 Abstract

This study is on the housing as an aspect of socio-policy making. The total population for the study is 200 staff of ministry of environment, Akwa state. The researcher used questionnaires as the instrument for the data collection. Descriptive Survey research design was adopted for this study. A total of 133 respondents made conservators, environmental engineers, senior staffs and junior staffs were used for the study. The data collected were presented in tables and analyzed using simple percentages and frequencies

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

  • Background of the study

Housing plays a central role in effective social policy. Housing also has many attributes that are influential in people’s lives: physical, financial, locational, spatial, psychological and environmental. Although none of these attributes in themselves are automatic justification for government assistance and intervention in housing they do illustrate that there are many aspects of housing that can be instrumental in the health and well-being of individuals and communities, in the successful operation of the economy and in many aspects of the social and cultural attributes of society. The nature of the interactions and the arguments in favour of better integration of housing policy and social policy highlighted in this paper clearly suggest we should not be discussing housing policy and social policy separately, but rather housing as social policy. Those active in the housing sector the community, the private sector, non-profit organizations, Aboriginal groups and the three levels of government must work to achieve a number of objectives to mutually reinforce the interaction of housing and social policy,  Housing has to become a fully integrated member of the social policy sector and be recognized as an integral part of the social policy agenda, taking its place at the table with education and health care when spending priorities are discussed. Housing research and education have to be strengthened to highlight the benefits of housing and provide critical analysis, evaluation and research that lead to strong policy development. Administrative reforms and new agreements that clearly define roles and responsibilities, particularly the responsibility for leadership in funding, program and policy development, are required. Housing has become an “orphaned child” over the past couple of decades and there is confusion over who is responsible for what, and a lack of leadership. The housing policy field has become an area of shared neglect. Strong leadership is required to get housing on the social policy agenda.  Re-engaging the federal government is crucial to the development and delivery of successful social housing policy. Housing will never be adequately funded if left to the provinces and municipalities. Federal leadership is required to fund and initiate new programs, work to rationalize policy at the federal level, engage other federal departments to help integrate housing with other social and economic sectors and enhance research and development in the housing and social policy sectors. Encouraging provinces to play a role as funders and work with cities and neighborhoods to design comprehensive neighborhood plans and integrate housing strategies with other social and economic sectors. Integration of policy and program initiatives at the provincial level is as important as it is at the federal level. Provinces play an instrumental role in the education, health care, community economic development, income security and immigration sectors, and these are all areas where better integration of housing initiatives and housing policy is required. Encouraging municipalities to work with neighborhoods to build capacity develop neighborhood plans and provide the regulatory changes and environment that will facilitate the development of affordable and sustainable housing initiatives. Housing has important environmental dimensions. It is a major consumer of land, energy and raw materials. The way our communities are designed, a responsibility that rests largely with municipalities, has significant implications for both the environment and the provision of affordable housing. Developing greater capacity and expertise at the community level is required to enable communities and non-profit organizations to handle the added responsibilities in planning, needs assessment, program design and delivery that governments expect. More involvement at the community level is considered a positive feature in the housing field. It can lead to more effective program and policy outcomes. Unless the added responsibility is accompanied by capacity building and resources, however, the consequences can be disastrous

1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

The housing policy field has become an area of shared neglect. Strong leadership is required to get housing on the social policy agenda.  Re-engaging the federal government is crucial to the development and delivery of successful social housing policy. With this background the researcher wants to investigate housing as an aspect of socio-policy making.

1.3 OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY

The objectives of the study are;

  1. To investigate the causes of negligence of housing as an socio-policy making
  2. To investigate the benefit of housing to man
  3. To investigate the role housing play as effective socio-policy

1.4 RESEARCH HYPOTHESES

For the successful completion of the study, the following research hypotheses were formulated by the researcher;

H0: there are no benefits of housing to man

H1: there are benefits of housing to man

H02: there is no role housing play as an effective socio-policy

H2: there is role housing play as an effective socio-policy

1.5 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY

This study, which is primarily aimed at explaining the housing as an aspect of socio-policy making, will provide an insight into the problems associated with housing as socio-policy. This report would be of great benefit for Environmental students, to expose them to socio-policy making concerning housing. The findings will be useful for researchers to further generate knowledge in the field

 

 

 

1.6 SCOPE AND LIMITATION OF THE STUDY

The scope of the study covers housing as an aspect of socio-policy making. The researcher encounters some constrain which limited the scope of the study;

  1. a) AVAILABILITY OF RESEARCH MATERIAL: The research material available to the researcher is insufficient, thereby limiting the study
  2. b) TIME: The time frame allocated to the study does not enhance wider coverage as the researcher has to combine other academic activities and examinations with the study.
  3. c) Organizational privacy: Limited Access to the selected auditing firm makes it difficult to get all the necessary and required information concerning the activities.

1.7 DEFINTION OF TERMS

HOUSING: Housing refers to houses or buildings collectively; accommodation of people; planning or provision of accommodation by an authority; and related meanings. The social issue is of ensuring that members of society have a home in which to live, whether this is a house, or some other kind of dwelling, lodging, or shelter.

SOCIO-POLICY: Social policy is concerned with the ways societies across the world meet human needs for security, education, work, health and wellbeing. Social policy addresses how states and societies respond to global challenges of social, demographic and economic change, and of poverty, migration and globalization.

1.8 ORGANIZATION OF THE STUDY

This research work is organized in five chapters, for easy understanding, as follows

Chapter one is concern with the introduction, which consist of the (overview, of the study), historical background, statement of problem, objectives of the study, research hypotheses, significance of the study, scope and limitation of the study, definition of terms and historical background of the study. Chapter two highlights the theoretical framework on which the study is based, thus the review of related literature. Chapter three deals on the research design and methodology adopted in the study. Chapter four concentrate on the data collection and analysis and presentation of finding.  Chapter five gives summary, conclusion, and recommendations made of the study
