The Role of Sustainable Development in Alleviating Poverty in Major Port-Cities

  • “For a long time it was not a question of building the city with the

port but more of building the city in the place of the port. The delocalisation of port functions several decades ago, already caused by the requirements for larger spaces, meant that wide areas of docks and quaysides no longer suitable for the requirements of port activities became available.”

  • “Driven by the considerable expansion of international transport, the

city and the port are obliged to talk more with each other so as to live

  • together. However much still needs to be invented in order to

facilitate the integration of port functions with urban functions.”

Statistics & Economics

  • Luanda is home to some of the most

impoverished people on Earth, especially when considering the city’s current level of relatively advanced development. About 30%

  • f the nation lives in Luanda and of those,

roughly 54% live in poverty.

  • The city s home to roughly 2.9 million people
  • Luanda is one of the most expensive cities in

the world, especially for non-citizens, as recent duties, tariffs, taxes have made the importation and sale of goods extremely expensive, as well as certain services.

1. Angola has a long history of cooperation with international institutions, both public and private, including:

  • The World Bank & The IMF
  • Halliburton, BP, & Chevron
  • McKinsey & Bechtel
  • Deloitte & Bloomberg
  • Coca-Cola & Maersk

2. Originally ruled by the Portuguese, Angola gained independence in 1975, by which time most of the major cities in the nation had been developed, to an extent.

Transportation

Luanda requires major investments in the redevelopment of the sector’s existing structures as well as a redesign of mass- transportation hubs. There are several programs underway aimed at alleviating the associated concerns as well as several proposals targeting congestion and environmental concerns –

  • 1. BRT systems
  • 2. Higher capacity taxis
  • 3. Street-integrated rail systems
  • 4. Improvement and construction of additional air- and

marine-based hubs (see:

  • 1. Currently, residents of Luanda rely on various modes of

personal transportation while mass-transit allows for a sustainable tourist market –

  • Bicycles, scooters, and motorcycles
  • Passenger vehicles and small SUV’s
  • 2. Angolans spend ~6.2% of their annual income on

transportation-related costs.

Farming – It’s Everywhere! Literally.

  • Produce cultivated in Luanda includes “corn, sweet potato, cassava,

beans, tomatoes, onion, chilli peppers and others.”

  • Fruits and vegetables are grown across the province in “Hengue,

Lulemba, Cacola, Mbanza Calumbo, Mateia, Kakila,” and elsewhere.

A “Junk Market” in Luanda, Angola

  • Waste-management in Luanda is

a major issue as the city’s impoverished residents often

  • btain “new” goods at “junk

markets”

  • “Sarahjane Widdowson noted

that more people and

  • rganizations are taking
  • wnership as material flows

increase and the value of materials is increasingly

  • recognized. Though, Ranjith

Annepu highlighted the global nature of the question of who

  • wns waste. Ranjith Annepu and

Simon Peter Penney emphasized waste management and environmental costs should be factored into the selling prices of products and services.”

Commercialization beyond recycling?

Culture & Tourism

Luanda’s culture, like many coastal African nations, has been heavily influenced by European exploration – namely the Spanish. Prior to changing its name to Luanda, Angola’s capital city was called São Paulo da Assunção de Loanda, honoring the nation’s Portuguese heritage. Tourism in Luanda has benefitted greatly from the expansion of free markets throughout Angola and has attracted a great number of visitors to the region which has provided the city’s resident’s with jobs in related economic clusters (e.g. restaurants, sports and leisure, and transportation), especially in Luanda Sul, a small strip of land just South of the city’s center where beaches and resorts attract international tourists, much like Little Havana in Miami, Florida. Currently, those who live full-time in Luanda spend roughly 10% of their annual earnings at restaurants and 6.4% on sports and recreational activities.

Education

  • “[I]t is essential to ensure access

to necessary services to allow the full development of children's potential.”

There is a reason why this is the last section of this proposal as I believe education will be the most important tool moving

  • forward. As the generational gaps in Luanda, and throughout

the rest of Angola, are much smaller than those around in the developed world as the birth-rates in the nation are extremely high (albeit consistent for the previous 3 years). Therefore, there is a unique opportunity for each generation to take their lessons learned and apply them to the development process as the nation will reach ten million in population within the next ten years. Moreover, with the redesign and expansion of so many crucial sectors, there will be a great demand for human capital in the city. And if the Angolese government wishes to maintain such growth and expansion while keeping the flow of capital within the nation, it must work to educate each and every Angolan it can, of any age, skill, ability, and beyond. “Birth rate, crude (per 1,000 people)”
