What is meant by 'sub-standard settlements', and why do we use this term? How important are sub-standard settlements for the population in the four case countries?

Which public policies are directed towards them?

  • How does the politics of fast growing cities shape urban inequalities?
  • What are the main policies to address these inequalities, especially with regards to sub-standard settlements?
  • How do civil society organizations mobilise to address those inequalities and deprivations?
