Films like ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ and ‘Favela Rising’ give us a raw glimpse of what daily life is like in fast-growing cities in the developing world. But the sprawling slums of Mumbai and the fierce favelas of Rio de Janeiro are not the only neighbourhoods to be found, and life in the slums is not the only story to be told.

Rapid urbanisation and increased migration in Africa and Asia have helped drive sustainable development, and created jobs for millions who call the city their home. But fast-growing cities like Dhaka and Delhi also face growing poverty and inequality. How have neighbourhoods adapted to rapid urbanisation? What does this mean for housing, health and education? How do these neighbourhoods compare to where you live?
