Description

This study examines the impact of residence and livelihood on urban space in Dharavi, home to a million people and 15,000 active factories. We found that individuals from across the nation both coexist and segregate to ensure safety, security, and the preservation of their livelihoods connected to their roots. They gather with people who share their place of origin and language while avoiding crowding. Our research also highlights how changes in people's livelihoods over time have resulted in shifts in community dynamics, governance, and urban spatial organization, ultimately changing the balance between coexistence and habitat segregation.
