Ash Amin Presentation

I liked Ash Amin presentation today @cities Manchester but the facilitator couldnt see my hand....the main issue I had and still have is that we are focusing on 'fire fighting' than 'fire prevention'...much as recognising  rights and slum upgrading are  good for the current slums but we are missing the underlaying issue as to how our cities would plan inadvance for new settlers of all economic backgrounds. Most cities are determined to work comprehensively for the very few elite...negleting huge volumes of city migrants.
It is sad that we have good reports and projections on slum growth but we are doing nothing to prevent the challenge.
