This book explores urban informality in Asian cities and looks how
the informal sector's contribution to inclusive and sustainable
growth can be enhanced. While supporting the livelihoods of most of
the developing world's urban poor, the informal sector also
deprives them of basic services and social protection. Rendered
vulnerable to socioeconomic threats, people in the urban informal
sector have suffered disproportionately during the COVID-19
pandemic and face a highly uncertain future. The book explores
informality's forms and constraints in Asian cities. It describes
the pandemic's effects on the informal sector and how leveraging
informal services can enable urban resilience. Drawing on
interdisciplinary research, the book illustrates the transformative
potential of urban planning and governance that addresses
informality. It also details measures that could boost the informal
sector's inclusive and sustainable growth potential.
