Since 1800, the world has experienced the process of migration from rural areas to cities. In 1800, only 3% of total population lived in the urban areas, but in the following two centuries, the population of cities has rapidly increased to over 50% (Godfrey and Julien, 2005). Because of the development of technology, farming has been becoming more effective than ever. The increasing number of farmer has been losing their jobs (Knoll, 2014). Therefore, in many developing countries, the better conditions and opportunities of cities are attracting people to migrate from rural areas (2014). However, the growth of unprepared urbanization, which results in the lack of infrastructure, is also threatening people`s life (United Nations., 2014). . For

According to Knoll, a city that is 10% larger in population offers wages that are 0.2 to 1% higher (2014). 30% to 60% population in the poor countries are living in slum (Godfrey and Julien, 2005). The insufficient supply is threating people who living in slum considerably. Lots of disease is spreading because of urbanisation. Some factors such as shortage of space and the highly pressure on water supply are putting people in the danger. In 2002, 51% of populations in developing countries still lacked proper sanitation and more than 20% of them were living with lacking safe and sufficient drinking water (Srivastava, 2009). Moreover, the infectious disease, such as diarrhoea and worm infection, is also spreading via contaminated water …show more content…
The garbage measure reduced the pollution (Rabinovitch, 1992). The sufficient supply of clear water ensured people to maintain health. It offered the foundation of health. The transport improvement helped the city to connect more efficient and reduced the individual transport (1992). Because of above, more industries could produce product in a sustainable way and more workers could work in safe condition. It provides the job opportunities good working conditions at the same time without pollutions The large green space improved environment and benefited in people`s health (1992).
Furthermore, some principles of Curitiba have been approved (Rabinovitch, 1992). Firstly, the establishment of cities should be under a goal, know exactly where it is going. Secondly, the transport system is very important. The development cannot go alone without efficient transport. Thirdly, the “hidden structure” as important as the visible structure, people should always be the root of one city. Finally, sustainable development should be a common goal for world. The management of waste is guaranteed the people`s health and provided the job opportunities at the same
