1. Global Housing Status The world is experiencing a global housing crisis. About 1.6 billion people

live in substandard housing and 100 million are homeless, according to

United Nations statistics. These people are increasingly urban residents, and every week more than

Today, a billion people32 percent of the global urban populationlive

in urban slums.

If no serious action is taken, the United Nations reports that the number

of slum dwellers worldwide will increase over the next 30 years to nearly

2 billion.

The Way Forward..

Despite the efforts of the Government, Housing

Access for all remains a daunting task to beaccomplished.

Provision of Condominium housing is a viable wayof meeting the housing shortage.

However the magnitude of the problem ismammoth.

The need is also to explore alternative tools and

self help methodologies as adopted in otherdeveloping countries so as to mitigate the gap.

Provision of adequate Housing for all must beachievable through appropriate interventions.
