Tonga Integrated Urban Development Project
Updated: 24 May 2006
The technical assistance will undertake a participatory process to address the current ad hoc approach to urban management by developing an urban planning and management strategy (UPMS) in Tonga. An investment project for integrated urban development in priority low-lying areas identified by the UPMS — which will improve living conditions in Nuku'alofa — will be prepared.
The UPMS will cover the following aspects of urban planning and management
- physical planning
- institutional arrangements
- policy and legislation
- capacity building needs
- public participation
- community awareness
|
Priority low-lying areas for investment will be determined by poor or declining living conditions, potential to support job creation and economic growth, and other factors as may be agreed upon in the participatory approach to the UPMS.
