Today, one in six people live in slums, squats or shantytowns due to mass migration to cities. This is often portrayed as a negative. But Slums: Cities of Tomorrow challenges conventional thinking and focuses on the benefits of communal living, both economically and socially, suggesting that slums are in fact the solution, not the problem.
