Bibliography: leaves 95-97. / Though there has been a rapidly growing body of texts that is concerned with understanding the consequences of HIV/AIDS on urban development planning (Harber, 2001; Tomlinson, 2001; Van Donk, 2003), the translation of this knowledge into tangible improvements of people's lives has not happened yet, due to a nonexistent or very slow policy response and poor implementation. Besides political obstacles, this lack of response is equally caused by the absence of clearly defined targeted intervention strategies based on a comprehensive, realistic and holistic analysis of the situation. So far HIV/ AIDS has been understood and responded to as mainly a medical problem. This dissertation pulls together the diverse dynamics and impacts of HIV/AIDS on urban development and poverty in South Africa and uses this information to develop context sensitive intervention models and implementation strategies.
