Urban Housing Strategy, Ministry of Ministry of Urban Development and Construction

Year: 2013

Type: Domestic policy

Rights Category: Housing, land & property

Description

The main foundation for this strategy is the Urban Development Policy. The strategy is developed against the background of pressing needs for the development of standardized residential and working houses in urban centers which are fully provided with basic services and accessible to majority of the society in terms of price and facilities. Clearly, the strategy impacts refugees in many ways since it facilitates the development, expansion and availability of housing stocks that possess the required standards by a range of sector players; furthermore, the strategy anticipates regulating sale, transfer and housing lease relationships. However, in particulars, and especially in the context of availing opportunities of access to housing ownership, the strategy’s interventions and social objectives are focused on citizens, with substantial emphasis also given to women and civil servants.
