Slum growth 'shames the world'

The number of people living out their days in the squalor of a slum is
almost one billion, the United Nations says - one-sixth of the world's
population.
Without radical changes, it believes, that number could double in 30
years.

Forced to slum it

Globalisation bears a heavy part of the blame for the more than 900
million people who are driven to live in urban squalor

The Guardian
This week the UN took to the streets of Rio, New York, Cairo and
Nairobi to announce the arrival of the "new urban revolution". The
explosive growth of world cities in the past few decades, it said, has
left more than 900 million people in slums, with the probability that
twice as many more will live in insanitary, overcrowded, unofficial
settlements within 30 years.
