Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs |
Slum = overcrowded; physical/legal aspect; poor/informal housing; unsafe water/sanitation; insecurity of tenure (UN description)
slum dwellers seek: optimising house COST; SECURITY; journey to WORK; quality of SHELTER; personal SAFETY
45sq.m room = 13ppl.
Materials of cities for the future: crude brick, cement blocks, recycled plastic, straw, bamboo, mud, tin, chains, scrap wood, scrap metal
sites: pavement; low-lying areas (flood); highway/railway lines; creeks
1/5 dwellings have toilet ; 1 tap per 200-8,000 ppl
slum typologies (formal ; informal)
metro core = 20% Mumbai:
formal: tenements (hand-me-downs/built for poor), public housing, hostels
informal: squatters (legal/illegal), pavement dwellers
periphery = 80% Mumbai
formal: private rental, public housing
informal: private subdivisions, squatters (legal/illegal), refugee camps
