Considering the urban environmental crisis all over the world, especially in populous countries like India, there is a need to cater to sustainable needs of every citizen of the country, to address this, a private survey was conducted among urban slum dwellers to know their needs. The proposed urban slum greening project, a result of the said survey, aims to transform underdeveloped slum areas into healthier, sustainable, and vibrant communities. It includes designing and developing green spaces within the limited space and resource and improving hygiene and waste management. It also enhances the environment by reducing pollution, tackling heat, and fostering biodiversity. It also improves residents’ quality of life, reduces stress, improves mental health, it encourages sustainable living practices and fosters a sense of responsibility in slum residents by empowering them to become environmental guardians by means of water management, renewable energy, community involvement and education. Urban slum greening, how will it affect or benefit urban slum dwellers? How will it benefit nature? These are the main questions this paper aims to address. For those living in urban slums, the project envisions a more nutritious, greener, and increasingly prosperous tomorrow.
