Abstract:
Different slums exhibit different levels of resilience against the threat of eviction. However, little is known about the role of the social capital of the slum community in this context. This study investigates the factors contributing to slum resilience in the Lagos Metropolis, Nigeria, through a social capital lens. This study first investigates land allocation in slums, then the available social capital, and subsequently how this capital influences resilience to the threat of eviction in slums. Data were collected in two slum communities, in Lagos, through in-depth interviews and focus groups discussion. This study shows that land allocation is done by the traditional heads, contrarily to the mandate of the Nigeria Land Use Act of 1978. Furthermore, there is a form of structural social capital through the presence of government registered community development associations in the slums; however, their activities, decision-making process and the perception of the residents’ towards their respective associations, differs. This led to differences in trust, social cohesion and bonding ties among residents of the slum, thereby influencing resilience to the threat of eviction in slums. Since community group associations, through the appointed executives, drive the efficient utilization of social capital in slums, this study therefore recommends their restructuring in order to support a sustainable solution to the threat of eviction in slums in Lagos.

Abstract:
Covid-19 pandemic spreads more widely in Indonesia. As a developing country with high population growth, urban areas in Indonesia are getting denser along with the high urbanization rate. Limited land in urban areas generates slums, for example, in Surakarta. The slum management phenomenon in Surakarta, Indonesia, is the object of this case study research using Community-driven development (CDD) theory. Data on public participation in slum environment arrangement and management in Surakarta was collected using in-depth interviews, focus group discussion, and observation on and documentation related to the phenomenon. The result of the research showed some stages of slum arrangement in Surakarta: planning using FGD method conducted by citizens and stakeholders; implementing slum arrangement and management through repairing irrigation channel, providing feasible sanitation facility, building public open space, and developing Liquid Waste Processing Installation, and reviewing and evaluating the implementation of slum arrangement and management in Surakarta. The environment cleanliness and health maintaining behaviour is important to be habituated in urban communities to suppress Covid-19 transmission rate.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to examine the characteristics of slum areas and to analyze strategies for preventing and improving the quality of community empowerment-based slum settlements in Langara City, Konawe Islands Regency. This research method is descriptive qualitative with a case study approach, while the research informants are individuals and groups who are involved in the slum prevention and quality improvement program. The data were collected using in-depth interviews, observation, and document studies, while the data analysis techniques were carried out qualitatively. The results show that the indicators of a slum in Langara City are: the condition and quality of houses are generally less regular, dense, with minimal air and light circulation, environmental sanitation is not supported by wastewater disposal, access to settlements is relatively good, the garbage disposal system is not supported by landfills. Finally, limited distribution of net water, and the unavailability of fire protection. Furthermore, the strategy for preventing and improving the quality of slum based on community empowerment shows 1) slum prevention strategies with indicators: the high rate of community participation in attending counseling on the importance of maintaining environmental health and the high involvement of residents in preventing slums through cooperation, community service, and helping out; 2) slum quality improvement strategy with indicators: high capacity and community involvement in the renovation and restoration of slum shelters; and the low level of public awareness of joining the relocation program in slum pockets.

Abstract:
The increase in population every year triggers various problems including the accumulation of population in one particular area which can potentially lead to new slum areas. Information regarding the distribution of slum settlements has not been published, so people do not know the area they will be increasing or including the slum area. In overcoming these problems, a Geographic Information System (GIS) was designed to digitally map the distribution of slum areas using calculations based on PUPR Ministerial Regulation No. 14 of 2018 concerning Prevention and Quality Improvement of Slum Housing and Slum Settlements. The determination was calculated using 7 indicators and 16 criteria and resulted in 3 classifications of slum level consisting of light slums, medium slums, and heavy slums. The final result of this research is expected to help the relevant government and the community in knowing the distribution area of slums based on WebGIS. Black-box testing is used to test the functionality of the system that was built and get good results with details of all functions running and following the design stage. Testing the system interface was carried out using an online questionnaire filled out by 38 respondents, resulting in a percentage of 87.5% calculated using a Likert scale so that it was categorized as excellent.

Abstract:
This paper uses data collected for an MA Thesis to explore the effects of slum upgrading on security management in Soweto slums, Roysambu sub-county in Nairobi, Kenya. The study was guided by three objectives to establish social effect of slum upgrading on security management in Kahawa Soweto slums; to examine the economic effect of slum upgrading on security management in Kahawa Soweto slums; and to establish the challenges of security management in the slum upgrading programme for Kahawa Soweto Slums. The study adopted a descriptive research design and random sampling to select 318 respondents (main respondents) and 10 Key informants (K.I). Questionnaire was the main method of data collection while interview was used to collect data from K.I. Data collected was organized, and systematically interpreted thematically by use of graphs, frequency tables, and percentages. This study established the relationship between slum setting and rise of crime and insecurity in Kahawa Soweto slums in Roysambu sub-county in Nairobi, Kenya with 69.2% of respondents agreeing to this count. According to this study, poor roads, high poverty levels, low education levels, poor spatial designs/environmental design of slum area and housing, absence of police station and poor lighting predisposed the slum dwellers to crime and insecurity. According to this study slum upgrade will reduce crime and insecurity, given that special aspects such as improvement in spatial designs/environmental design of urban areas and housing with enhanced modern lighting will significantly reduce crime in slums by eliminating criminogenic and insecurity risk factors. Additionally, improved economic effects of slum upgrading on slum dwellers would build resilience to crime and insecurity. This includes; Job creation, provision of educational facilities such as vocational training institutes (polytechnics), basic education institutions (primary and secondary schools) as well as other skills enhancement institutions. Community empowerment aimed at income generating activities, construction of police station to provide security to the slum dwellers (77%), and construction of better roads (55.3%) were recommended to reduce crime and improved security management in Kahawa Soweto slums in Roysambu sub-county in Nairobi, Kenya.

Abstract:
Narratives around slums tend to amplify their negative attributes, often based on a sensorial assessment of their environment. This article talks about a study carried out in Kibera, the second largest slum in Africa located in Nairobi, Kenya, which examines how slums are morphologically constituted with respect to their socio-economic settings. The study stems from the author’s several years of work as a community design architect on slum upgrading projects, many of which were of a participatory nature. Given that slums exist outside of formal planning and lack documented development records, a basic approach to studying slums was adopted. This article uses analogies to expound on the link between the spatial-temporal formation of the slum and the socio-economic activities and practices of its residents. It goes on to show the crucial need for slum upgrading programmes to pay attention to this strong yet hidden interrelationship in order to meet the needs of the beneficiaries in a sustainable manner.

Abstract:
Purpose This paper aims to find answers to two research questions: What is the perception of the Moravia community on tourism in their neighbourhood? What are the conditions under which they can accept slum tourism? Design/methodology/approach The foundation of this paper was laid during a field trip to Medellin, Colombia, in March 2018. More than three weeks were spent in the neighbourhood of Moravia, one of Medellin’s “barrios” or slums, where a qualitative study was led. Semi-structured interviews with the local community were done around the neighbourhood. Findings The main finding of this research is the positive perception of slum tourism within the Moravia community. The researchers found that the locals are proud when outsiders visit to see their neighbourhood. The locals felt that, it breaks the prejudice surrounding their homes, and tourists are seen as spokespeople for the barrio. There are visible improvements made to the barrio owing to tourism. This research drew attention to the conditions under which this type of tourism can be accepted in the neighbourhood: community participation, interaction between hosts and tourists, education and respect of tourists and the visible improvements to the neighbourhood. Originality/value Slum tourism is an understudied topic in Colombia, especially in Medellin. By researching on the host perception on slum tourism, this paper contributes to literature on slum tourism from a new angle.

The area of ​​the slum area in Tungkal Ilir District, Tanjung Jabung Barat Regency is 225.4 ha. The condition of buildings, environmental roads, environmental drainage, clean water, sanitation, solid waste and fire protection, are indicators of slum levels. In accordance with these indicators, the relevant Regional Apparatus Organizations (OPD) carry out programs in efforts to deal with slums. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of slum settlement management programs on the sustainability of slum area handling programs. The sampling method used is purposive sampling with 100 community respondents in slum locations and Stratified sampling with 30 ASN respondents, this study uses questionnaires and interviews with related parties in data retrieval. Analysis test uses SEM (Structural Equation Modeling) method and data processing using SmartPLS (Partial Least Square) software. The results showed the t-statistic for the Integration Program variable towards the Sustainable Cities variable was 2.185> t-statistic (1.96). The original sample estimate value shows a positive value (0.199). which shows that the relationship pattern of the integration of the program handling slum areas with the sustainability of the program is positive, with a moderate level. The results show that the integration of the program indirectly affects sustainable cities through community participation and slum areas that have not been implemented optimally and tend to be in the middle so that programs and activities that are integrated and synergized by the Regional Government in implementing sustainable cities still need to be implemented.

Abstract Sustainable development is a challenge in urban development, especially in a slum area. Management of slum is not optimal, and several slums become slums again after upgrading due to the absence of environmental management, such as Mojosongo Housing, Surakarta City, Indonesia. This article aims to create policy recommendations for environmental quality improvement in slum. The research uses a quantitative method. Secondary data were obtained from related agencies regarding environmental conditions, population data, and policies related to slum management. Primary data was collected via observation and questionnaires to 30 respondents, consisting of natives and immigrants in Mojosongo Housing. The analysis technique uses a comparative analysis of data and literature review. The results show that social and economic aspects have been proven to cause a decrease in environmental quality. The challenge of slum management in strategic areas to be sustainable is via community empowerment of social and economic aspects of livelihoods. In addition, supervision and control of development for the public interest are recommended to be more effective by applying police power (an instrument of zoning regulation) and a taxation mechanism.

Abstract:
Abstract Ludhiana, the largest and highest populated city in Punjab, is the country’s most important industrial hub often referred to as Indian Manchester. The city is on an instantaneous urbanisation path, offering opportunities that attract migrants from nearby rural areas, districts, and even far distant cities. Much of this incoming population is socially and economically disadvantaged due to the city’s haphazard settlement and lacking affordable housing facilities; resulting in manifestation of slum squatters, accounting to 25% of the population. The Ludhiana Municipal Cooperation addresses the issue of slum settlement through Slum Free City Plan of Action (SFCPOA) -Ludhiana 2015, an initiative under the Rajiv Awas Yojana (RAY), which aims to upgrade and redevelop all existing slums, avert the emergence of new slums and bridge demand and supply gap of affordable housing. From the perspective of stakeholder’s experiences, this research intends to evaluate the success and constructed realities of several government initiatives directed at making Ludhiana slum-free. A sequential methodology involving semi-structured interviews, field surveys, field imaging and developing slum ontology based on sustainability and socio-economic parameters is adopted. This paper concludes that, despite the government of Ludhiana’s implementations; slums remain congested, economically unviable and with low community engagement. Furthermore, this study serves as an analytical prototype for future government plans to redevelop, rehabilitate, or resettle slum dwellers in a sustainable manner.

Gumelem village is one of the slums in the Pemalang Regency, Central Java Province. The area has characteristics such as high population density, the narrowness of the neighborhood road, the location of houses that coincide, the narrow house, and the house is inhabited by several families and does not have a private toilet. The formation of slums is an obstacle in regional development; for this, it is necessary to arrange the area. This study uses the Participatory Research Appraisal (PRA) method to ensure the active involvement of the target group community and place the community as a subject in the activation process. The research results show that social strengthening efforts in the community and government agencies in the management of the slum areas of Gumelem are essential to realizing the success of the slum structuring program.

Abstract:
The need to improve slum housing is a major urban planning agenda, especially in Africa and Asia. This article addresses whether it seems feasible to do this whilst helping achieve the 1.5 °C agenda, which requires zero carbon power along with enabling the Sustainable Development Goals. Survey data from Jakarta and Addis Ababa on the metabolism and liveability of slums are used to illustrate these issues. The article shows that this is possible due to advances in community-based distributed infrastructure that enable community structures to be retained whilst improving physical conditions. The urban planning implications are investigated to enable these ‘leapfrog’ technologies and a more inclusive approach to slums that enables in situ redevelopment instead of slum clearance, and which could be assisted through climate financing.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to describe public perceptions of people’s housing programs for handling slums in Malaysia. Malaysia has begun organizing and fostering communities that have lived in slums since 1998 in the 'slum-free Malaysia vision 2005' program, and today Malaysia can be said to have successfully resolved slums, through public housing programs. The type of research used is this research is descriptive qualitative, using accidental sampling as sampling technique. Data collection methods used are interview and documentation methods, with research instruments in the form of interview guidelines. The results showed that the community strongly agreed with the existence of The People’s Housing Program (PPR), especially for the lower middle class and poor people in Malaysia. This program is able to realize the dream of the poor to be able to have a place to live that is suitable for living with family. Furthermore, the program itself is acknowledged by the community as being able to deal with slum settlements in Malaysia, and the poor who are biased in occupying slum areas voluntarily move to the houses provided by this PPR. So, people's perception of the Public Housing Program is very supportive especially to deal with slums in Malaysia.

One reason for the emergence of slums is the Government's failure of policies and their implementation. This article aims to examine the prevention of slums settlements in the policy perspective of Law Number 1 of 2011 concerning Housing and Settlements Areas and the Regulation of the Minister of Public Works and Public Housing Number 14/PRT/M/2018 concerning Prevention and Quality Improvement of Slums. They are analyzed using a qualitative method with a normative juridical approach. The results of the analysis show that the slums prevention policy has several weaknesses; namely, prevention policy should start from planning not directly to control and supervision, slums prevention settlements is still focused on urban areas, slums prevention is not considered urgent, and there are some biases in the prevention of slums measurement of slums criteria which has the potential to make the policy of preventing slums settlements, not on target. For these reasons, the Government needs to make policies that are more operational in preparing plans of slums prevention; considering aspects of the causes of slums in policymaking; synergizing slum area improvement policies with slum prevention policies; campaigning for the importance of preventing slum in both urban and rural areas; refining slums criteria or indicators; involving stakeholders in the formulation and implementation of slum prevention policies; and increasing community social capital.

Abstract:
The handling of slums based on urban farming and community empowerment is oriented toward improving the welfare and independence of the community. This study aimed to (1) analyze the influence of business motivation, human resource capacity, community participation, and economic business management on the economic empowerment in the handling of slums; (2) analyze the direct and indirect effects of urban farming, community capacity, and capital support efforts to improve the welfare and independence of the community; and (3) formulate a sustainability model for community-based slum management in the Metro Tanjung Bunga area. The research approach used was a sequential explanatory design, which is a combination of quantitative and qualitative research, and data were obtained through observation, surveys, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The research findings show that business motivation, human resource capacity, community participation, and economic business management have a significant effect on economic empowerment. The direct influence of urban farming increases the welfare of the community by 27.66%, strengthens the capacity of the community to increase welfare by 55.95%, and provides business capital support to improve community welfare by 36.72%. Urban farming, community capacity-building, and business capital support provide a positive effect on improving the welfare and independence of the community in slums. Sustainability in slum settlements includes infrastructure, developing economic potential, and community participation.

Abstract:
This study describes community development in the preparation for a community action plan for slum management in DKI Jakarta. The case study chosen for this research is the Akuarium village. The existence of slums is an inseparable part of the development of a city. The slum area contributes to several problems such as population density, building conditions, ventilation, sanitation, garbage, drainage, environmental roads, lighting and building layout. In an effort to overcome these problems, it is important to develop a community development concept that emphasizes the participation of the community through collaborative work between the government and citizens in the development process. The research that has been done has not touched on the substance of the problem faced by the urban poor and how the community plays a role in supporting the program. The purpose of this research is to find out how community-based development patterns can encourage collaborative work of each actor in structuring slum villages in DKI Jakarta. In this study, the method used is qualitative with in-depth interviews and data processing using the Nvivo 12+ application. The results showed that the principles of community development, including integrated development, participation, sustainable development, empowerment, and human rights, greatly influence the collaborative work of various stakeholders in planning an Akuarium development action plan.

The purpose of this article is to identify the role of the community in dealing with the problem of slum housing in the city of Dhaka with several approaches, namely collaboration between organizations and the role of the community itself. Several programs that have been implemented to solve this problem are public housing, slum reconstruction program, and Approach to Basteess. The potential of the impoverished to improve their living conditions and hence their productivity and income is demonstrated by the housing projects implemented by non-governmental organizations. Living under these conditions can lead to a variety of negative consequences, including decreased health, increased pollution, the spread of illness, and even criminal conduct. It is considered a disease in the city to have slums. It is considered a disease in the city to have slums.

Abstract:
This article envisages slum dwellers' politics in Recife, Brazil as a realm of possibility in which care and recognition are central. Community leaders are its main facilitators as articulators of slum dwellers' needs and aspirations. The article's notion of slum politics is an elaboration of Chatterjee's (2004) ideas on popular politics as a “politics of the governed.“ Yet the article critiques the governmentality perspective for its inability to envisage a politics of hope and possibility. It distinguishes among slum politics, governmental politics (projects and programs), and electoral politics (voting), which are entwined and interdependent, but different. Zooming in on a community leader's urban agriculture project, the article argues that this project, which from an outsiders' perspective may be considered non-viable, provided slum dwellers with possibilities to strive for community solidarity and personal recognition. Slum politics, the article concludes, is about claiming the right to be counted and recognized, and about the care for the other.

Abstract We explored the facilitators and barriers to uptake of water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) interventions among slum dwellers in Kampala, Uganda using a socio-ecological perspective. This qualitative exploration used focus group discussions with community members and key informant interviews with community leaders and technocrats to collect data. Among facilitators to uptake of WASH interventions were susceptibility to WASH-related diseases and low WASH knowledge levels at individual level, peer practices at household level, and promotion of WASH at organizational level. At community and public policy levels, community engagement and empowerment, and formation and enforcement of ordinances and bye-laws, respectively, motivated slums dwellers to adopt WASH interventions. Conversely, individual knowledge, beliefs, language, and financial status inhibited individuals from taking up WASH interventions. Negative peer practices and upbringing at peer level; unsupportive environments, and engagement of communities at organizational level; cultural beliefs and lack of space at community level; and unexamplary leaders and political interference barred slum dwellers in Kampala from embracing the WASH interventions. Uptake of WASH interventions in the slum community is influenced by a cascade of facilitators and barriers across the socio-ecological realm. Hence, a multi-faceted approach targeting all stakeholders is required in planning and implementation of WASH interventions.

One of the village that get first priority in slums handling in in Semarang City based on mayor decree of Semarang’s number 050/801/2014 is Jatibarang Village. According the Ministry of Public Works through the KOTAKU (Kota Tanpa Kumuh) Program, in 2017 Jatibarang Village received funding for road and drainage construction. This research is to evaluate the slum reduction of road and drainage construction in a neighborhood. The method of research is quantitative and comparative through data calculation on 2 (two) criteria after handling and compari ed with baseline data. Based on the results of the research it can be seen that the slum handling of 2 (two) slum criteria did not give big impact to the slum value that is 40 before the handling and 30 after handling with the difference of 10 points. The results of this research indicate that there is still a need for handling slum reduction in this area. It is also necessary to evaluate the value of slum periodically of slum areas that have been set in order to know the changes that occur. involving the local community in the maintenance of settlement environment is necessary as well, so it is expected that the slum reduction increases, insteade of decreasing..

Abstract:
Urban livelihood asset is an accumulation of labor capital and financial capital. The existence of a slum area in the coastal area of Untia with an area of 7.13 ha of 740.10 ha of the total slum area in the city of Makassar. This area is a potential strategic accumulation of livelihoods in the human capital, institutional, physical, financial and environmental resources, but on the other hand also has a high level of vulnerability. This study aims to obtain an empirical situation regarding the lives of poor people in the slums of the Untia coastal area, Makassar City. The socio-economic conditions of the community, the use of space, the ownership status of land and buildings, the condition of infrastructure and facilities of settlements in coastal slums as a basis for the reconstruction of coastal slums handling models based on dynamic governance. The findings show that urban slum in coastal areas are very rapidly growing. Problems that continue along with various programs carried out by the government. All programs by the state and non-state have been carried out in an effort to eradicate slum areas, but in fact the poverty rate in the region continues to increase. Managing a slums settlement program can use a dynamic governance framework: thinking ahead, thinking again, and thinking across. All of these strategies have been internalized of digital information and communication technology.

Abstract:
Sub-Saharan Africa is the world’s least urbanized region but is ironically also the region with the largest proportion of urban slum dwellers. However, there exists limited understanding of the impact of slums on health in the region. To address this knowledge gap, we conducted a systematic search in PubMed, Google, and Google Scholar to identify and review studies examining the slum–health relationship in sub-Saharan African cities. Subsequently, we performed thematic analysis of 40 studies to identify themes that explain the health impact of slums in the region. The majority of studies characterize slums as health-damaging settings, where poverty and unfavorable environmental conditions pose threats to public health and safety. Only a handful of studies suggest a beneficial relationship between slums and health, in such areas as affordable housing provision, employment generation, and community cohesion. We argue that the literature’s overwhelming emphasis on the environmental risks of slums feeds into a neoliberal urban agenda that seeks to clear slums at the expense of their beneficial contributions to health. Accordingly, we advocate a shift in policy discourse, from static characterization of slums as health risks to a health-promotion agenda that emphasizes the housing and service rights of slum populations.

Abstract. Wotgali Village is a slum area. The aim of the current research is to find out the performance of slum base infrastructure using Lakip (Government Agency Accountability Report) of KOTAKU (City without Slums) Program. The first step was performed by identifying the initial settlement (base line), then some treatments on the facilities and infrastructure (finish line), performance evaluation stages of the preparation, planning, implementation, and sustainability stages. The research used qualitative and quantitative approach. Qualitative measurement began with a numerical assessment of the results on the level of regional slum. In addition, quantitative data used the Lakip simulation using results of the KOTAKU program stage performance. Results of the initial condition reach value of 32%. It is categorized as slight slums with an average sectoral slum of 36.68%. Basic infrastructure development which has final technical reached 24% and is included in slight slum with an average sectoral of 27.50%. The performance of LAKIP Kotaku was in preparation phase 90.46% (very good performance), planning stage was 89.93% (very good performance), implementation stage was 90.25% (very good performance), sustainability stage was 85.21% (better performance). Thus, the achievement of KOTAKU program is 85.19% with a range of value of 80-90. The value is included as better performance result. Results of the analysis can be concluded that level of slum can be reduced to 19% (not slum) by creating some improvements to basic facilities and infrastructure. In the following year, involving Lakip Performance, the planning stage can be enhanced through community participation and active involvement.

Abstract:
Management of housing and slum settlements is carried out in various forms of service and facilitation as follows: (1) fulfillment of decent and affordable housing needs through housing loans / subsidized housing loans and self-help housing development; (2) improving the quality of the settlement environment through the assistance of basic housing infrastructure and facilities, providing clean water facilities in water-prone settlements, structuring and rehabilitating slum settlements, empowering communities in the framework of strengthening economic capacity and improving social life; (3) institutionalizing a system for implementing housing and settlement development by involving the community as the main actor. Given the limited capacity of the government through the APBN and APBD in handling housing and slum settlements, the government took the decision to carry out handling of housing and slum settlements through the City Without Slum Program (KOTAKU). The implementation of the Tridaya approach in the KOTAKU program city of Semarang includes: (1) empowering local governments and communities through capacity building in the form of training and mentoring; (2) utilization of environmental facilities by improving the quality of the settlement environment through the procurement and repair of primary basic infrastructure and facilities as well as repair of unsuitable houses; and (3) community economic empowerment which is carried out through channeling with other programs in the field of Public Works and various activities carried out in the regions. To get a comprehensive picture of the program, researchers need to evaluate the policies of the Semarang City KOTAKU (City Without Slums) program in 2019.

Abstract:
The impact of socio-cultural outlooks on the acceptance of sustainability measures in a low-income context should be complemented by better understanding of socio-economic drivers to bridge the gaps between policy expectation and acceptance in social housing projects. The study attempts to explore the different aspects of well-being in determining the housing satisfaction of the residents of social housing under the slum rehabilitation schemes in Mumbai. Social housing offers considerably improved social and environmental sustainability components compared to slums; however, social acceptability remains low due to their location disadvantages. Using primary data collection from the sample of 298 households in Mumbai, the paper explores the varying levels of their housing satisfaction. The study found that economic opportunity is low in slum rehabilitation, mostly reflected in the job loss of the second earner, exacerbated by the change of work after shifting to social housing. Among other factors, location, accessibility of the building, household size and opportunity for social engagement play the most critical role in deciding the households’ perceived housing satisfaction with social housing compared to slums.

Abstract:
Slums are typically perceived as substandard eyesores, corrupt, makeshift, impoverished and crime-ridden. The growing literature on resilience challenged these perceptions, and promoted new debates on their ingenuity and adaptability to overcome external circumstances. Yet these debates are often limited to short term coping and adaptive capacity of slum dwellers. In this paper we look at long-term transformation of a slum over a forty-year period. Holling’s Adaptive Cycle model is a useful tool to study the transformations occurring within a slum. The four phases of the adaptive cycle are: conservation (K), creative destruction/release (Ω), reorganization (α) and exploitation (r). The Ω and α phases are together known as the “backloop” and are the focus of this paper. This paper explores how the residents of Pedda Jalaraipeta slum in Visakhapatnam use their social capital (bonding, bridging and linkages) to survive and recover from disasters. Based on empirical ethnographic findings, this paper shows that when slum dwellers collaborate with government or non-government agencies their community can recover and retain its unique social and cultural identity.

ObjectiveTo summarise the unfolding of the COVID-19 epidemic among slum dwellers and different social strata in the city of Buenos Aires during the first 20 weeks after the first reported case.DesignObservational study using a time-series analysis. Natural experiment in a big city.SettingPopulation of the city of Buenos Aires and the integrated health reporting system records of positive RT-PCR for COVID-19 tests.ParticipantsRecords from the Argentine Integrated Health Reporting System for all persons with suspected and RT-PCR-confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19 between 31 January and 14 July 2020.OutcomesTo estimate the effects of living in a slum on the standardised incidence rate of COVID-19, corrected Poisson regression models were used. Additionally, the impact of socioeconomic status was performed using an ecological analysis at the community level.ResultsA total of 114 052 people were tested for symptoms related with COVID-19. Of these, 39 039 (34.2%) were RT-PCR positive. The incidence rates for COVID-19 towards the end of the 20th week were 160 (155 to 165) per 100 000 people among the inhabitants who did not reside in the slums (n=2 841 997) and 708 (674 to 642) among slums dwellers (n=233 749). Compared with the better-off socioeconomic quintile (1.00), there was a linear gradient on incidence rates: 1.36 (1.25 to 1.46), 1.61 (1.49 to 1.74), 1.86 (1.72 to 2.01), 2.94 (2.74 to 3.16) from Q2 to Q5, respectively. Slum dwellers were associated with an incidence rate of 14.3 (13.4 to 15.4).ConclusionsThe distribution of the epidemic is socially conditioned. Slum dwellers are at a much higher risk than the rest of the community. Slum dwellers should not be considered just another risk category but an entirely different reality that requires policies tailored to their needs.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the processes and complexities of community participation in a water supply project for the urban informal poor in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Design/methodology/approach This paper reviews the performance of a community-based water governance entitled Dushtha Shasthya Kendra Model. The Model includes the local urban poor community with the formal urban service providers in the process of water supply. Using a case study of Karail slum in Dhaka, the paper affirms the potential of community engagement for successful implementation of water supply project by the formal organizations. Findings The opportunity of community participation by the urban poor helps them to be engaged with the formal organizations. Community engagement not only offers them access to water supply but also ensure formal/legal existence in the city. Despite the fact, the community initiative in the slum faces huge locally situated political and socioeconomic challenges. Addressing these complexities with a proper management may still provide a successful community-based effort for water supply to the urban poor in the slums. Originality/value The paper presents a case study of water supply system for the informal poor. Water scarcity in the slum is a serious problem in Dhaka city, though the formal authorities often forget the issue during policy making and planning. This study certainly offers a better understanding of complexity and potentiality of community-based water governance, which may further ensure community participation as well as equal access to water by the urban poor.

Abstract:
Slum settlements are one of the problems faced by almost all cities in Indonesia and even other developing countries. UU No. 1 of 2011(1) defines slum settlements as settlements that are unfit for habitation due to building irregularities, high building density levels, and the quality of buildings and facilities and infrastructure that do not meet the requirements. The problem that can be caused is creating inadequate settlements to support the survival of its inhabitants, resulting in a decrease in the welfare, quality and quality of life of the community (2). The Balikpapan city government issued a SK Walikota Balikpapan No. 188.45-667 / 2014(3) concerning the Determination of the Location of Slum Housing and Slum Settlements in the City of Balikpapan, there are a total of 282.20 Ha of slum areas spread across 6 urban villages in the city of Balikpapan. One of the areas stipulated in the decree is located in the Keluarahan Baru Ulu(4) , where this settlement is located close to the city center of Balikpapan. In addition, these slum settlements are located along the coast of Balikpapan Bay which has the potential to cause environmental degradation and disrupt the function of transportation facilities for crossing goods and people who are in direct contact with this slum area. As an effort to reduce slum in the settlements, it is necessary to know the causes of the appearance of slums from various potentially influential aspects. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the factors that cause slum in the slum area of Baru Ulu Village by using the content analysis method to analyze the causes of slum in the research location. Through research, it was found that there are 13 factors that affect slum in Baru Ulu based on stakeholder opinion.

Abstract:
The development of slums in urban areas is inseparable of the increases in population and population activity. In addition, undirected and unplanned development also supports the degradation of the quality of residential environment. One area that is included in the slum area is located in Tanah Datar Sub-District. The residential area of Tanah Datar Sub-District is right in the heart of Pekanbaru city. Thus, living conditions and the welfare of the people who live in these settlements greatly affect the face of a city. The characteristics and conditions of slums in each region is different. Thus, this study aims to identify the condition of a residential area in order to determine alternatives to handling slum areas appropriately. The method used is exploratory descriptive of phenomena and facts relating to the condition of the community and the environment of slum areas based on real facts, expert opinion and the criteria of the Minister of PUPR Regulation Number 14/PRT/M/2018. The results showed that in achieving the goal of handling slum areas, the priority of government policy and budget allocation alignments be the most important factor. Then, strengthen government collaboration with relevant stakeholders and handling based on the priority scale required by the residential area.

Abstract Since the approval of the Brazilian Federal Technical Assistance Law, whose objective is to guarantee adequate technical assistance to the residents of poor areas to improve their homes, several municipalities have implemented programs, not always successful, to improve housing in slums. Aiming to subsidize these programs implementation workflow, the present paper analyses use of drones as a tool to gather information about the physical characteristics slum households in Salvador de Bahia city, Brazil. As an experiment we flight over a single census sector within the Alto das Pombas slum, and after image processing we extracted and organized the collected data, extracting the possible information that could be applied to identify and quantify the most precarious houses that could be prioritized from a health improvement perspective. We conclude that many of the necessary data needed, on the urbanistic scale in Brazilian slums, can benefit from drone photogrammetry at low cost and fast execution.

Abstract:
Background: Immunization coverage is better in urban than rural areas. However, we anticipate and argue that within the urban areas disparities and inequities persist in immunization coverage and that the socioeconomically disadvantaged, particularly those who reside in slum areas are more vulnerable and may contribute to the lower uptake of immunization. The objectives of the study were to assess the under-five immunization coverage amongst the households in slums of Mangalore taluk and to identify determinants of full immunization uptake among under 5 in the slums population and to know the reasons for non-immunization or partial immunization of children.Methods: Community Based Cross sectional study was conducted in the notified slum areas of Mangalore during August-November 2015. Information was collected from the parents regarding vaccination of their children and sociodemographic variables using a semi-structured interview schedule.Results: 88 (57.7%) of under 5 children were fully immunized, 62 (41.3%) were partially immunized in the slum areas of Mangalore, Karnataka, India. Mean age of the children in our study was found to be 35.15 months. Immunization coverage was found to be associated with the presence of immunization card, occupation of mother, knowledge about universal immunization programme (UIP), knowledge about protection offered by vaccines.Conclusions: Unfortunately, the immunization coverage was found to be very bad in the slum areas of Mangalore city, Karnataka, India. There is an urgent need to ensure that regular health education sessions are conducted. Secondly, slum areas should be the target of RCH programme with special focus on immunization related activities e.g. ensuring that all households with children should have immunization cards, as the slum areas remain the neglected section of the society due to various reasons.

Abstract:
Community settlements in a city have a very important role in providing services in the field of life. Increasing the population in a strategic land in urban areas will cause urban problems, especially population density, building irregularities and slums. This increase in population is due to economic, legal, social and cultural aspects, all centered in the city so that many rural communities flock to the city to improve their economy. Seberang Palinggam Sub-District, South Padang District, Padang City is one of a strategic location because it is close to the port, trade and service area. This strategic location caused many people who settled there. As a result, Seberang Palinggam Village is included in 23 slum areas in Padang City, based on Padang Mayor Decree No. 163 of 2014. This study aims to determine the right direction in the structuring of the slum environment with the Eco-Settlement approach that develops from the concept of sustainable development. The target being developed is to identify the characteristics of slums in villages across Palinggam using the Qualitative Descriptive Method, Analysis of the factors that led to the development of slums using Delphi. From this analysis, it is obtained an outline based on influential factors in the form of adding and improving the quality of sanitation infrastructure, clean water, drainage and healthy houses, increasing the carrying capacity of the environment and community resources, empowering the community's economy, and improving the quality of institutions and awareness of existing policies related to slum environment management.

Abstract:
Slum populations, the most vulnerable to COVID-19, are emerging as hotspots for transmission of the virus. Comprehensive strategies for addressing this challenge exist, but reports of effective models for implementing them have been lacking. Asha, a 33-year old health and community development organization in Delhi, India, has responded to the pandemic by activating well-developed networks in the community to enact a range of interventions, with encouraging results. The success of Asha in controlling COVID-19 in the slums reflects the realization of the values Asha promotes in the community: dignity, empowerment, justice, non-violence, compassion, gratitude, generosity, optimism, joy, and simplicity. Although developed by a team of Christians and those of other faiths on Asha’s staff, these values enjoy broad-based support within a pluralistic, Hindu-influenced society.

Abstract:
In the early part of the twentieth century, Auckland's Grey Street, as Greys Avenue was known until 1927, was home to a Chinese community, and was associated with opium smoking and prostitution, and regarded by some as a "slum." In 1941, with financial support from Auckland City, the Labour government embarked upon a scheme of "slum clearance" in the area. Initially, the government hoped to acquire and clear both sides of Greys Avenue. Housing Division architects prepared a vast scheme for the site, comprising 468 state rental flats. The first portion of this scheme, the Lower Greys Avenue Flats, was built from 1945 to 1947. This paper explores the slum rhetoric that preceded the realisation of the Lower Greys Avenue Flats; the standard of the houses that were deemed to be slums; and the occupations and ethnicities of the occupants who were considered to be slum dwellers. The paper shows that slum language exaggerated the "shabby" and "shambling" standards of the houses. It also shows that much of the land now occupied by the Lower Greys Avenue Flats was in fact cleared prior to 1935, and thus not specifically for this state housing block at all, and that in the latter 1930s and early 1940s, the focus of slum concern was further up the street, with houses that would not be cleared and replaced until the 1950s, '60s and '70s.

Abstract:
Vaccination against COVID-19 remains one of the ultimate solutions to the ongoing pandemic. This study examined and compared the completion of primary COVID-19 vaccination series and associated factors in the slum and estate communities of Uganda. This was a cross-sectional survey conducted among 1025 slum and estate residents. Logistic regression models were fitted. Of the 1025 participants, 511 were slum residents and 514 were estate residents. Completion of COVID-19 vaccination was 43.8% in the slum community and 39.9% in the estate community (p = 0.03). Having more knowledge about COVID-19 was positively associated with completing COVID-19 vaccination in both communities. Perceived benefits and cues to action also had a positive association, but only among the slum residents. However, perceiving people infected with COVID-19 as having a high death rate, perceived barriers such as serious side effects and long distances, and depressive symptoms had negative associations with vaccine uptake among the slum community, but not in the estate community. Addressing barriers to vaccination, strengthening and utilizing the various cues to action, engagement of religious and cultural leaders, and continued community education and sensitization tailored to the needs of each community are potentially vital strategies in raising vaccination rates. Consideration of socioeconomic impact-alleviation strategies, especially among the urban poor, would also be beneficial.

Abstract:
The role of local governments in the sustainable development agenda has not yet fully achieved the 11th SDGS goal, which is to make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable. This study aims to formulate an out of the box strategy in responding to the 11 SDGS goals so that it can be achieved by Regional Governments in Indonesia using qualitative descriptive analysis methods based on primary and secondary data. The results of the study indicate that local government programs that must be encouraged in order to succeed in this goal are to facilitate sustainable natural resource management in slum and coastal settlements by protecting and improving ecosystems, encouraging disaster risk reduction/management, overcoming slums, thoroughly, community, institutional, collaboration, based on strategy formulation. Recommendations based on research results are: encourage programs that are characterized by "Tatap Pelangiku", which is a strong and safe community in residential areas through reforestation, sustainability, and collaboration efforts according to the NUA-SDGS agenda that is adaptive and not slum.
