Notes de l'éditeur
- While private sector investment in housing has increased, funding for large scale affordable housing and for expanding housing finance options for the urban poor remains limited
- MoI targets 11.a Strengthening national and regional development planning 11.b Adopting and implementing integrated policies and plans towards inclusion, resource efficiency, mitigation and adaptation to climate change, resilience to disasters, and develop and implement holistic disaster risk management 11.c Support least developed countries, including through financial and technical assistance, in building sustainable and resilient buildings utilizing local materials
- Accessibility to basic services: incl. water and sanitation; and in an urban and more developed rural context also includes lighting, electricity, and waste disposal. Context appropriate enabling policies should reduce the overall percentage of a population living in informal settlements Habitability: protection from natural elements, structural hazards, and disease. Habitability is supported by the presence and enforcement of appropriate and protective building codes, zoning, and other regulatory frameworks that ensure safety and adequate space, and can be applied to selfbuilding as well. Affordability: Housing costs should not threaten the attainment of other basic household needs. This dimension relates to policies and measures that ensure affordability of housing, these include subsidies, tax incentives and market regulation in more developed contexts. Housing subsidy incorporates mechanisms to monitor the proportion of the household’s income or expenditure devoted to housing costs. Security of Tenure: The legal right to secure tenure—whether through freehold, leasehold, renting, or other form of individual and collective rights to housing—involves protection from forced eviction, harassment and other threats. In effect, it also guarantees access to use of, and control over, land, property and housing resources. This domain includes measures to ensure compliance with a continuum of land rights, as well as policies to prohibit housing discrimination and to promote gender‐equal land rights.
- So, if this whole universe is covered – why do we need a New Urban Agenda?
- Once in twenty years UN conference; intergovernmental meeting; leading to the adoption of a document by UN member states Habitat I – led to establishment of UNCHS (now UN-HABITAT) Habitat II - led to adoption of the Habitat Agenda with twin goals of adequate shelter and sustainable human settlements for all Habitat III – will lead to the New Urban Agenda
- Expand and improve supply chain of social housing stock Enable community participation to support incremental housing, slum upgrading programs and community driven house supply Support green infrastructure including the development of energy-efficient housing and technologies Encourage 4Ps (people-public-private partnerships) in housing to close affordable housing gap Recognize a continuum of land rights Recognize land rights, not only as legal, but other such as ancestral, historical or the prolonged use Ensure gender equality especially in land inheritance rights
- Housing as a product and process Recognise housing as a sector of the economy, contribution of the sector in stimulating productivity in other economic sectors Address all forms of discrimination, prevent forced evictions, focus on the needs of the homeless and persons in vulnerable situations Increase security of tenure, recognizing the plurality of tenure types, gender-responsive solutions Support green infrastructure including the development of energy-efficient housing and technologies. Variety of housing options that are affordable and accessible for different income groups, enabling socio-economic and cultural integration of marginalized communities and homeless persons Integrate housing policies and approaches across all sectors and at all levels of government, focusing on provision of adequate, connected, affordable, accessible, safe, and well-located housing
