  1. Security of Tenure and Durability of Housing MICS3 Data Analysis and Report Writing Workshop

  2. International Goals & Targets MDG 7: Ensure environmental sustainability Target 11: Achieve significant improvement in the lives of at least 100 million slum-dwellers by 2020 Indicator: Proportion of urban household members living in slum housing

  6. Methodological issues Methodology developed after the target was established Difficult to define slums: elements of exclusion, lack of basic property rights, deprivation of basic shelter services, associated with criminal or immoral behaviour. The only target that uses an absolute number rather than a share or rate

  7. Methodological issues Measurement issues still under discussion Lack of data on various components of the definition of slum remain a major concern Availability of data versus the concept: Estimates of slum come from household based data sources, whereas the concept refers to spatially-contiguous locations – area based definitions

  8. Methodological issues In MICS3, households are identified as slum, using a number of characteristics determined in consultation with UNHabitat The ultimate goal is to identify slum households and compare the living conditions of slum residents with non-slum residents An optional module on “Security of Tenure and Durability of Housing” added Module should be used for urban areas/capital city/metropolitan city where slum housing is prevalent Sampling implications

  9. Slum Algorithm A household is considered a slum if Lack of improved drinking water sources (Table EN.1) or Lack of improved sanitation facilities (Table EN.5) or Lack of sufficient living area (overcrowding) or Lack of durable housing or Lack of security of tenure

  10. Security of tenure Lack of security of tenure is defined as Lack of formal documentation for the residence or Perceived risk of eviction

  11. Durability of housing A structure is defined as non-durable if Floor material is “natural” AND there are two or more bad conditions identified or Conditions of vulnerability to accidents – dwelling surroundings or Dwelling located in or near hazardous areas
