Children play at a building construction site in Dharavi slums. Home to over a million people, Dharavi, considered to be one of Asia's largest slums is a heart-shaped settlement in central Mumbai spread over an area of 1.75 km. Authorities in India's financial capital invited a global tender early June 2007 to tear down the slums and replace it with gleaming new apartments, but the project is a suspect in the eyes of most of its habitants.

Toliman is a municipality in the Mexican state of Queretaro. The town is considered as the purgatory waiting room, maybe because of the heat and the rough life. Its streets are always desolated by day. It barely houses about 150 inhabitants, most of them women and children. Rain is scarce and harvests are few with the exception of those vegetable packing companies with transnational capital that take advantage on the weather stability, the scarce frosts and the dry winds. Jobs in the vegetable fields are tough and the salaries are too low to live by. That is why people of this town immigrate to the US, but they do not lose memory or the fondness for their land.

Curzon Hall of Dhaka University. Curzon Hall was built to be a town hall, and named after Lord Curzon, the Viceroy of India, who laid its foundation in 1904. A year later Bengal was partitioned and Dhaka became the capital of the newly created province of East Bengal and Assam. Following the annulment of partition in 1911 it was used as a premise of Dhaka College, and after the establishment of Dhaka University in 1921, became part of the university's science section and continues as such. Laid out in a spacious and carefully maintained garden, this double-storey brick building has a large central hall, wings on the east and west and a continuous verandah on all sides.

One million children under five in southern and central Iraq continue to suffer from chronic malnutrition. Some 60 per cent of the entire population depend on monthly Government food rations, making them extremely vulnerable to any disruption in these supplies in the event of conflict. Widespread poverty and crumbling infrastructure, the result of years of conflict and 12 years of international economic sanctions, have affected all sectors, including massive deterioration of the country's water and sanitation systems.

Every year they adjust the height of their homes according to the rise of flood water. But this year they have to shift their homes to safer places. As the northern districts see the receding of flood waters, Dhaka and its surrounding regions are facing a terrible threat of disaster.

International poverty lines show that the proportion of poor people in Bangladesh is substantial. The Human Development Indicator (HDI) for Bangladesh in 2000 was 0.478 which means it ranked 145th among 173 (UNDP, 2002) confirming its high levels of human poverty compared to the rest of the world. Dhaka, the capital and primate city of Bangladesh, has been growing very rapidly, especially since independence in 1971. Most of the increasing population comprises rural landless destitute migrants who arrive in the city in search of basic subsistence. Due to the low affordability and shortage of lower class housing facilities they are forced to take shelter in slums where they live inhumanely. Moreover, repeated eviction creates very severe conditions for them. The Government of the People's Republic of Bangladesh has signed various international covenants related to housing rights that have also been reaffirmed in the national constitution and in housing policies.

The letters in the inscription, giving the exact date of construction, have been obliterated. But the name of Sultan Alauddin Husain Shah in the inscription suggests that the mosque must have been built sometime during his rule (1494 -1519 AD). The mosque is one of the best-preserved Sultanate monuments under the protection of the Department of Archaeology and Museums, Government of Bangladesh.
