Abstract
Urban management in Egypt faces several challenges in view of
globalization and agreements of trade and sustainability concepts so it was
necessary for urban management to keep pace of era requirements and
challenges and fulfils its needs.
Several concepts appeared that are related to progress in urban
management such as partnership, time management, transparency,
accountability and other concepts that began to intervene space of
application in communities and projects. Concept of Participatory
Planning is one from these concepts which became used concepts in our
several national projects.
Transparency and accountability are considered two main ingredients of
urban management that forms a preceding condition of sustainability
development achievement conditions. They are two correlated concepts
that enhance each other, accountability can't be found in absence of
transparency, if there is no accountability, transparency won't have any
value.
So this research paper aims at finding methodological steps for enhancing
accountability and transparency in urban planning projects for activating
Participatory Planning.
Research plan depends on 4 main axes (aspects):
The first axis: identifying concepts of transparency and accountability and
the requirements and indicators of applying them.
The second axis: identifying concept of Participatory Planning and the
requirements of applying it to find role of transparency and accountability
in activating Participatory Planning.
The third axis: conducting a questionnaire for measuring indicators of
transparency and accountability in a number of Participatory Planning
projects in slum.
The fourth axis: finding methodological steps for enhancing values of
transparency and accountability of Participatory Planning projects of
slum.
All development partners should follow steps that enhance values of
transparency and accountability, setting defined plans to fulfill these
values in participatory planning projects in slum, activating as well these
projects’ performance and role to acquire them credibility of population.
