Evaluating human settlements

Description

Evaluating human settlements involves systematically assessing their social, economic, environmental, and infrastructural conditions to identify deficiencies and opportunities for improvement. This strategy aims to inform planning and policy decisions by providing evidence-based insights, enabling targeted interventions such as upgrading housing, improving public services, and enhancing sustainability. By addressing issues like overcrowding, inadequate sanitation, and resource inefficiency, evaluation ensures that settlements evolve to better meet the needs of their inhabitants and support resilient, equitable communities.
