Description

All cities face varying levels of economic, social, and institutional vulnerability. This volume from the cSUR-UT Series: Library for Sustainable Urban Regeneration provides an in-depth look at the realities of vulnerable urban spaces. A significant portion of the global urban population lives in substandard informal settlements, such as slums or squatter areas. With slum dwellers currently making up one-third of the 3 billion people in cities, the scale of this challenge is immense. Projections suggest that without effective action, the number of people living in these conditions could double within the next 30 years. Addressing the improvement of vulnerable urban areas is a primary target of the Millennium Development Goals. This book explores the strategies and innovations needed to tackle these urgent global issues. It serves as a vital resource for those studying urban regeneration and the socio-economic challenges facing modern cities.
