Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "National Experiences with Shelter Delivery for the Poorest Groups (1994) deals with the problems encountered by the poor in their struggle to find shelter. Based on examples from India, Indonesia and Mexico (and to some extent Nigeria) this report by the United Nations Centre for Human Settlements focuses on how current shelter policies are leaving the urban poor out of the shelter delivery process, and provides descriptions of successful projects of shelter improvement. The report found that the implementation of the shelter policies in the case studies has not been a total success. Legal restrictions and building regulations have, for instance, not been reformed to any substantial degree, and the availability of affordable and relevant building materials for the poor has not been significantly improved. This report will be of interest to those planners and policy makers hoping to learn from case study initiatives in housing the urban poor."--UN-HABITAT.

Download or read book Child Labor and the Urban Third World written by Subrata Sankar Bagchi and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 2010-11-22 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Third World cities have been reinvented by the forces of globalization as the destinations of new investments, causing the migration of a teeming million to the major urban centers without any corresponding increase in the creation of new jobs and other basic amenities required for decent living. The problem of child labor has also been exacerbated to an unprecedented level in the urban areas of the Third World countries during this period. Yet the dominant discourses on this problem have come from the Western observers or have some prior Western presence in its understanding of the problem, which defers the Third Worldly understanding of the situation. The author argues that a paradigm shift is needed to incorporate various local discourses in order to effectively address the problem of child labor. Based on a decade of fieldwork among the poor and marginalized population in the city of Kolkata, Child Labor and the Urban Third World will give readers an idea of how this problem has become inextricably bound with various other local conditions, such as the security of tenure in the houses.
