Addressing sources and drivers of precarity among marginalized migrant populations in urban spaces is central to making cities inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable for all. Yet dominant policy discourses continue to frame migrants as problematic causes of insecurity and tend to exclude them from policy processes. Deliberative democratic theory suggests that inclusive processes have the potential to create innovative solutions for resilient cities. This study elicits and reports on self‐identified sources of precarity and insecurity as experienced by new low‐income migrant populations. It combines visual ethnography and deliberative democracy tools in an action research process that facilitated dialogue between migrant populations, urban planners and policy stakeholders. The objective is to elicit policy opportunities and constraints for changing dominant discourses, with a view to enhance marginalized lives and to implement sustainable urban infrastructure in Chattogram, the second largest city of Bangladesh. The results show options for addressing precarity, developed through facilitating migrants and planners to engage with each other’s perspectives. Priorities include focusing on insecure tenure, exposure to environmental hazards, and representation in planning processes. Integrating the perspectives and lived experiences of migrant urban populations into policy processes potentially leads to more effective, sustainable and legitimate solutions.

解决流动人口城市不稳定问题的政策机遇与制约因素

解决城市空间中边缘化移民人口的危险源和驱动因素，对于使城市具有包容性，安全性，韧性和可持续性至所有人而言至关重要。然而，占主导地位的政策讨论继续将移民视为不安全问题的成因，并倾向于将他们排除在政策程序之外。协商民主理论认为，包容性进程有可能为富有弹性的城市创造创新的解决方案。这项研究得出并报告了新的低收入移民人口所经历的自我识别的不稳定和不安全感的根源。它在行动研究过程中结合了视觉人种学和协商民主工具，以促进移民人口，城市规划人员和政策利益相关者之间的对话。目的是为改变主流话语提供政策机会和限制，以期改善处于边缘地位的生活，并在孟加拉国第二大城市Chattogram实施可持续的城市基础设施。结果显示了通过促进移民和计划者相互理解而开发的解决不稳定问题的选项。优先事项包括关注不安全的保有权，暴露于环境危害以及在计划过程中的代表。将移徙城市人口的观点和生活经验纳入政策进程可能会导致更有效，可持续和合法的解决方案。孟加拉第二大城市。结果显示了通过促进移民和计划者相互理解而开发的解决不稳定问题的选项。优先事项包括关注不安全的保有权，暴露于环境危害以及在计划过程中的代表。将移徙城市人口的观点和生活经验纳入政策进程可能会导致更有效，可持续和合法的解决方案。孟加拉第二大城市。结果显示了通过促进移民和计划者相互理解而开发的解决不稳定问题的选项。优先事项包括关注不安全的保有权，暴露于环境危害以及在计划过程中的代表。将移徙城市人口的观点和生活经验纳入政策进程可能会导致更有效，可持续和合法的解决方案。
