dc.description.abstractSlums are a physical and spatial manifestation of urban poverty and intra-city inequality. However, slums do not accommodate all the urban poor, nor are all slum dwellers always poor. Approaches to improvement typically follow insitu upgrading or forced eviction and redevelopment. Both approaches focus on short-term solutions which fail to address the core spatial problems of these areas. Space Syntax occupies a middle ground by concentrating vital spatial intervention in the key areas which deliver long term benefits. Space Syntax provides a unique, evidence-based, and industry-leading approach to the planning and design of buildings and urban areas. Combining technology, ability, and extensive global experience.
