Managing the Urban Environment of Santo Domingo, the Dominican Republic

Abstract

This article brings the contemporary thinking and practice of Urban Environmental Management (UEM) to the solution of real problems in a major city of a developing country in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). Such cities face more immediate problems than the developed world and have fewer resources to deal with them. The study first considers the context of the Dominican Republic and then reviews issues of poverty alleviation, industry, sewage and sanitation, water, energy, transportation and finance in Santo Domingo, the Dominican Republic. Finally, it proposes a 5-year plan to help solve the urban environmental problems of Metropolitan Santo Domingo, the largest city in the Caribbean, utilizing a real-world database and a limited budget.
