In this issue of KMT Dialogues, we delve into the intricate and often overlooked relationships between informal settlements and the larger social and ecological systems in which they exist. Understanding the multifaceted nature of urban informality requires attention to both its political and economic dimensions. It is not just a form of poverty, but also a way of producing and regulating power relations that can either benefit or marginalize different groups within society.

Through a series of insightful discussions, we examine the complex interplay between informal settlements and the environment, including their impact on natural resources and the challenges they pose for sustainable development. We also explore the broader political and economic forces that shape informal settlements, and the ways in which they are affected by these forces. Join us as we explore the multifaceted nature of informal settlements and their implications for sustainable development.

It is clear that policies and interventions aimed at addressing urban informality should take into account its complex and dynamic nature. Only then can we design effective solutions that address the root causes of urban informality and ensure sustainable development for all members of society.
