Duties and Responsibilities: The PSUP is acknowledged for its approach aligned with the New Urban Agenda and the SDGs and tested in many ACP countries with many success stories, lessons to be learnt and opportunities for up-scaling. In the past, globally often slum upgrading has been approached through a project-to-project basis and experience has shown that this approach is ineffective, because it rarely gained scale and/or replication. For making slum upgrading sustainable there is a current shift towards strategic and inclusive city-wide slum upgrading with pro-active measures which PSUP is implementing.
