| bandra to north. dharavi slum to south. mangroves and river in between. |
1600s: Koli Wada
1880s: Leather tanning; muslims from south; entrepreneurs bring village
1950s: Land Reclamation
1970s: Garment business; muslims from north; export to Italian industries
Dharavi = place where any poor man can live and make a living. struggle. generations. growth.
diversity. density. harmony.
Christmas and New Year: all religions celebrate together
politicians: what i think...
1970: offer housing; 60-70 sq. m; politicians control area
internal community justice: come together to sort problems. dialogue. no police.
80% ppl already sold house. what do ppl need?
leave them be - no govt. help
just infrastructure - maybe rent spaces for small businesses (they will pay)
- not public space (they use prayer rooms, outdoor sq. etc)
if ppl sell for short term money and move out, travel 60km to work, no life. cycle restarts.
must let communities live together.
everyone earns in Dharavi. all working.
