Abstract

The Housing Profile is a diagnostic tool that provides governments and other stakeholders with a systematic analysis of housing delivery systems at city and national level, helping to disclose bottlenecks, and identify gaps and opportunities in the housing sector. Developing a critical mass of relevant national data to understand these dynamics is the focus of a Housing Profile. This guide primarily targets policy makers, housing practitioners, decision makers, academics, think tanks and nongovernmental organizations involved in the challenge of housing the poor. Climate change adaptation calls for revisiting housing with a new focus on the form and spatial structure of cities.
