The sourcebook was prepared in 2008 by the World Bank Institute, with support from the Cities Alliance and UN-HABITAT.
Accompanying discs contain the actual sourcebook, while the book is a primer to the sourcebook. The discs have identical content, but one uses PowerPoint and the other uses Flash.
This multimedia sourcebook synthesises an extensive body of knowledge and experience in managing urban slums accumulated over the past 30 years. The key lessons learned and their implications for future work serve as a useful tool for capacity building and knowledge sharing for policy makers, practitioners, planning institutions, community groups, NGOs, and university students.
