| dc.description.abstract | The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed significant vulnerabilities in urban systems worldwide, demanding a paradigm shift in urban planning and design. In the Nigerian context, where urbanization is rapidly expanding, enhancing the resilience of cities to pandemics has become an urgent priority. It is against this background that this paper utilizes a systemic review approach to explore the role of landuse planning in bolstering the resilience of Nigerian cities against future pandemics. It particularly questions the vulnerability of Nigerian cities - identifying why, how, and extent. It examines the challenges faced by Nigerian cities during the COVID-19 crisis, identifies key strategies for resilient landuse planning, and highlights the potential benefits and opportunities associated with proactive planning interventions. The article concludes by emphasizing the need for collaborative efforts among stakeholders to ensure sustainable and resilient Nigerian cities post-COVID-19. The paper offers insights and recommendations to policymakers, urban planners, and other stakeholders engaged in urban development in Nigeria by identifying crucial strategies and best practices. | |
