There is a lack of access to basic facilities such as clean water and electricity, and also health and education.
Egypt is home to 1,100 slum areas, 350 of which are in and around Cairo, many of which are labelled as “unsafe zones”.

In Pakistan, slums exist in large cities like Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad. More than 50 per cent of the population of major cities lives in slums and squatter settlements (Katchi Abadis). ]]> 2021-03-26 13:49:42 UTC https://padlet.com/nagatseifeldein16/3ibqz1rfuvivw098/wish/1357210902 nagatseifeldein16 https://padlet.com/nagatseifeldein16/3ibqz1rfuvivw098/wish/1357222034 According to Hani Younis-the spokesperson for the Ministry of Housing, an estimated 40 percent of Cairo’s population live in informal settlements or slum areas, and 75 percent of urban areas across Egypt are unplanned. ]]> 2021-03-26 13:52:03 UTC https://padlet.com/nagatseifeldein16/3ibqz1rfuvivw098/wish/1357222034 nagatseifeldein16 https://padlet.com/nagatseifeldein16/3ibqz1rfuvivw098/wish/1357225104 With the aim of having a slum-free Egypt by 2030, the government launched a project to urbanize slum areas that are fit for living and evacuate those that are not.

Even the cities in which we are living are not only a home to rich people, but also consist of poor people living in the slums, as the poverty rate in Pakistan is 24.3%. nagatseifeldein16 https://padlet.com/nagatseifeldein16/3ibqz1rfuvivw098/wish/1357262479 2021-03-26 14:01:05 UTC https://padlet.com/nagatseifeldein16/3ibqz1rfuvivw098/wish/1357262479 nagatseifeldein16 https://padlet.com/nagatseifeldein16/3ibqz1rfuvivw098/wish/1357267116 One of the largest and most famous slums is the Orangi Town, which is located in Karachi. It is a home to over 2.4 million people. It faces issues like lack of clean water and sanitation, lack of cleanliness leading to diseases like cholera and dengue fever, not to mention gang violence as well.

The rural belt of Islamabad has been areas around Tarnol, Sihala, Rawal Dam, Bani Gala, Barakahu, Bari Imam, Golra, Shah Allah Ditta, Nilore Road, and Jhangi Sayedan, and it is estimated that 60% of the city’s population is actually a part of the slum areas.

These slum areas do not have access to any basic human rights and necessities, such as sewerage systems, basic and clean water supply, education, healthcare and much more.

Why did we select the problem of lack of clean water and sanitation, especially in slums? nagatseifeldein16 https://padlet.com/nagatseifeldein16/3ibqz1rfuvivw098/wish/1357553085 The individuals living in these slums are the most affected by the problem of clean water and sanitation because of poverty
Slums around the world, like those in Egypt and Pakistan, have been a centre for disease and destruction. Slums exist in the cities our members are from and we observe them on a daily basis, not taking many steps to help out. Such slums do not have access to basic sanitation and clean water. This lack of clean water and sanitation leads to the spread of several diseases, allowing loss of life, cattle and also affects economic aspects.  

There is also a concept of alienation, where individuals are categorised without us even realising. Phrases such as "these people," or "the people living in these areas," creates a further divide. ]]> 2021-03-26 15:01:31 UTC https://padlet.com/nagatseifeldein16/3ibqz1rfuvivw098/wish/1357553085 The problem tackles SDG6: "Clean Water & Sanitation For All" nagatseifeldein16 https://padlet.com/nagatseifeldein16/3ibqz1rfuvivw098/wish/1357637264
