New Urban Infrastructure in the Global South?

Asked by tessa (215points) December 22nd, 2008

Anyone out there who can tell me about this? What are the megacities of Latin America, Africa, Middle East, and Southeast Asia doing? Who is really into things like decentralized water treatment? Mesh Computer Networks? Open-source cities? Anything along those lines.

An interesting trend is skipping over landlines and just going to cell phones. Who needs ground infrastructure when wireless already works?
