摘要: The informal land development system in sub-Saharan Africa is perceived to promote equity and could be leveraged to support sustainable urban development and management. However, scanty empirical evidence exists on the extent of the system's provision of equity to support policy formulation and practice in the region. Based on stakeholder workshops, focus group discussions, and questionnaire surveys, this study analyzes the system's provision of equity in Nigeria. The study finds that all categories of people undertake informal developments. Consistent with the literature, this finding reflects wide patronage of the informal land development system and its relevance. Nevertheless, contrary to the existing perception, the system's provision of equity is low. The study recommends the institution of pro-poor and gender-sensitive land development and management policies and programs to increase the levels of equity to support the achievement of the country's sustainable urban development and management agenda.
