Slums are typically characterised by insecure land tenure, limited<br \/>\naccess to safe water, sanitation and housing.<\/p>\n<p>This research comes at a time when the proportion of global population residing<br \/>\nin urban areas has experienced significant growth, with further substantial<br \/>\nexpansion projected in developing regions. The increasing urbanisation trend<br \/>\nposes considerable stress on the environment and finite resources.<br \/>\nThe study presents a model that outlines the activities of slum residents and how<br \/>\nthese practices intersect with the core tenets of the circular economy. The<br \/>\neveryday practices in slums inherently reflect the principles of circular<br \/>\neconomy, highlighting intricate connections between slum life and circular<br \/>\neconomy principles.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, the research underscores that slum dwellers possess a deep<br \/>\nunderstanding of circular economy practices and show a strong commitment to<br \/>\npromoting circular waste design interventions. This knowledge is invaluable for<br \/>\nfostering collaborative relationships between urban planning authorities and<br \/>\nslum communities to drive circular city initiatives in developing countries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Informal settlements, often referred to as slums, in the Global South offer valuable insights for the development of circular cities in other developing countries.
