I want.........
During this hectic period, I feel like I didn't have the time to reflect and contemplate.I even couldn't look for or read articles that would help me to understand better the complexity of Dharavi. Therefore, drawing general conclusions is in my opnion a little bit dangerous and even impossible.Time to reflect and to deepen into the subject starts for me after the exhibition, when I have the time to sort things out. It's not so easy to get an understanding of a slum, no matter it's size, without drawing conclusions; we always tend to draw conclusions in order to get that understanding. Therefore, I cannot say that I understand completely the situation, that I know exactly what is going on.Rather I would say that I gathered some thoughts, ideas and made some remarks that could help me eventually.
My intention to participate in this course was to broaden my understanding of slums in general. And of course, partly I required more knowlegde. But this knowlegde is more about what I need to do and what I need to read in order to get the understanding of such a complex body like a slum. I feel like the other part of knowlegde about slums, the hardcore information, need to be explored more under different circumstances in different countries. Hopefully then, I will be able to get a fully understanding of slums and their complexities.
