Y10: Self Help in squatter settlements

This is the very useful picture from the text book. It shows the advantages of providing self help to people living in squatter settlements. The case study you looked at for squatter settlements was a favela in Brazil (most of you chose Rocinha)

y10 Improving Favelas – The Knock on effects

This is an excellent short video on how reducing gang and gun crime in favela has had knock on effects for the whole squatter settlement. Also the problem they solved was mostly a social one (crime) but this has had economic benefits as well
