SIGUS: Special Interest Group in Urban Settlement
CHIANG MAI, THAILAND, 1999

The Thailand Workshop was held in the northern town of Chiangmai. Eight teams of students focused on squatter communities scattered throughout the city. Most of the communities squatted over canals, in small pockets, and were generally hidden from view. Several of the teams succeeded in securing improvements from city authorities for the communities they had worked with.
