The Global Development Institute Lecture Series is pleased to present Prof Diana Mitlin, The University of Manchester to discuss addressing shelter inequalities: lessons from urban India

Housing in the Global South faces a number of challenges, including poor construction quality, citizen exclusion, and (in)appropriate standards, leading to significant inequalities. What lessons emerge for tackling urban shelter inequalities from experiences in the Global South? Prof Mitlin will share findings from research in India where civil society organisations have been working with municipal and state governments to address housing needs through innovation.

The Global Development Lecture Series brings experts involved in global development to The University of Manchester. It aims to facilitate dialogue and discussion, providing a space for leading development thinkers to share their latest research and ideas.

Lectures are followed by an audience Q&A

All lectures are live streamed on the Global Development Institute Facebook page: www.facebook.com/globaldevinst

This event is open to members of the public.

Price: Free
