Drivers in the conservation of urban green space depletion: A case study of Wa Municipality, Ghana by Sabastian Batasuma, Wei Cao, Nathan Awelama Atigah, Emefa Acorlor Garnet, Joshua Kojo Bonzo, Justice Gyimah

“…Using statistical analysis and qualitative insights combined, the study revealed that while regulatory policies play a positive role in the preservation of green spaces (with a regression coefficient of Rp = 1.07, p < 0.01), both urbanization (Ur = -0.14, p < 0.05) and human behavior (Hb = -0.34, p < 0.05) significantly contribute to their decline.These findings highlight the critical need for robust legal frameworks and active community engagement to mitigate the negative effects of environmental degradation. In addition, the study emphasizes the need of reducing sprawl in cities and offers an adaptable framework that can be modified to other urban situations both within and outside of the region, offering policymakers and city planners relevant data. …”
