 1. Objective

The Objective of this material is

• to create awareness and mobilize city and zonal
administrative on revitalization of down towns.
• Asses the extent of urban deteriorated area /urban
slum in each urban centers
• select a specific area to plan, mobilize resource and
implement revitalization program in deteriorated
urban centers.
 2. Background
•Currently, more than 50% of the world’s population lives in urban
areas.
•Over 60% of the land projected to become urban by 2030 is yet to be
built.
• By 2050, about 70% of the world’s population is expected to live in
urban areas.
•The world’s cities occupy just 3 per cent of the Earth’s land,
•but account for 60-80 per cent of energy consumption and 75 % of
carbon emissions.
•Urban-based economic activities account for
 Background
• Slum formation occurs largely as a by-product of rapid urbanization
• the proportion of the urban population living in slums in the developing world has
declined from 46 % in the year 1990 to an estimated 32 % in 2010.
• The world’s slum population is projected to reach 889 million by 2020.
• between the year 2000 and 2010, a total 227 million people in the developing world
were moved out of slum conditions.
• Population growth and lack of governance, cycles of poverty, and natural
disasters further magnify the problem.
•A slum area is :
• a highly populated,
• informal settlement with substandard housing.
• It has little to no services and dirty living conditions.
• Substandard housing unable offering protection against extreme climate conditions
• In Sufficient living space (i.e. more than three people sharing a room)
• Lack access to safe water in suitable amounts and at an affordable price
• inadequate sanitation
• insecure occupancy safeguarding against forced evictions

 Background

Addis Ababa more than 80 % is considered as slum area

 Background

•Currently, the number of people living in slums is 1

in 7 of the global population.
•the number is set to increase to 1 in every 4 people
by 2030. That is a quarter of the people on earth
living in unsafe, unhealthy, overcrowded homes with
limited to no access to basic services.

3. Revitalization and getting rid of slum

 Process by which a part of the city in social, physical or economic crisis

undergoes a transformation in order to reverse the declining trend
 Urban revitalization involves redeveloping blighted urban areas for new uses.
 Downtown revitalization is the physical and economic renewal of a central
business district.
 Urban Revitalization is designed to bring back underutilized assets and to
redistribute opportunities, increasing urban prosperity and quality of life.
 Focuses on improving areas that are in a state of decline:
 getting rid of slum…
• Urban revitalization is closely related to processes of urban
renewal, or redevelopment in areas of moderate- to high-
density urban land use.
• In practical terms, key goals of urban revitalization include the
successful clearance of slums and physical redevelopment
that takes into account heritage preservation.
• It has been repeatedly demonstrated that slum clearance has
far-reaching negative impacts.
• Community-led projects focused on slum upgrading have
proven to be more successful than just getting rid of slums.
4. Criteria to decide the intervention type
 Owner ship of the housing unit in the site(weather it is government or private
 Housing unit condition of the site(deteriorated, dilapidated and slum)
 Accessibility and condition of basic infrastructure in the site (street network,
water supply and social services).
 Future development potential of the site.
 Financial resource to develop the site.
 Land value of the site
 Community interest towards the project
 Densification level we want to achieve.
 Based on the above criteria:
 Intervention type
 Renewal is applied when(if):
 Majorities (more than 70%) of the housing units are
deteriorated and they lack housing related facilities.
 Majority (more than 50%) of the housing units are owned by
government.
 The site lack basic infrastructure (street network, utilities
and social services).
 Up-grading applied when(if):
 The site has some basic infrastructure but they need
improvement and provision of additional infrastructure that
are listed as shortage
 Majority (more than 70%) of the housing units and built up
structures need reservation (because of being at good
condition)
