Socio-economic atlas of Kenya: Depicting the national population census by county and sub-location

The Socio-Economic Atlas of Kenya is the first of its kind to offer high-resolution spatial depictions and analyses of data collected in the 2009 Kenya Population and Housing Census . The combination of geographic and socio-eco - nomic data enables policymakers at all levels, development experts, and other interested readers to gain a spatial understanding of dynamics affecting Kenya. Where is the informal economic sector most prominent? Which areas have adequate water and sanitation? Where is population growth being slowed effectively? How do education levels vary throughout the country? And where are poverty rates lowest? Answers to questions such as these, grouped into seven broad themes, are visually illustrated on high-resolution maps. By supplying precise information at the sub-location level and summarizing it at the county level, the atlas facilitates better planning that accounts for local contexts and needs. It is a valuable decision-support tool for government institutions at different administrative levels, educational institutions, and others. Three organizations – two in Kenya and one in Switzerland – worked together to create the atlas: the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS), the Nanyuki-based Centre for Training and Integrated Research in ASAL Development (CETRAD), and the Centre for Development and Environment (CDE) at the University of Bern. Close cooperation between KNBS, CETRAD, and CDE maximized synergies and knowledge exchange.

Report of the regional workshop on microdata documentation and dissemination (IHSN Toolkit)

The Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) Subregional Headquarters for the Caribbean, in collaboration with the World Bank, conducted a week-long Regional Workshop on Microdata Documentation and Dissemination. The workshop, which was funded by the Partnership in Statistics for Development in the Twenty-First Century (PARIS21) and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), was held at the Hilton Hotel and Conference Centre in Port of Spain, Trinidad, from 26 to 30 April 2010. The main objective of the workshop was to provide training to member States on the Microdata Management Toolkit. This toolkit was developed by International Household Surveys Networks (IHSN) to assist in the documentation, dissemination and preservation of household survey, census and microdata in accordance with international standards and best practices. The training was organized in response to numerous requests by directors of statistics in the region for the development of capacity in that area. It was specifically timed to meet the training needs of those offices ahead of the 2010 round of Population and Housing Censuses.

The impact of migration and intergenerational changes on the Cuban family in the United States

This study examines changes in the Cuban family in the United States produced by time, migration, and the rise of new generations. The thesis will use a data set extracted from the 5% Public Use Microdata Series (PUMS) of the U.S. Decennial Census of Population for the years 1970, 1980 and 1990. Contingency table analysis and comparison of means were used to examine various family-related variables. The analysis points to changes in the traditional Cuban family towards less traditional family arrangements. The multigenerational feature of the Cuban household has diminished as the elderly have become independent and are more likely to be living on their own. Although female labor participation remains high, the occupational patterns of the first generation of Cuban women have diversified and a new trend has emerged for the second generation. The second generation of Cuban women demonstrates a strong inclination for white-collar occupations. Fertility rates remain low.

El crecimiento, densificación y ordenación de la ciudad difusa en Galicia: desarrollo urbanístico del área urbana de la Ría de Vigo 1990-2010

El área urbana localizada en el contorno de la ría de Vigo se vino comportando hasta finales de los años ochenta del siglo XX como una verdadera "ciudad difusa", entendida la difusión como la forma de urbanización de baja densidad que todavía conserva unas características y una funcionalidad propiamente urbanas, aportadas por la malla tradicional parroquial de caminos y núcleos de población. Esta Tesis demuestra que en el período de veinte años transcurrido entre 1990 y 2010, el área, en la que ya se apreciaban fenómenos de naturaleza metropolitana y policentrismo, experimentó una transformación basada en los factores y formas de urbanización estudiados en otras áreas y ciudades intermedias de similares dimensiones. Para la delimitación del ámbito de estudio se consideraron las diferentes dimensiones y escalas de áreas funcionales utilizadas en distintos estudios y planes territoriales, eligiéndose el que toma como referente principal la Ría de Vigo como soporte de la conurbación polinuclear de su contorno. Para investigar el desarrollo urbanístico operado en el período se estudiaron los factores y formas de urbanización característicos de la urbanización en territorios de baja densidad en esta época, y las variables de densidad es de población y vivienda, primacía y polaridad territorial, ritmos de edificación, planeamiento urbanístico y territorial, actividades económicas, movilidad, desplazamientos residenciatrabajo y vacíos urbanos. Las conclusiones permiten observar como el crecimiento residencial descentralizado, que se ha dado principalmente en el litoral, y la localización periférica de las actividades y dotaciones públicas han introducido elementos de dispersión y fragmentación espacial y social, así como las nuevas y potentes infraestructuras viarias, que han mejorado los desplazamientos a costa de una dependencia abusiva del vehículo privado, y han comenzado a amenazar la sostenibilidad del sistema. La planificación de ordenación territorial a escala metropolitana y el planeamiento urbanístico, que se comenzaron a utilizar con normalidad en esta época, se vislumbran como una oportunidad para reconducir el proceso, integrando los territorios genéricos surgidos entre las nuevas infraestructuras y dotaciones y la malla tradicional, así como los vacíos urbanos susceptibles de compactación, protegiendo aquellos otros vacíos que deben constituir la principal reserva ecológica: Los montes en mano común y la Ría de Vigo. La necesidad de una planificación operativa, sostenible y participativa, que integre la ordenación territorial, la gestión integral de los recursos de la Ría, y articule las diferentes competencias y escalas, la gobernanza , la participación ciudadana y el mercado, se considera la principal conclusión para el futuro. ABSTRACT The urban area located around the Ría de Vigo* used to behave like a “diffused city” until the late 1980s, understanding this difussion as the low-density urbanization that still today exhibits ‘urban’ characteristics and functionality, given by the traditional network of parish paths and town cores. This Thesis shows that during the twenty-year period from 1990 to 2010, this area, which previously showed signals of polycentrism and metropolitan character, started a transformation based on the factors and ways of urbanization studied in other areas and intermediate cities of similar dimensions. In order to demarcate the scope of this study, different dimensions and functional area scales previously used in other studies have been taken into account, choosing the one that takes the Ría de Vigo as the main reference and the basis of the polynuclear conurbation of its surroundings. To research the urban development in this period, factors and ways of urbanization regarding lowdensity territories have been considered, as well as some variables like density of population and housing, territorial primacy and polarity, building rates, territorial planning, economic activities, mobility, home-to-work trips and urban holes. Conclusions allow us to point out how the decentralised residential growing (that occurred mainly on the litoral surface) and the periferic localization of the activities and public facilities, have created elements of “sprawl” and spacial and social fragmentation, which, together with the new and powerfull road infraestructures network (that made the movements easier by means of an abusive dependence on the private vehicle), have started to threaten the sustainability of the system. The planification of the territorial ordinance at metropolitan scale and the urban planning, that in that time started to be established, can be considered as an opportunity to get things back on track, integrating the territories risen up from the new infrastructures and facilities and the traditional network together with the urban holes liable to be compacted, with a special protection of the spaces that must be the main ecological reserve: the communal forests and the Ría de Vigo. The need of a sustainable and participatory operative planification, able to integrate the territory planning, the integral management of resources and the citizen involvement and the market, has to be considered as the main goal for the future.

Asuntopolitiikka ja vieraskielisen väestön alueellinen keskittyminen Helsingissä vuosina 1992-2005

The aim of the thesis was to study the extent of spatial concentration of immigrant population in Helsinki and to analyse the impact of housing policy on ethnic residential segregation in 1992-2005. For the purpose of the study, immigrant population was defined based on the language spoken at home. The theory of residential segregation by Andersson and Molina formed the main theoretical framework for the study. According to Andersson and Molina ethnic residential segregation results from different dynamic intra-urban migration processes. Institutionally generated migration, i.e. migration patterns generated by various housing and immigrant policies and procedures, is one of the central factors in the development of ethnic segregation. The data of the study consisted of population and housing statistics and housing and immigrant policy documents of Helsinki municipality. Spatial concentration of immigrant population was studied both at district and building levels using GIS-methods and statistical methods. The housing policy of Helsinki municipality was analysed using a method created by Musterd et al. Musterd et al. categorise two types of policy approaches to residential segregation: spatial dispersion policy and compensating policy. The housing policy of Helsinki has a strong focus on social mixing and spatial dispersion of housing stock. Ethnic segregation is regarded as a threat. The importance of ethnic communities and networks is, however, acknowledged and small-scale concentration is therefore not considered harmful. Despite the spatial dispersion policy, the immigrant population is concentrated in the eastern, north-eastern and north-western suburbs of Helsinki. The spatial pattern of concentration was formed already at the beginning of the 1990's when immigration to Finland suddenly peaked. New immigrant groups were housed in the neighbourhoods where public housing was available at the time. Housing policy, namely the location of new residential areas and public housing blocks and the policies of public housing allocation were key factors influencing the residential patterns of immigrant population in the 1990's. The immigration and refugee policies of the state have also had an impact on the development. The concentration of immigrant population has continued in the same areas in the beginning of the 2000's. Dispersion to new areas has mainly taken place within the eastern and north-eastern parts of the city or in the adjacent areas. The migration patterns of native population and the reasonably rapid changes in the housing market have emerged as new factors generating and influencing the ethnic residential segregation in Helsinki in the 2000's. Due to social mixing and spatial dispersion policies, ethnic segregation in Helsinki has so far been fairly small-scale, concentrated in particular housing blocks. The number of residential buildings with a high share of immigrant population is very modest. However, the number of such buildings has doubled between 1996-2002. The concentration of immigrant population concerns mainly the public housing sector. The difference in the level of concentration between the public housing sector and privately owned housing companies is remarkable.

The Modern Urban Cartography of Present-day Bratislava.

Following an extensive survey of sources on urban development and comparative analyses of Bratislava and other major Central European cities and Slovak regional centres, Divinsky completed a detailed study of Bratislava's spatial structure using the most recent approaches of the so-called Belgian school. He also produced an intraurban regionalisation of Bratislava as a multi-structural interactive model, mapped and characterised by the cardinal parameters, processes, trends and inequalities of population and housing in each spatial element of the model. The field survey entailed a seven-month physical investigation of the territory using a "street by street, block by block, house by house and locality by locality" system to ensure that no areas were missed. A second field survey was carried out two years later to check on transformations. An important feature of the research was the concept of the morphological city, which was defined as "a continuously built-up area of all urban functions (i.e. excluding agricultural lands and forests lying outside the city which serve for half-day recreation) made up of spatial-structural units fulfilling certain criteria". The most important criteria was a minimum population density per unit of no less than 650 persons per square kilometre, except in the case of units totally surrounded by units of higher densities, where it could be lower. The morphological city as defined here includes only 36% of the territory of the administrative city, but 95% of the popula tion, giving a much higher population density which better reflects the urban reality of Bratislava.

San Luis : Del empleo industrial al refugio estatal : Cambios y desplazamientos en la estructura ocupacional

A partir de la implementación de las leyes de promoción industrial, en la Provincia de San Luis se configuró una estructura sectorial del empleo con características particulares respecto de la del resto del país. En efecto, hasta la década de 1990, el sector secundario de la economía concentraba aproximadamente el 50 de los ocupados. Sin embargo, desde 1991 este escenario se modifica y aumentan los ocupados en el sector terciario de la economía. La pérdida de peso de la industria como generadora de empleo no fue compensada por un incremento de otros sectores productivos: las ramas que muestran un comportamiento expansivo son Servicios y Sector Público. Como resultado de estos desplazamientos, se modificaron también la estructura de las ocupaciones y las calificaciones requeridas: quienes se habían capacitado laboralmente trabajando en la industria se encuentran hoy en un escenario en el cual sus calificaciones han perdido valor en un mercado que ahora demanda distintos saberes y capacidades. Frente a esto, el empleo estatal y las ocupaciones de baja calificación en el sector Servicios configuran un refugio, una alternativa a la desocupación. Este trabajo analiza los cambios, rupturas y continuidades en la estructura ocupacional de la Provincia de San Luis a partir de datos provenientes de los Censos Nacionales de Población y Vivienda y de la Encuesta Permanente de Hogares
