| The Mumbai Makeover |
 |
April 2008
Located in the heart of Mumbai, the Dharavi
slum is like a city within the city. Now
ambitious plans for redevelopment mean its
days are numbered.
Home to one million residents, Dharavi is a
hive of activity providing Mumbai with an
essential recycling service. However, the
slum will soon give way to brand-new
apartments. Developers claim everyone will be
re-housed into better accommodation, but
unfair rules mean most families won't be able
to benefit from the change. Driven out of
their homes, they will lose everything. As
one mother puts it: "We will stay here until
they demolish, then we're in the hands of
God."
