Literature Research


Current ways of regeneration Mixed housing polices only treat the symptoms of deprivation Attracts more affluent people to the area which increases the overall statistics (Cheshire, 2009). Interventions to attract those people cause value increases >> displacement


Empowerment Focus on the cause of deprivation Increase Employment, Health and Education outcomes

Gentrification of London New build regeneration projects can provide amities for the surrounding deprived areas to prevent value increases in those underprivileged areas.
