MHT hosted a side event titled ‘Women as Leaders in Meeting Slum Upgrading Goals: Learnings from India’ at the World Urban Forum 9 at Kuala Lampur in February 2018. The event presented a case study of the successful public-private partnership slum redevelopment initiative in an Ahmedabad, from the perspective of various stakeholders involved, specifically the community leader from the slum, the municipality, and private sector developers, and MHT. The event saw a great response from NGOs, government officers, academia and international organizations. Geetaben, a grassroots leader from an Ahmedabad slum spoke at the panel.
