Synopsis Urban Transport in the Developing World by : Harry T. Dimitriou
Policy-making for urban transport and planning of economies in the developing world present major challenges for countries facing rapid urbanisation and rampant motorisation, alongside growing commitments to sustainability. These challenges include: coping with financial deficits, providing for the poor, dealing meaningfully with global warming and energy shortages, addressing traffic congestion and related land use issues, adopting green technologies and adjusting equitably to the impacts of globalisation. This book presents a contemporary analysis of these challenges and new workable responses to the urban transport problems they spawn.

Synopsis Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals Through Infrastructure Development by : Popescu, Cristina Raluca Gh.
Infrastructure development presents significant challenges for both developing and developed countries, hindering their progress in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Governments often struggle to effectively leverage the necessary resources and expertise for financing and managing infrastructure projects, resulting in untapped potential for sustainable and inclusive development. Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals Through Infrastructure Development, edited by Cristina Raluca Gh. Popescu, Poshan Yu, and Yue Wei, offers a comprehensive guide to address these challenges. Focusing on public-private partnerships (PPPs) as a transformative solution, the book equips policymakers, investors, practitioners, and researchers with the essential knowledge and tools needed to navigate the complexities of infrastructure development and leverage the expertise and resources of the private sector. By showcasing successful case studies, analyzing critical success factors, and providing valuable insights into the implementation of PPPs in both developing and developed countries, this book becomes an indispensable resource for driving progress towards the SDGs. Covering crucial topics such as financing, risk management, legal frameworks, and sustainability considerations, it empowers readers to make informed decisions and foster collaborative partnerships between the public and private sectors. Through its comprehensive roadmap, this book enables stakeholders to unlock the full potential of sustainable and inclusive infrastructure development, paving the way for a prosperous future for all.

Synopsis Management and Sustainability in the Belt and Road by : Andrew W.H. Ip
China’s Belt and Road Initiatives (BRI) is an ambitious infrastructure project conceived in 2013 by President Xi Jinping with development and investment initiatives stretching from Asia and Europe that reflect the original Silk Road with business networks through countries such as Afghanistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan, as well as India and Pakistan, spanning a route of more than 4,000 miles and history that can be dated back more than 2,200 years. Given the background of China’s unique approach in fighting COVID-19, and against the backdrop of sluggish economic growth, innovation, and management, sustainable development of BRI will be the key and the driving force for the post-pandemic economic recovery of many countries, especially as BRI countries now account for nearly 30% of China’s foreign trade and 15% of outward direct investment. The vision to create a vast network of railways, energy pipelines, highways, and streamlined border crossings to expand the international use of Chinese currency and improve connectivity to China is good foresight and proved fortuitous when the COVID-19 pandemic came to plague the world, and amid the conflicts between the United States and China as well as the war between Russia and Ukraine. Since the inception of BRI, many books have been written to cover topics ranging from globalization to detailing how China’s business and politics are a major motivation for China’s overseas economic activities with case studies and practices, yet few of these books provide a structured approach to the sustainable management of BRI projects. This book is about how to manage the innovation, sustainability, and business necessary to make BRI work and how to handle the issues, problems, and crises that may arise in the process. Participants of BRI projects can take on many different roles, but ultimately, it is team effort and leadership that creates successful projects. Here, readers will find guidelines and insights to survive and prosper in a myriad of BRI opportunities and risks. Most important of all, this book provides a glimpse of different approaches for success in BRI projects, including sustainability, environmental issues, social and political aspects, technology, choice of industry, project management, education and training, governance, and many more.

Synopsis Rural Road Engineering in Developing Countries by : Jasper Cook
Rural Road Engineering in Developing Countries provides a comprehensive coverage of the planning, design, construction, and maintenance of rural roads in developing countries and emerging nations. It covers a wide range of technical and non-technical problems that may confront road engineers working in the developing world, focusing on rural roads which provide important links from villages and farms to markets and offer the public access to health, education, and other services essential for sustainable development. Most textbooks on road engineering are based on experience in industrialised countries with temperate climates or deal only with specific issues, with many aspects of the design and construction of roads in developing regions stemming from inappropriate research undertaken in Europe and the USA. These approaches are frequently unsuitable and unsustainable for rural road network environments, particularly in low to middle income countries. This book takes on board a more recent research and application focus on rural roads, integrating it for a broad range of readers to access current information on good practice for sustainable road engineering in developing countries. The book particularly suits transportation engineers, development professionals, and graduate students in civil engineering.

Synopsis The Belt and Road Initiative Green Development Case Studies Report 2020 by : BRI International Green Development
This is an Open Access book. In accordance with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, it showcases 17 projects under the framework of Belt & Road Initiative (BRI). These projects cover ninefields, namely, biodiversity and ecosystem, clean energy, clean water, sustainable transportation, solid waste treatment, sustainable consumption and production, green buildings, sustainable foodproduction and corporate social responsibility. Aiming at achieving green development, these projects, in their implementation, adhere to the concept of ecological civilization, combine China’s strict environmental protection systems and international standards, and take various measures of environmental protection based on the conditions of the local environment. These measures include joint efforts with local governments, businesses and communities, optimizating of design and construction plans, strict controling over different types of pollutants, and in situ conservation of species and ecosystems.The experience and practice of these 13 projects set an example for the latecomers.
