非正式住区的升级改造已成为南非公共部门精心策划和资助的最全面、最复杂、最具争议性、资本密集、往往也是最情绪化的发展干预措施之一。然而，许多计划是在各种角色参与者之间没有有意义的合作的情况下发生的。在本出版物中，讨论了一些“前沿”倡议和对已证明的实践和辩论的重新审视，并通过案例研究、经验、证据和适当的例子慷慨地提供了支持。不同作者的合作努力进一步加强了这一点，他们设法简化和抓住主题事项的本质，使其能够适用于制定政策。
The upgrading of informal settlements has become one of the most comprehensive, complex, controversial, capital-intensive, and often emotive developmental interventions orchestrated and funded by the South African public sector. Many initiatives, however, happen without there being meaningful collaboration between the various role players. In this publication, some of the ‘cutting-edge’ initiatives and a revisit to proven practices and debates are discussed and generously supported by case studies, experience, evidence, and appropriate examples. This is further enhanced by the collaborative effort of the diversity of authors who have managed to simplify and capture the essence of the subject matter in such a way that it can be applied in the formulation of policy.
