Urban Housing
Since housing constitutes a significant component of social dimension of sustainable development, its adequacy in terms of quantity and quality plays a dominant role in gauging the level of development as well as indicating a person’s standard of living in a society. The need for an effective housing delivery mechanism to stimulate progressive urbanization in our cities thus constitutes a critical challenge to urban governance and development in Pakistan in general, and in Sindh in particular.
