Summary, etc |
"This is the first book to address future informal <br/> settlements at the global scale. It argues that to foster <br/> favourable conditions for the sustainable evolution of <br/> future informal cities, planners must consider the same <br/> issues that are paramount in formal urban developments, <br/> such as provision of: - balanced land uses - energy <br/>efficiency and mobility - water management and food <br/>sufficiency - governance and community participation - <br/>productivity and competitiveness - identity and sense of <br/> place Planning and Design for Future Informal Settlements <br/> makes a call for responsible action to address the urban <br/> challenges of the developing world, suggesting that the <br/> vitality of informality, coupled with spatial design and <br/> good management, can support the efficient use of <br/> resources in better places to live. The book analyses the <br/> strengths and weaknesses of informal urbanism and the <br/> challenges faced by the fast growing cities of the <br/>developing world. Through case studies, it demonstrates <br/> the contributions and limitations of different attempts to<br/> plan ahead for urban growth, from the creation of formal <br/>housing and urban infrastructures for self-built dwellings<br/> to the improvement of existing informal settlements. It <br/> provides a robust framework for planners and designers, <br/> policy-makers, NGOs and local governments working to <br/> improve living conditions in developing cities"--<br/> |cProvided by publisher. |
