Notes

Found via MIT Media Lab publication 'Informal Cities: Data-Driven Approaches to Housing Informality in South Asia' (2024). Expert in exactly the type of community housing model Rukh is proposing. Not yet contacted — needs a warm intro approach, possibly through AKF UK network. Rizwan may also be a strong grant writer for the USAID component.

Drafting cold email to Dr. Rizwan Malik at MIT. Will reference his 2024 publication and our Rukh brief. Plan to ask if he'd be willing to do a paid expert review of the housing design (2 days at £800/day). Warm intro via AKF UK being explored as alternative approach.
