Shanty towns, also known as slums or squatter settlements, are informal settlements made up of improvised housing like scrap wood, metal, and plastic sheets. They are typically located on the outskirts of cities in poor countries or on derelict urban land. Over one billion people worldwide live in shanty towns, with the largest being in Karachi, Pakistan, Nairobi, Kenya, and Mumbai, India. Living conditions are often unsanitary and cramped, with multiple families sharing small shacks that may lack windows, beds, or electricity. Shanty towns hinder development by occupying valuable state land without infrastructure, and relying on marginal jobs like child labor that infringe on rights. Governments aim to incorporate

This is my mega-updated version that we now use with Year 10 pupils studying AQA syllabus B. It links in with p48-51 of the AQA b textbook. It is a great way of getting pupils to show progress and develop their high order thinking skills! It also uses the vision frame exercise from "Representing Geography" to enable students to understand Dharavi.
i would appreciate any feedback that you or your students can give me on this.
Thanks

Modern Forms of Slavery
We believe everyone, everywhere has the right to a life free from slavery. But right now, millions of children and adults are trapped in slavery in every single country in the world. Including yours.
Modern slavery is the severe exploitation of other people for personal or commercial gain. Modern slavery is all around us, but often just out of sight. People can become entrapped making our clothes, serving our food, picking our crops, working in factories, or working in houses as cooks, cleaners or nannies.
From the outside, it can look like a normal job. But people are being controlled – they can face violence or threats, be forced into inescapable debt, or have had their passport taken away and are being threatened with deportation. Many have fallen into this oppressive trap simply because they were trying to escape poverty or insecurity, improve their lives and support their families. Now, they can’t leave
2)Forms of modern slavery
Modern slavery takes many forms. The most common are:
Human trafficking. The use of violence, threats or coercion to transport, recruit or harbour people in order to exploit them for purposes such as forced prostitution, labour, criminality, marriage or organ removal.
Forced labour. Any work or services people are forced to do against their will under threat of punishment.
Debt bondage/bonded labour. The world’s most widespread form of slavery. People trapped in poverty borrow money and are forced to work to pay off the debt, losing control over both their employment conditions and the debt.
Descent–based slavery. Most traditional form, where people are treated as property, and their “slave” status was passed down the maternal line.
Slavery of children. When a child is exploited for someone else’s gain. This can include child trafficking, child soldiers, child marriage and child domestic slavery.
Forced and early marriage. When someone is married against their will and cannot leave. Most child marriages can be considered slavery.
People end up trapped in modern slavery because they are vulnerable to being tricked, trapped and exploited, often as a result of poverty and exclusion. It is these external circumstances that push people into taking risky decisions in search of opportunities to provide for their families, or are simply pushed into jobs in exploitative conditions.

Homelessness-Shelter Associated problems of Footpath Dwellers
Homelessness is fast emerging as a urban centric curse having presence in all developed and developing nations/cities. Urbanization, poverty, social conflicts, social taboos and migration remain the propeller of such urban problem. Despite all efforts made, homelessness is fast emerging as the greatest challenge in the urban setting, in the domain of providing affordable shelter. Indian metropolises, housing larger proportion of such population, having enormous wealth, best of infrastructure and services are unable to provide basic shelter to them. Cities need to evolve and devolve to create options for appropriate shelter for such population and enabling / empowering them to become integral part of the society. Homelessness is not merely a physical problem and a curse ,but has larger economic, health, social and environmental connotations. Victims of homelessness need to be understood and appreciated in terms of the problems they face, causes which lead to making them to live on footpaths and the challenges of survival they encounter while being on the roads in day to day living. In the absence of any privacy and non-availability of basic amenities essential for human living, pavement dwellers are forced to do activities which are beyond the human dignity. Drugs, sexual abuse and crime remain the greatest challenge and threat posed by pavement living. They are treated more as criminals rather than part of the civic society. They are chased and hounded by both civic authorities and the law enforcing agencies, which make them run from place to place. In the absence of any identity, they become invisible, making them remain outside all the government run program/policies evolved and put in pace for the benefit of the poor. They have no access to assured living, food and employment. Being treated as Inhumans they need, care and support for making them lead a normal human life and become productive part of human society. Urban local bodies need to work with community based and voluntary organizations to map such invisible population, work with them to make them integral part of social network. Cities, society and human centric organizations need to innovate to find appropriate solutions to overcome this fast spreading problems

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
