Description
Highlights
- We analyse wellbeing priorities and satisfactions in seven informal settlements in three Bangladeshi cities (Dhaka, Chittagong, Bogra)
- Wellbeing priorities are similar across settlements but satisfaction with achieved wellbeing outcomes differs by site and by socio-economic groups
- People's subjective assessments of how they fare on wellbeing priorities are consistent with relevant objective indicators of their wellbeing
- Wellbeing outcomes are substantively mediated by site-specific governance arrangements for essential services
- Urban policy makers lack methodologies and metrics to support interventions that are relevant to wellbeing dynamics in particular localities
