    Abstract
    By 2050 more people of Bangladesh will be living in urban areas than rural areas. Therefore, instead of viewing migrants as source of urban problems, long term planning is required to create sustainable cities for all. Learning from lived experiences of new migrants can lead to more effective and sustainable solutions. Migrants of Chattogram are not a homogenous group and experience a host of different social, economic and environmental risks, depending on their gender, ethnicity and places of residence and work in the city. Therefore, interests of all groups need to be accommodated in planning. The efforts of different local city authorities and planners to provide services are often hampered due to limited coordination and communication. To overcome this, policy coherence and a system of coordination have to be developed.
