Living Environment Innovation Project

Slum formation is occurring at unprecedented rates. A report by the United Nations shows that there are more than 1 slum dwellers worldwide, which is about 32 percent of the global urban population (Unatied Nations 2016).

 

With the persistence of large slum and Re-design or Innovation programs, is a realization that lots of slum could not be removed simply. So, the idea of slum become more .

 

In last two years, Living Environment by Chiba University and Universidad Veracruzana researched the of housing formation and process, house type, house tenure, social network, environment and residential El Roble, Mexico.

 

LEI project question in this year So, maybe one approach is lean into the answer this question: The creation of small-scale and inexpensive infrastructures that turn slum areas into self-sustained communities. Based on this idea, I think that the purpose of LEI project at this time has developed the basic framework for empowerment.

 

The activities and research in this activity are below;

• Making a public facility for local people

• An accurate area map

• Housing forming process and Self-governming

• Privacy and home territory
