Urban Migration, Poverty Reduction and Climate Change in Asia
The present book brings together bold visions, in-depth analyses and innovative approaches to urban migration and its impact on poverty reduction and climate change in Asia. From the presentation of this book, it can be concluded that the combined effect of the three outstanding forces of recent times- migration, poverty and climate change- usually accompanies social and economic development, but rapid urban growth on todays scale strains the capacity of local and national governments to provide even the most basic of services. There are different dimensions of migrant exclusiveness based on class, gender composition, their land and property rights, their place of origin and so on. Allowing people to freely move to the cities can help a nations economic development experience, with better lives for all, including women.
