Improving health conditions in slums


  • Improving hygiene conditions in shanty towns

Implementation

This strategy features in the framework of Agenda 21 as formulated at UNCED (Rio de Janeiro, 1992), now coordinated by the United Nations Commission on Sustainable Development and implemented through national and local authorities.

Agenda 21 recommends the development of programmes for improving health conditions in human settlements, in particular within slums and non-tenured settlements, on the basis of health risk assessment.
