Physical planning and poverty alleviation
This is my project topic in school and I need responses on how physical planning can be used to reduce the effect of poverty in our cities. Thanks.

Shipra Narang Suri (Moderator) from India, 12 May 2012Please take a look at the various ongoing discussions under the theme of Urban Planning. You will get several ideas.
Olagoke Samson, 13 May 2012I'd do that. Thanks.
James Duminy (Moderator) from South Africa, 13 May 2012Some key areas of intervention and policy development have been emerging within this dialogue, including transportation, land management (i.e. tenure arrangements) and rights based approaches to planning and development. Planning is a key activity that needs to address all of these concerns simultaneously, and equity is an important moral principle that should guide all efforts made to manage public affairs and create cities. So stick around here if you would like to discuss more about the moral foundations of planning!
