1. Consequences of Rural to Urban Migration – Urban Poverty. By the end of today’s lesson I will be able to: Describe general characteristics of a shanty town. Explain the problems (and a possible solution) of urban poverty in a case study of São Paulo. Shanty towns, squatter settlements, slum areas – a collection of shacks and poor quality housing which often lack electricity, water supply or sewage disposal. People live in shanty towns because they have no choice. Favela – The name given to shanty towns in Brazil. Local authority – local government, they try to ‘manage’ the city. Self-help Schemes – Where local authorities or charities support shanty town dwellers to produce higher quality homes by providing land, small loans, cheap building materials and basic services.
