Slum Development
Slum development involves improving informal, often under-resourced neighborhoods known as slums. This process includes upgrading housing quality, providing better access to sanitation, clean water, electricity, and transportation, and enhancing overall living conditions. The goal is to integrate these communities into the broader urban fabric, promote health, safety, and economic opportunities, and ensure residents have dignity and stability. Effective slum development combines infrastructure improvements with community participation, sustainable planning, and policies that empower residents, ultimately transforming unsafe or unhealthy areas into thriving, equitable neighborhoods.
