“…Studies have highlighted the uneven representation of men in CDAs (Akinsorotan and Olujide, 2007;Oyalowo, 2021). Others have shown undue external influences by government or traditional rulership within CDAs to push certain agendas (Muse and Narsiah, 2015). There have been tensions with local government authorities (Oyalowo, 2021) and co-option of power by CDA leadership (Muse and Narsiah, 2015).…”

“…people just forget about government and then people started their own government by themselves" (Olaolu, Phone Interview Participant, September 14, 2020). Interestingly, CDAs were originally set up by the government to promote public participation in urban governance (Muse and Narsiah, 2015), and for open communication with the local government on community needs for planning (Oyalowo, 2021). The LASG itself has engrained CDAs into law, itemizing rules of conduct/organization (Oyalowo, 2021).…”

Urban coastal megacities like Lagos face flooding challenges that may be exacerbated by climate change in the future. Through an urban political ecology lens, this study engages with the dynamics of politics and power that produce differentiated flood impacts and adaptation strategies. Data from telephone interviews of 21 Lagos residents across the mainland and island areas reveal people's understanding of their flood vulnerabilities within the wider socio-political context of Lagos. In particular, state failure in the provisioning of services, amenities, and overall flood protection, shapes flood risk in Lagos. In addition, income and access to material resources inform people's experiences and ability to cope with flooding. Furthermore, citizens apply localized strategies to prepare for and cope with flooding events, particularly through Community Development Associations (CDAs). These localized strategies have implications for transformative resilience. However, these forms of endogenous resilience cannot replace attention to wider urban governance challenges in cities like Lagos.

“…The concept of participatory public budgeting can be considered in two financial terms for public spectrum actually related to public budget spectrum especially for developing countries. On the other hand, the participatory budgeting process must also provide global financial integration, and it also provides a framework for co-operation for each public purpose [14].

In this study, we aim to put forth the participatory budget's structural effects aimed at the future along a participatory spectrum especially for developing countries in OECD. The formation of the structural framework of a participatory budget take important place both in clarifying the internal dynamics of the participatory spectrum and in ensuring structural harmony between the OECD member countries. In this stage, it should be put forth both the redistributive effects of a participatory budget and consultative structural location in its forming process that are related to be improved citizen awareness of councilors in their wards via public contributing. In other hand, this approach contains also the process that is increased resident control over the allocation of some resources. Whichever case is in developed stages for a developing country that regardless of the location, the participatory budget is an audit budget and this public locational position is an indispensable practice of fiscal transparency. This structural importance of participating budget come out from this improved intergenerational institutionally structure to understanding for especially developing countries and OECD has determined some important fact in aimed terms as its member countries for these countries to developing process which are also meaningful in todays. In this context, the participatory budget fact has creative location as a corner stone for developing countries which contribute to improvement a fiscal stability in these countries as a meaningful phenomenon within OECD's general aims.
