What are slums detention?

Slum detention refers to the practice of confining individuals within impoverished urban areas, often characterized by inadequate housing, poor sanitation, and lack of basic services. This phenomenon can occur as a result of government policies aimed at controlling or relocating populations living in informal settlements. Such detention may exacerbate the socio-economic challenges faced by residents, leading to further marginalization and human rights concerns. Overall, slum detention highlights the intersection of urban poverty, governance, and social justice issues.
