The topics discussed cover urban, rural, and estate housing issues identified by research on low-income populations in each area, as well as related housing policy.
This resource guide is a general description that provides insights into research done on marginalised communities and their service provision in different contexts within Sri Lanka and globally. It includes articles on the five major infrastructure grids: water, sanitation, energy, transport, and communication, together with housing concerning poor inhabitants in a city. The guide is a mix of articles that explain the subject through various perspectives and circumstances of residents, communities, and other related stakeholders. It captures the range of situations from complete exclusion from all services to full inclusion in all major grids.
