Census 2011
In India,
31.2% live in urban centres compared with
27.8% in 2001 and
25.5% in 1991.
For the 1st time, absolute increase in 10 years
in urban areas ( at 91 million) was
> in rural areas (at 90.4 million)
Every city is marked by
informal settlements
where the poor are forced to live
without access to basic services
like water and sanitation.
In some cities like Mumbai, half of the
population (49 percent according to
Census 2001) lives in slums.
In Bangalore, the number of slum
dwellers in a decade has risen from 23%
in 2001 to nearly 30-40% of the city's
current population.
1/3rd of slums in the city are located in
environmentally sensitive and filthy
areas.
Almost 90% of all slum houses are
kutcha and semi pucca shabby dwellings
Further, the Corporation
limits have recently been
expanded to incorporate
fringe areas of the city. 85
such zones with area
characteristics of a village
have already been
considered as slums.
( to answer Bablu’s question.. )
For all these people, any untoward
natural event is likely to become a
disaster.
Thus, Vulnerability is not so much
created by Climate Change, but by
poor access to land, overcrowding
and low-quality housing etc.
These need to be fixed.. For any talk of
adaptation to be meaningful..
Indicators of Vulnerability

KS Garden:
Old slum in the core of
the city
vulnerability to climate
changes marked by the
cramped houses, large
number of homes and
their proximity to the
open drains
EWS Quarters:

residents to climatic extremes s.
Parappana Agrahara:

urban mindset,

Perception of Climate Change:
No concept of Climate Change..
But understand that weather is
changing..
Adaptation:
People “adjust” at the dwelling level..
At a larger level,
it is is difficult to organize. Thus
politics take over
Govt. Policy of putting people in 325
sq ft concrete blocks by PPP –
handing over slum lands to
developers and giving them more
FSI/FAR.
Many of these blocks for example
even the ones created by a prominent
NGO in Mumbai, need people to
switch on their light at mid-day.
PPP is not working
For communities to act together,
•Security of land tenure
•Secure relocation, if required
•Pre-planning of amenities structures
Clear Policy is required.
Sanitation:
Government/contractor run Community
toilet
v/s
Community owned and run toilets.
Options:
• Dry toilets, ECOSAN
• DEWATS..
For Small Group owned or
Individual owned system, there is
no space for structure, piping,
gravity flow.. Therefore land needs
to be set aside. Therefore
a pro-slum Development Plan.
Water:
Borewell or Piped water or both?
Main issue is
maintenance & cleanliness
Destruction of common water
places like open wells, lakes, ponds.
Sometimes privatized by tanker
owners.
:
In fact policy should be prowater spaces
• improve drains as places of
recreation:
• Design for animal use, and
washing/bathing
•Link design to parks , urban
agriculture
Solid Waste Policies
Waste to Electricity model ? dubious.
Centralised Waste dumps/treatment- dubious.
Alternatives:
New ARTI model for micro- biogas.
Source separation
Decentralised waste treatment:
Community Groups; ALMs
Health:
Equip people to better take care of
themselves
They will do Self care so we may as
well educate on proper use &.
