusses urbanization and migration trends in Chennai, India. It notes that Chennai has experienced high rates of migration from rural areas and other parts of India, contributing to rapid urban growth. This migration has caused issues like overcrowding, development of slums, shortage of infrastructure and services, and pressure on natural resources. While migration provides economic opportunities, it also creates social problems and instability for migrants with uncertain residential status and lack of access to basic amenities. The document examines push-pull factors driving migration and its impacts on the urbanization of Chennai.
This document discusses smart cities and urban planning in India. It begins with definitions of traditional city planning and smart city planning. It then discusses the impacts of globalization and economic changes on urbanization and city growth in India. Some key challenges discussed for Indian cities include population growth, urban sprawl, flooding, garbage, air and water pollution. The document examines trends in urbanization for India by 2030 and outlines some urban challenges around areas like transportation, infrastructure, land use, and the environment. It advocates for a shift towards more sustainable urban planning approaches focused on mobility and people rather than just transportation infrastructure expansion.
Presentation details the context, role and importance of both hard and soft infrastructure in making the human living more qualitative, productive, effective and efficient; briefs about the current status of infrastructure in urban India, roadblocks faced by institutions involved in the development of the cities in providing infrastructure and options to create appropriate level of infrastructures in urban India in order to make India a role model of urban development and making India third ranked global economy.
Urbanization in Nepal has increased rapidly in recent decades as more people migrate to cities. This has brought economic benefits but also environmental and social challenges. Future urban planning needs policies that encourage conservation of historic areas, manage growth, and improve living conditions for growing urban populations through community development programs and facilities. Rapid urbanization worldwide requires balancing development with preserving green spaces and cultural heritage.
The document discusses the settlement pattern and hierarchy proposed for an irrigated colony area in Rajasthan, India based on the central place theory. It involves a 5-tier settlement hierarchy with basic villages, amenity/middle school villages, service towns, mandi towns, and regional towns. The Naurangdesar distributary area is used as a case study to demonstrate how this hierarchy was applied at the sub-area level, taking into consideration factors like existing settlements, optimal village and farm sizes, and accessibility. The proposed hierarchy aims to provide an integrated, balanced, and functionally efficient pattern of rural-urban settlements for the newly irrigated area.
The document discusses urbanization in the context of Nepal. It defines urbanization and traces its history in Nepal. Some key points made include:
- Urbanization in Nepal is defined as the transformation of rural areas into urban form through connections to transportation and growth.
- The benefits of urbanization include access to amenities, economic growth, and better living conditions.
- Urbanization is happening rapidly in Nepal and is an important part of the country's economic and social changes. However, rapid urbanization also faces challenges like unemployment, poverty, and environmental impacts.
- Improving urban governance, legal frameworks, and long-term planning will help ensure urbanization in Nepal is sustainable and beneficial.
The document discusses urbanization trends in India and the state of Odisha. It focuses on the city of Bhubaneswar, the capital of Odisha. Some key points:
- Bhubaneswar has experienced rapid urban growth, with its population doubling every 10-15 years. It is now the largest and fastest growing city in Odisha.
- About one third of Bhubaneswar's population lives in slums lacking basic services. The city faces issues like uncontrolled development, incompatible land uses, and inadequate infrastructure like roads and transportation.
- Past plans for Bhubaneswar include the 1948 plan when it became the new capital, and the 1968 Master Plan. A revised Comp
This document discusses urbanization and related topics. It defines urbanization as the demographic shift to cities and examines factors like population numbers, density, and how cities grow outward or vertically. It notes there is no universal definition of an urban area, but most consider places with populations over 2,000 people to be urban. While urbanization can promote economic and social progress, it also brings challenges like unemployment, pollution, inequality between rural and urban areas, and placing pressure on cities to provide infrastructure and services. The document discusses these challenges and potential planning tools to achieve more sustainable urbanization.
Urban settlements are characterized by high population densities, populations engaged mostly in non-agricultural sectors, and nucleated settlements with distinct economic and cultural characteristics compared to rural areas. India's urban population was 31.16% in 2011, with large variation between states from 62.17% in Goa to 10.04% in Himachal Pradesh. Urban areas are officially defined as settlements with over 5,000 people, density over 400/sq km, and at least 75% engaged in non-farm work. Urban centers are further classified based on population as towns (<100k), cities (100k-1m), metropolises (>1m), and megacities (>5m people). Problems faced

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

2. CONCEPT OF URBANIZATION
In population education, urbanization refers
to the process of population concentration
whereby populations move from a rural area
to an urban one, leading to a relative rise in
the number of city habitants. Urban
geography considers urbanization a local
phenomenon.
3. CLASSIFICATIONS OF URBAN CENTRES
Following can be some efforts of classifying the urban areas in
the different census and legal document :-
• The 1952/54 census provided data on 10 “prominent” settlement s with a
population over 5000. Those prominent settlements can be taken as urban
areas.
• The 1961 census for the first time defined an urban areas or a “Sahar” as “an
area with a population cluster of 5000 and over and having an urban
environment such as high school, colleges, judicial and administrative offices,
bazaar, communication facilities, mills, factories etc.
• The Nagar panchayat act of 1962 mentioned Nagar as the local level urban
administrative unit. It specified the population size criteria of ”not less than
10000” for a Nagar.
4. According to the local self-governance act 1999 urban centers are classified
into three categories: Nagarpalika, Upamahanagarpalika and
mahanagarpalika with the following criteria:-
i) Municipality: Municipality in an are with :-
• A minimum population size of 20000 in the terai and 10000 in the
hill/mountains.
• An annual revenue of 5 million in the terai and 500000 in the hill/mountains.
• Minimum urban facilities such as electricity, road, drinking water,
communication and other similar urban facilities
ii) Upmahanagarpalika :-
• A population size of 100000.
• An annual revenue of at least Rs. 100 million.
5. • An area that has already received the status of a
Nagarpalika.
iii) Mahanagarpalika :-
• A minimum population size of 300000
• An annual revenue of at least Rs 400 million

6. TRENDS OF URBANIZATION IN NEPAL
Towns and rural areas in Nepal are seeing
urbanization increase between 5 and 7
percent each year. This is even more than
the country's capital, Kathmandu, with a 4
percent increase every year, and Pokhara,
with a growing urbanization rate of 5
percent per year.

8. EFFECTS OF URBANIZATION ON
POPULATION AND ENVIRONMENT
Urbanization can increase population density by restricting
animal movement, increasing available forage, or
decreasing competition by reducing the population size
of competitors
Urbanization also affects the broader regional
environments. Regions downwind from large industrial
complexes also see increases in the amount of
precipitation, air pollution, and the number of days with
thunderstorms. Urban areas affect not only the weather
patterns, but also the runoff patterns for water.
