About
Resource summary
This work addresses the role of informality in urban resilience and equity. It is aimed urban development practitioners, resilience planners, and policy-makers. Compiled by a working group of the Southern Africa Resilience Academy (SARA), the objective was to reframe the complex roles informality plays in urban resilience. In challenging preconceived notions of informality, we hope to identify more equitable, resilient, and sustainable pathways for urban development with particular attention to challenges in the Global South.
