Introduction to the study area (10 POINTS): location map, country, city and slum name, population.
Socioeconomic characteristics (20 POINTS): History of the slum, how long has it been there? How did it come to exist (rural migration, displaced population? etc.)? Who lives in this slum? What types of jobs do they do?
Disaster history of the city and slum (20 POINTS): hazards in the slum area, vulnerability analysis and a vulnerability table (physical, environmental, social and economic). Describe each vulnerability as it applies to the slum and also summarize it in a table, see example below. Provide both.
Description of urban intervention (eviction, relocation/resettlement or upgrade) (30 POINTS): (This should be the biggest section of the paper) When did the intervention start? Describe the goals of the intervention. What are the actions taken by the leading agency: government or NGO? How did the community react?
Discussion of the results (10 POINTS): Use readings from class, the week covering your specific intervention type (eviction, relocation or upgrade). What are the results of the intervention? Was it successful? How to do this type of intervention better for all involved?
