Abstract
Pugalis, Giddings and Anyigor analyse the progress that Nigeria is making in alleviating slum conditions. Based on the findings of the study, the chapter recommends slum alleviation strategies that would not only focus on physical and environmental interventions but also provide social and economic support. The paper develops multidimensional framework for improving the living conditions of slum dwellers that could be used to improve slum conditions in future programmes.
