Housing and SDGs in urban Africa
Housing and SDGs in urban Africa[electronic resource] /edited by Timothy Gbenga Nubi ... [et al.]. - Singapore :Springer Singapore :2021. - xix, 338 p. :ill. (some col.), digital ;24 cm. - Advances in 21st century human settlements,2198-2546. - Advances in 21st century human settlements..

Africa's housing sector as a pathway to achieving the SDGs -- Global goal, local context: Pathways to sustainable urban development in Lagos, Nigeria -- The road not taken: Policy and politics of housing management in Africa -- Learning from experience: An exposition of Singapore's home ownership scheme and imperatives for Nigeria -- Housing and possible health implications in upgraded informal settlements: Evidence from Mangaung township, South Africa -- Housing, health and well-being of slum dwellers in Nigeria: Case studies of six cities -- Adverse impact of human activities on aquatic ecosystems: Investigating the environmental sustainability perception of stakeholders in Lagos and Ogun states, Nigeria -- Meeting the sustainable development goals: Considerations for household and indoor air pollution in Nigeria and Ghana -- A study of housing, good health and well-being in Kampala, Uganda.

There is a dearth of collections of scholarly works dedicated wholly to African issues, that comes out of the work done by African scholars and practitioners with both African collaborators and from elsewhere. This volume brings together scholarly works and thoughts that cut across and intertwine the tripods-environment-consciousness, socially just development and African development into options that could deliver on the promise of the SDGs. The book project is an initiative of the Centre for Housing and Sustainable Development at the University of Lagos, which realized the gap in ground research linking the housing sector with the SDGs in African cities. This book therefore presents chapters that explore the interconnections, interactions and linkages between the SDGs and Housing through research, practice, experience, case-studies, desk-based research and other knowledge media.
