Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic underscored the necessity for resilient built environments, emphasizing the role of Green Spaces in mitigating the impacts of pandemics within urban settings. This study evaluates the effectiveness of Green Spaces in fostering pandemic resilience within Jos Metropolis, Nigeria, through the lens of architectural composition within urban design. The objectives include: examining the relationship between Green Spaces of architectural composition and sustainable urban design, investigating their role in pandemic resilience, and assessing the mediating effects of Green Spaces in this context. A positivist approach was adopted, using a quantitative methodology on a sample of 384 residents, calculated with Cochran’s formula (Cochran, 1977). Findings reveal significant interconnections between architectural composition in the built environment and pandemic resilience, mediated by Green Spaces. These results highlight the necessity for robust urban planning policies prioritizing green infrastructure and active community engagement. The study recommends targeted investment in green technologies and comprehensive education initiatives to enhance urban resilience and sustainability.
