In a successful public-private partnership, three years after its inception, the Aga Khan Historic Cities Programme in Hazrat Nizamuddin Basti has been able to usher in visible changes in the life of the community settled here over centuries. Inspired from similar conservation-based development projects in Kabul and Cairo, also being carried out by the Aga Khan Trust for Culture (AKTC), the Hazrat Nizamuddin Basti Urban Renewal Project goes beyond mere restoration of monuments and engages in activities related to adaptive re-use, contextual urban planning and the improvement of housing, infrastructure and public spaces.
