Produktbeschreibung
Urban development over time has spread into areas where mining activities were once carried out, hence the presence of degraded landscapes referred to as post-mine brownfields within the urban landscape. Brownfields constitute a poor fit into the urban realm and are largely seen as problem spaces. They are a safety concern due to crime and hazards associated with abandoned sites. They also take up vital urban land that could be used more productively, besides not being aesthetically appealing to residents of neighboring property. While there is need to rehabilitate Kisumu's brownfields into more productive urban land uses, it is not clear how such rehabilitation should be undertaken. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the public perception on viable options for reuse and integration of post-mine brownfields into the planned urban landscape of Kisumu City.
