Partnership for infrastructure in the musseques of Luanda.

Abstract

The impact of CARE Angola's Luanda Urban Rehabilitation and Enterprise project (LURE) on the household livelihood security of the urban poor living within the Municipality of Kilamba Kiaxi is explored in the context of the changing political context in Angola.The study focuses on the relationships between income generation and neighbourhood improvements in the un-serviced low-income settlements (musseques) of Kilamba Kiaxi, one of the nine municipalities that make up the Province of Luanda, the capital city of Angola. The objective is to gain an understanding of the dynamics that govern the relationship between financial and physical assets at the household, neighbourhood and municipal levels.
