dc.description.abstractThis research investigates the disparities between planned and implemented land uses in Nansana Division, focusing on the causes and implications of these disparities. Utilizing satellite imagery, GIS analysis, and qualitative interviews with key stakeholders, the study explores the extent to which actual land use diverges from official land use plans. The findings reveal significant discrepancies, including urban expansion, infrastructure development, and loss of green spaces. Root causes such as regulatory challenges, economic pressures, and social dynamics are identified through thematic analysis of stakeholder perspectives. Evaluation of the current land use implementation process highlights weaknesses in enforcement, resource allocation, and community engagement. Based on these findings, strategies are proposed to address the disparities and improve urban planning outcomes. Research contributes to a better understanding of the complexities surrounding land use planning and implementation in rapidly urbanizing contexts, with implications for sustainable urban development worldwide.en_US
