Final Year Project

Project Title

Housing Inequity in Karachi

Description

This project investigates why there has been no effort to develop low-income housing schemes in Karachi while mega-projects (such as Emaar) continue to be built, attract foreign investments, and cement the communal gap between Karachiites. Exploring this aims to pick apart whether it is a civic responsibility to demand housing for more than half of Karachi's population that resides in informal settlements.
