Introduction
“Informal Settlements are sustainable when they can cope with and recover from stresses and shocks. This concept can be achieved by maintaining or enhancing their capabilities and assets. This is for both now and in the future, while not undermining the natural resource base”.

There have been different policies, strategies and programs devised by third world governments to solve the urban housing problem which is the main breeding platform for Informal Settlements. These approaches include different programs, such as; public housing, sites and services, redevelopment, slum and area upgrading, among others; but none of which could address the environmental quality and housing needs on a bigger scale. People established self-planned settlements or; Informal Settlements, in response to this unsustainable and ineffective land transformation system. Such areas have long been treated in a reactive manner. Policies and practices that supported this approach contributed less to the overall urban quality of life and failed to stop further growing of Informal Settlements. This call’s for descriptive approaches that would reduce losses experienced by Informal Settlements and stop their continued reproduction. To establish such a system; driving forces of Informal Settlements should be detected and probable future areas must be integrated in future urban planning. Therefore, addressing the problems that constitute the expansion and densification of Informal Settlements are the main focus in this research.

The discussion tackles the principles of sustainability as a way to obtain quality and efficiency in Informal Settlements, through mooring the three main pillars of sustainability; the economic dimension, the ecologic dimension and the social dimension. The principle of social participation is most important; whereas the rolls of nongovernmental organizations, youth and charities in relieving the burden on governments towards better qualities of life in Informal Settlements.
The research also displays some serious challenges that restrain sustainable development in Informal Settlements that faces planners and developers of such areas including; economic and housing challenges, social and institutional challenges and finally environmental challenges.
