Klappentext
The book narrates how opportunities and challenges of rapid urbanization in Dhaka are translated into realizing dreams of better lives and livelihoods, and prospects for a shared future for city dwellers - poor-non-poor, men-women, young-old, migrant-non-migrant. By defining the way in which cities should be planned and managed to best promote sustainable and equitable urbanization and integrating it with the national development agenda, this book has provided a roadmap that would create equal prospects for everyone to benefit from its prosperity.
