Organization and managementPublic Green agricultural heritage� Creation of greenbelts in

public space� Promotion of urban

agriculture� Protection of natural

conservation areas and wetlands

IDENTIFIED SHORTCOMINGS

Criteria Shortcoming

Participation and consensus � Identification of stakeholderswas done by professionals andsector officials. Views of theelite in society were consideredimportant than the grassrootspeople ( social exclusion)

Integration of social, economic, and environmental dimensions of growth

�Lack of a Social ImpactAssessment (SIA). No alternativeresettlement plans were made forthe residents who were evicted fromthe CBD�Formal land delivery based on theKCMP supply only limited and suchland is rarely accessible to poorpeople. They set standards of amillennium city with high priceswhich ordinary citizens cannotafford.


Organization and management � No clear-cut funding system fortarget implementation

� No explicit urban indicators tounambiguously shape, support,and guide logical framework ofKCMP. E. g. when will knowthat the quality of life hasimproved, or that equity hasbeen promoted?
