Description

As rapid urbanization transforms the globe, the zones where urban and rural areas meet face unprecedented challenges. The Peri-Urban Interface: Approaches to Sustainable Natural and Human Resource Use provides a deep look into these critical zones. Home to hundreds of millions of people, these areas experience intense pressure on resources, the formation of slums, and a lack of essential services like water and sanitation. This book addresses the complex problems caused by rapid urban growth, including poor planning and the degradation of vital farmland. By examining the impacts on livelihoods, poverty, and resources, this text offers a necessary look at the unique difficulties these regions face. Written by top researchers and practitioners, the content provides the distinctive and innovative approaches needed to manage these transitional spaces effectively. It is an essential resource for those studying how to balance human needs with environmental sustainability in an increasingly urbanized world.
