“…The scale of development that tends to increase is positively associated with the use of water catchment areas, reduction of forest cover and disturbance to biodiversity. This means that an increase in development activities and human activities is the cause of the potential risk of natural disasters due to damage to environmental ecosystems [54]. The facts found in the field illustrate that forest destruction and the use of water catchment areas contribute to changes in the flood cycle in the suburban area of the Mamminasata Metropolitan.…”

The expansion of urban areas towards the development of new urban areas has an impact on changes in land use, socio-economic dynamics and a decrease in environmental quality. This study aims to analyze land use change as a determinant of environmental degradation and the spatial dynamics of metropolitan urban areas, the effect of land use change, housing development, infrastructure development, and land reclamation on the environmental degradation of the new city area, and control strategies environmental pollution and sustainable development of the new city area. This study uses a quantitative-qualitative concurrent triangulation design approach. Elaboration of data through observation, in-depth interviews, surveys, and documentation is used to describe the socio-economic community, and the decline in the environmental quality of new city area development in relation to the spatial dynamics of metropolitan urban areas. The results of the study show that the intensity of land use change coupled with an increase in socio-economic activities in the development of new city areas is positively associated with a decrease in environmental quality and segregation towards the spatial dynamics of metropolitan urban areas. Changes in land use, housing development, infrastructure development, and land reclamation simultaneously affect environmental quality degradation with a coefficient of determination of 64.96%. This study recommends strategies for controlling environmental pollution and sustainable development of new city areas for the needs of formulating urban development policies for Mamminasata Metropolitan South Sulawesi, Indonesia.

“…The study observed the use of simple and cheap methods of land documents by both sites such as land registers and CCLO to exclude outside communities from being able to acess land in the chiefdom (Mkumbwa, et al, 2019;Munshifwa, et al, 2020). This study shows that under state policies of privatisation and accomodification, tradtional tenure have evolved towards individualised tenure with clear ownership of rights (Triantis, 2020). The inclusion of land documents increased tenure secuirty as landholders' certification was done by chief which provided evidence of claims to land (Mkumbwa, Liversage, & Sylla, 2019).…”

Literature is now cognizant of the fact that customary land governance structures are changing in most of sub-Saharan Africa. The relevance of land governance is largely dependent on the local institution, even without direct State intervention. In other words, customary areas are no longer sites for unrestrained, selfish and uncivilized competitions resulting in high tenure insecurity. However, a number of issues still remain debatable over these changes: for instance, what is their exact form and what are the “plausible” development outcomes related to these changes? This paper assets that, answers to these questions are often location specific in literature, hence the rationale for this study within the Zambian context. This study compares two customary areas, with different customary rights and administration, i.e. Shimukunami were residents are issued with traditional certificates and Chamuka where they are not. Data was collected through household questionnaires, key informants and focus group discussions. The paper tested a number of parameters which included number of conflict (e.g. on ownership, boundaries, encroachments), agricultural production (labour, crops, etc.) and generally livelihood strategies. We conclude that change in customary land governance has been a reaction to pressures and influences such as rapid population, high demand for customary land and introduction of monetary transactions. Further, institutions are not static but have evolved to meet changing societal demands. Therefore, approaches recommended for effective traditional land governance must be mainstreamed in local structure so as to provide a sustainable solution to tenure security and rural development. However, the appropriate approaches should be chosen taking into account the need of the local communities, traditional institutions and dynamics of land governance of a particular area.
