The number of Chinese citizens aged 60 years and above is predicted to reach to 440 million by 2050, accounting for roughly 34 percent of the country's total population. The one-child policy has created a declining fertility rate. At the same time, the life expectancy of people keeps rising. The combination of low fertility and long life spans have moved China towards a rapidly aging society. To prepare for the aging society, the Chinese government has issued a series of policies to enhance the senior care industry. The government encourages private and foreign enterprises to invest and engage in senior care services in China. Chinese developers and operators are trying to import foreign practices into the Chinese context. Foreign experts are looking for business opportunities in this untapped market. Although China's senior housing market is undoubtedly appealing, industry players must address several issues before stepping into this market because it is still in infancy period compared to other developed countries. The study examines the key factors that influence senior housing development in China, and those essential elements that foster the industry in U.S.

Sub-Saharan Africa has been experiencing phenomenal population growth since the beginning of the 20th Century, following several centuries of population stagnation attributable to the slave trade and colonization. The region's population in fact increased from 100 million in 1900 to 770 million in 2005. The latest United Nations projections, published in March 2007, envisaged a figure of 1.5 to 2 billion inhabitants being reached between the present and 2050 (CEPED, 2008). The growth in population poses a lot of challenges for Governments of these countries, not the least is housing the masses. Some governments have explored industrialized building systems (IBS) -- PREFAB HOUSES to address the housing shortage. The social and economic factors in these countries have impeded the success of these housing initiatives. In 1952 the then Gold Coast government explored the possibility of employing industrialized Building Systems (IBS) -- PREFAB HOUSES to relieve the housing shortage in the country, then a British colony. The government engaged Messrs. N. V. Schokbeton of Kampen, Holland as consultant of the project and producers of the Prefab houses. The program was abandoned on the recommendation of the United Nations Technical Assistance Mission on Housing to Ghana. This essence of this paper is to reviews the UN report to the government of Gold Coast to learn why the project failed and what might be done to make such a project successful in the 21st century . This paper uses case studies to show countries that have successfully and unsuccessfully employed Industrialized Building Systems (IBS) -- PREFAB HOUSES to address housing shortage. Finally, this paper employs a survey to gauge the interest - the willingness of the middle income Ghanaian to adopt prefab houses as dwelling units.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Urban land prices have important effects on urban development and locational distribution of land-uses. Housing is one of those sectors. There are high-density residential areas covering high-rise apartments at the city center where the land prices are quite high. Here, sizes of the plots and the housing units are relatively small. However, land prices begin to decrease with the increasing distance from the city center and the production of low-density, low-rise housing which is economically unfeasible at the center turns to be feasible for the housebuilders at the outskirts.
Low-rise houses at the urban fringe provides various opportunities for the households. In these areas, plots and housing units are relatively larger due to cheap and available land. In addition to this, better urban services, quiet and clean environment as well as privacy contribute to create a livable urban environment. However, households living in low-rise housing units are subject to high transportation and maintenance costs. It is expected that they would compensate these costs with larger housing units, prestigious urban environment and many opportunities that their neighborhoods offer.
Urbanization processes may be differ from one country to another with respect to the socio-economic and political structures, and the environmental characteristics. In that sense, low-rise housing areas at the urban fringe of Ankara were found to be developed highly compatible with urban land use theoriesbut different from the processes experienced in developed countries, to some extent. With regard to these, low-rise housing development in Ankara is discussed according to plan decisions, housebuilders, households and urban development pattern, considering the theoretical basis and historical processes.

In recent years, along with the soaring housing price level, housing problem in China turned out to be in the spotlight more than ever before. With the high housing price, low and moderate-income families find it very difficult for them to buy their own dwelling. In order to meet the needs of low and and moderate-income families and lessen the overheating, Chinese goverment carried out some plans, one among which was the Public Rental Housing program. Public Rental Housings mostly serve for low and moderate-income family to live, with a lower rent than market rent on the same condition. And there are other limits or drawbacks sach as monitioring and housing register problem. Details of the limits differ from city to city. In this thesis, Public rental Housing project in Chong Qing, the first city implemented Public rental Housing to a great extent in China will be studied. Market analysis on both demand side and supply side is carried out to examine the influence on residential market and whether Public Rental housing can ease the overheating in residential market. A questionnaire is used to study public acknowledgement and satisfaction with Public Rental Housing projects in Beijing (for convenience). The finding is: Current public Rental Housing can ease the market but this policy requires better financing resource, subsidy policy to back up, monitor system and more involvement of society resources.

The issue of abandoned housing project is a matter of grave importance in Malaysia. This study sought to identify the causes leading to the problem from the view point of neo-classical and institutional economic analysis. Having that aim in mind, the research focused on reviewing available literature on the applicability of neo-classical and institutional theories in land and property market analysis, understanding the abandoned housing projects, identifying institution affecting housing development in Malaysia, examining the role of market signal, identifying the causes of abandoned housing projects and recommending suitable policies to prevent and solve the problem of abandoned projects. Extensive field work was done in order to collect primary data for the study. Surveys and semi-structured interviews were done using sample study areas which comprises of 6 different states in Malaysia. The respondents in this study are sample from the population of private developers. Based on the findings, it can be concluded that the cause of abandonment of housing projects relates to institutional factors and failure to respond appropriately to market signal.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Housing, as the principal focus of personal and family life, has a pervasive impact on all aspects of our existence, providing privacy and security, both physical and emotional, while embodying not only our material possessions, but also our dreams and despair. For most households in developing countries, financing housing constitutes a substantial proportion of household expenditure. Most research on housing finance focuses on measures of affordability and establishment of formal institutions. Others restrict their field of inquiry to the implementation of micro-credit facilities for incremental housing by lower income groups. Due to successive failures of public housing in many developing countries, strategies advocated by the global community tend towards diverting State involvement from provision to facilitation effective regulatory mechanisms deemed essential to enable private enterprise and informal practices in housing provision. Maldives experienced rapid economic growth during the last decades propelled by the expansion of tourism Yet, economic and social disparities between the capital, Male, and other islands continue to exist Consequently, in-migration to Male has fuelled an insatiable demand for housing. In the absence of formal housing finance, plot-holders in Male cannot construct multi storey housing that optimised land scarcity. This research focuses on the process by which private developers rent land from plot-holders to construct multi-storey rental housing, resulting in: income and shelter security for plot-holders increase in housing stock of Male and accumulation of capital for developers, with minimal State involvement or institutional support. Quantitative and qualitative data were collected from renters, plot-holders and developers through purposive sampling. Based on the ideological perspective of rational choice theory, grounded theory methodology was utilised to develop a substantive theory on housing finance that. in situations of absolute scarcity of land, and low levels of institutional support, the decisions of private developers in the process of multi-storey rental housing production appear within the paradigm of rational utility maximisation. However, deeper analyses of their motives reveal elements of altruism, benevolence and charity dominating their decisions within the socio-cultural milieu of Male where kith and kin relationships influence investment decisions.

In the 1970s and 80s, the rapid development of San Francisco's Financial District encroached upon Chinatown's intimately-scaled neighborhood. Developers took whole city blocks that housed low-income immigrants to build the glass and steel office towers that define the city's current skyline. In response, the Chinatown community organized to downzone the neighborhood, which effectively froze the neighborhood from any further development. Today, the continual influx of immigrants who are dependent on Chinatown's services demand greater affordable housing in the neighborhood. As affordable housing becomes scarcer citywide and as Chinatown's building stock ages, neighborhood leaders want to know how to meet the high need for well-maintained affordable housing within the neighborhood. This thesis will examine the barriers that prevent affordable housing development in San Francisco's Chinatown. While affordable housing is a citywide issue not limited to Chinatown, the city's efforts have been targeted at redevelopment of outlying and industrial parts of the city rather than within existing neighborhoods. Special neighborhood zoning, cultural values of residents and property owners, intra-community politics, and its particular history make the development a highly contested issue. I will argue that the neighborhood's zoning (including bulk limits and inclusionary requirements) has been too restrictive to develop viable affordable housing in Chinatown and will propose rezoning as one mechanism for affordable housing development.
(cont) I will further illustrate the impacts of zoning changes in height and density on the neighborhood's urban form. The thesis will also provide insight into incentives and partnerships with public and financial institutions that can motivate long-time property owners to rehabilitate or redevelop their properties. My conclusions and proposals will be informed by key informant interviews with current property owners, residents, community organizers, and city officials in Chinatown and San Francisco. My hope is that by examining Chinatown as a case study and developing regulatory and economic strategies to encourage affordable housing development, it will also serve as a resource for other low-income built-out urban neighborhoods.

In recent years, the Chinese government transformed their national system of housing provision and introduced market mechanisms. The consequent boom in residential real estate development and the emergence of speculative practices dramatically increased housing prices in cities. Low- and moderate-income households are being priced out of homeownership. The lack of affordable urban housing is increasingly framed as an issue of equity that is linked inherently to China's political identity as a communist nation. As such, the central government is experimenting with policy to address the issue of affordability in a commercialized housing market. The controversial "70 percent, 90 square meters rule" is one such policy that has started discussions on the development of mixed income housing. Given the current policy trend, private developers can reasonably foresee requirements to incorporate affordable housing in future developments. The primary purpose of this thesis is to highlight the growing segregation of housing based on income in China and examine the concept of mixing incomes for future urban housing developments. New luxury developments in urban centers are clustering high-income households together while spatially separating them from low- and middle-income households.
(cont.) This thesis does not address how to supply more affordable housing, but rather examines an alternative that incorporates affordable housing within otherwise market-rate developments. The initial chapters provide a synopsis of the current urban housing situation in China as well as the historical housing policies in which it emerged from. Thereafter, three mixed-income housing developments in Boston, Massachusetts, USA were studied: Rollins Square, Harbor Point, and the Metropolitan. For each case, factors explored include project background, income mixture, marketing strategy, financial structure, design and layout, and property management/operations. The spectrum and resolution of income mixing were examined in detail. Research conducted includes interviews with developers, property managers, and other project participants as well as site visits, and reviews of project documentation. Case studies also include an analysis of critical success factors for each. The thesis concludes with observations and implications believed to be important to developers and policy makers contemplating or presently engaged in developing housing in cities across China.

What, When and Where to Develop? The purpose of this study is to help find the major areas of opportunity for housing development and production in Mexico. The thesis intends to help developers in their eternal quest for the right product, location and timing. The answer to these questions will not only help developers with decision making regarding housing projects, but will be helpful to the industry as a whole. It will help lending institutions determine which projects to finance and will be a valuable tool for local and federal governments in determining which cities and income levels or housing products need higher government subsidy or support. The number of housing units sold in Mexico in the last decade has almost quadrupled, yet market forecasts generated by institutions and developers seem negligible. A greater effort to assess the housing demand and deficit has been made by private institutions and government entities which finance most housing sales in the country, while developers seem only to go as far as is necessary to secure financing for their respective projects. This study provides an outlook of the housing markets in Mexico and includes an analysis of what is currently being done to measure and forecast housing demand. The thesis concludes with rigorous economics analysis intended to forecast markets through a Vector Autoregression (VAR) Model. The model uses 15 years of historical data on housing prices, inventories and sales with economic and demographic variables to create forecasts for seven cities representing each of the seven regions the country was segmented into for the study.

The thesis is set in Mongolia, looking specifically at Ulaanbaatar City. As a native Mongolian with an educational background in a European context, an opportunity was presented to offer a critical appraisal of the city from an outsiders perspective informed by a deeper cultural understanding of the context. The city is observed from a masterplanning scale starting from the beginnings of its built urban history to its current state. An interrogation of the development plans for 2020/ 2030 and research conducted during a site visit in January provides the basis for a housing proposal. The design proposal acts as a criticism on the development seen during the urbanization of Ulaanbaatar and is a reactionary response to the problems identified during the first half of the thesis. A unit and tower typology is developed that attempts to study the traditional form of dwelling, a ger, while also being informed by the soviet architecture and decoration seen throughout the city. The site strategy employed addresses issues of preservation of ger districts, the downsizing of green public spaces within the city and a lack of architectural intent in the recent housing tower blocks that is invading the city fabric.

Most international and local (South African) research on housing examine housing tenure in terms of static categories, - i.e. does someone own or rent their accommodation - without capturing either the dynamics of how people occupy housing or the complexities that arise when, for example, someone might rent accommodation while owning a house elsewhere. Most censuses and surveys simply ask whether the household living in a sampled house (or apartment, etc) currently rents or owns that house. I find access to housing to be a better analytical category than tenure arguing that renting and owner occupier housing are not exclusive categories, and can co-exist, and that additional categories should be identified.

In this report, housing development and perticipation of communities are examined. Although houses have been build in certain areas of Khayelitsha , there is a slow delivery and there is a lack of public involvement in housing programme to decide about the future of the community. In order for any development to be sustainable it must be driven by affected people with a sense of ownership being engendered to them. This holistic approach for housing development is in line up with the current government policy on the matter.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
In 1986, during Yukon's worst recession in twenty years, the territorial government began a two-year process to develop an economic development strategy. The result was Yukon 2000, a plan for community economic development (CED). Concurrently, but not as part of Yukon 2000, the 1986 Yukon Housing Needs Study reported the percentage of people in core housing need in Yukon highest in Canada. This thesis identifies new policy initiatives to meet housing needs and help achieve the community economic development goals of Yukon 2000.
The Yukon 2000 process overlooked the housing industry for several reasons. These include the industry's low visibility during the recession in the early 1980's. Also, decision makers and planners knew very little about the industry because the data base for the Yukon housing industry is extremely weak. Most CMHC statistical reports either meld data on Yukon with data on another jurisdiction or do not report on Yukon.
The goals of Yukon 2000 are to provide options for people to earn a living in Yukon, to control their future, to protect the environment and to create an equitable society. These goals apply to the Yukon community and to each community within the territory. Critical to achieving these goals is diversifying the narrow base of the isolated economy, in part, through import replacement, meeting social needs, devolving decision making and distributing resources more equitably.
The Market and Non-Market sectors of the Yukon housing industry are unstable and there is strong evidence the Market Rental sector is not working. Throughout the 1980's, the Yukon and Canada housing corporations have consistently failed to meet planning targets for new social housing. This thesis defines policy options for the Yukon government to stabilize the industry, meet planning targets and increase federal spending in Yukon. Housing is a unique industry because of what housing means to individuals, groups and communities. The right to adequate, affordable and suitable shelter is a fundamental one not available to about one third of people in Yukon. On a per household basis, the housing corporation in the Northwest Territories has ten times more social housing than the housing corporation in Yukon.
Yukon Housing Corporation and Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation have funding for about 130 new social housing units each year. Increases in the Yukon population will generate demand for an additional 300 new units each year through the 1990's. New construction and housing renovations are an important part of the small Yukon economy.
This thesis developed sixteen criteria to measure the impact of fourteen housing programs on CED. These criteria were developed from the goals and objectives of Yukon 2000 and the literature on CED. This thesis compares the relative impact of each program on CED. Based on this analysis, modifications to program delivery are suggested.
The Yukon economy is particularly susceptible to boom and bust cycles. These cycles and other characteristics of the economy inhibit investment in the housing industry despite generous government incentives to businesses. This thesis proposes ways to increase this investment.
The Yukon government has the resources to meet housing needs and stabilize the housing industry. That Yukon government can use the industry to diversify the economy and help achieve the four Yukon 2000 goals. It can create a win-win environment, meet housing needs, create employment and business opportunities and develop new leadership. This thesis describes the important roles of governments, the private sector, communities and nongovernmental organizations in the housing industry. It describes the possible roles of each in a CED strategy to respond to housing needs and problems with the housing industry.Applied Science, Faculty of

Uffer, Sabina. "The uneven development of Berlin’s housing provision". Thesis, London School of Economics and Political Science (University of London), 2011. http://etheses.lse.ac.uk/204/.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Since the end of the 1990s, Berlin’s housing has been described by a transformation from state- to market-led provision, creating more socially and spatially segregated neighbourhoods. The underlying processes exacerbating and reproducing these inequalities have however rarely been addressed. This thesis investigates the question how the transformation of Berlin’s mode of housing provision generated particular forms of social and spatial inequalities. It begins from a state-focused approach to regulation theory and the related debate on the contemporary form of urban governance of the entrepreneurial city. The thesis identifies three transformation processes of Berlin’s mode of housing provision, which are informed by critical realist housing research. First, the privatisation of state-owned housing and the entrance of institutional investors; second, the reformation of the remaining state-owned housing companies and their adaptation to the government’s social and economic demands; and third, the abandonment of supplyside subsidies for the construction and renovation of housing. The analysis of these three processes exposes how regulation, production, and consumption mechanisms play out under particular spatial and temporal circumstances, creating social and spatial inequalities. A particular emphasis lies on the production mechanisms defined through the diverging strategies of different institutional investors and state-owned housing companies. The thesis concludes with a reflection upon the benefits of a critical realist methodology for analysing state restructuring. It is argued that only through the application of a critical realist methodology, the strengths of the regulation theory’s conceptualisation of state transformation can fully be deployed. The thesis therefore goes beyond an affirmation of a more entrepreneurial mode of housing provision in Berlin, deploying a critical realist approach to reveal the underlying mechanisms of the particular mode of housing provision and its uneven consequences.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The release of land for new housing development represents a primary function of the planning system within the United Kingdom. At the same time, it represents one of the most debated aspects of land use planning. Indeed, on the 5th June 1996, at the annual conference of the Royal Town Planning Institute, the then Secretary of State for the Environment, John Gummer, appealed for a national debate on the provision on new housing. He stressed that the projected growth in housing demand would have severe implications for the environment unless many of the issues associated with the growth were fully and openly discussed. This research explores the allocation of housing land within a high growth area. Using the former Grampian Region (Scotland) as a case study, the research investigates the principal technical and procedural issues associated with the release of land for new housing development. A range of qualitative and quantitative techniques are employed, set within a 'Structure and Agency' framework. The initial quantitative stage includes a detailed analysis of planning applications, appeals and residential development figures for the Aberdeen area. This provides an overview of the location and nature of past housing development and enables the identification of a number of issues pertinent to the release of housing land. These issues are subsequently discussed with the principal agents involved, namely, planners, developers, elected councillors and the general public. The main findings of the study suggest that the scale and location of new housing development, has and will continue to, represent one of the most controversial aspects of land use planning. This controversy has a protracting effect on the preparation of structure and local development plans throughout the United Kingdom. These delays increase the difficulty of maintaining an adequate supply of housing land and consequently expose the system to the appeal process and ultimately, the control of the developer. This undermines the influence of the other agents (planners, councillors and the public) as the system becomes increasingly 'appeal-led' and controlled by central government. At a specific level, the research questions the medium to long-term capacity of the Aberdeen area to accommodate brownfield housing alongside the extent to which the current planning system caters for residential choice. It suggests that further greenfield releases may be necessary at a strategic level in order to provide an adequate supply (and choice) of housing land. The study argues that the current approach towards housing land allocation is overly concerned with releasing a sufficient supply of housing to meet demand and fails to consider the extent to which this land will provide an adequate choice of housing. It is considered that the predominance of flatted accommodation within redeveloped brownfield sites and associated failure to provide an adequate choice of house type, size and location will only exacerbate the public's desire for suburban and rural living. Reservations are also expressed with regard to the current direction of policy thinking on brownfield housing, in particular, the drive towards maximising the density of such housing and corresponding desire for local planning authorities to review industrial land allocations in favour of residential use. The study recommends that further research is required in order to address the issue of housing choice within a brownfield-led strategy. It also recommends that the current level of central government involvement in local decision making requires further investigation. The requirement for planning authorities to provide an adequate and continuous supply of housing land and the extent to which this prevents authorities from fully accounting for windfall sites within their housing land strategies represents another issue upon which future research is required. Above all, the study illustrates the manner in which debate on the issue of housing land has progressed over the last five years. This clearly strengthens its validity as an issue worthy of detailed consideration. In this respect, further research is needed to refine the land use planning system and ensure that the future allocation of housing land can be undertaken more effectively.

Recently Australian governments and the housing industry have argued that planning was, in part, responsible for low rates of housing supply growth during a period of strong population growth and high house prices. In response, this study explored how planning influences the decisions industry makes regarding the housing projects it is responsible for delivering. Thirty nine industry professionals from public, private and community sector organisations, and thirty six public sector planners from local, state and federal agencies, in NSW, ACT and SA participated, while the Sydney Growth Centres provided a contemporary case study. The study found planning was secondary to the priority influences on industry decisions of market, unique organisational characteristics, the site, and financial or economic conditions. Each housing project is a unique combination of these factors, and therefore inconsistent with the strategic planning framework to some extent. The principal planning influence was therefore ‘time’ associated with undertaking strategic planning processes, during which mandatory planning approvals cannot be obtained and new housing cannot be delivered. Contrary to recent planning reform agendas that emphasis standardisation and clearly articulated strategic plans, it was found ‘responsive’ planning that integrates the activities and knowledge of industry, with planning processes and infrastructure agency activities could facilitate the delivery of housing projects that reflect planning objectives, while shortening time frames. However, this should not compromise ‘certainty’ and ‘transparency’, which is valued by community, government, infrastructure agencies and industry. A ‘relational’ approach to planning, where plans are structured frameworks for considering urban problems, opportunities and proposals may address the certainty versus responsiveness tension. Planners would be responsible for facilitating pragmatic solutions that balance competing urban interests. Further research that addresses responsive and relational strategic planning in an Australian context, and the crucial role of public sector planners as they engage with industry and balance competing urban interests is suggested.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The housing shortage in Swedish growth regions has been heatedly debated for a number of years. Extensive reform proposals have been made by market actors and academics. The former center–right government in power until 2014 emphasized reform of the urban planning process. The current “red–green” government has ongoing planning reform on its agenda, but has instead emphasized investment subsidies. In the debate, the German housing market has been put forward as a positive example. This licentiate thesis compares the early stages of housing development in Germany and Sweden to find any differences that could provide interesting points of discussion related to further housing market reform in Sweden. As the scope of such an analysis could be very wide, this thesis is restricted to urban planning law and implementation, and to city initiatives to increase housing supply, including the affordable housing segment. The first step of the research project was to identify the major problems related to Swedish planning law and its implementation and to map the current state of reform. The identified problems encompassed issues related to municipal strategies for housing construction, the urban planning process, the appeal process, areas classified as of national interest, regulations, development agreements, and municipal land allocation. The article “The Planning Process in Sweden: current debate and reform proposals” summarizes the government inquiries, bills, and reforms introduced to date and gives an outlook on possible future urban planning reform in light of recent political developments. Second, the urban planning and appeal processes in Germany and Sweden were compared. The article “Promoting Planning for Housing Development: what can Sweden learn from Germany?” discusses three alternative processes in German local planning (i.e., private initiative, facilitated procedures in built-up areas, and omission of the local plan under certain circumstances) as well as the organization of planning authorities and city demands for affordable housing. The conclusion includes a proposal for a facilitated local housing plan, the introduction of private initiative in planning, and ways to improve planning authority organization in Sweden. When it comes to planning-related city demands for affordable housing, more research drawing on extensive international experience is required. Third, city strategies for housing construction were compared in the article “City Strategies for Affordable Housing: the approaches of Berlin, Hamburg, Stockholm and Gothenburg.” Although the housing shortages in these four cities differ somewhat in structure, the tools for implementing housing policy related to construction are similar and address organization, urban planning, land allocation, and subsidies. The German cities have a more active housing policy, cooperating with developers and using tools more consistently, than do their Swedish counterparts. They are also more likely to reach their construction goals. The overall findings of the research project stress the importance of political incentives in the formation of active housing policy.QC 20151216

South Africa is experiencing unprecedented population growth due to rapid urbanisation. This growth often overwhelms the current planning and developmental capacities of city-regions acutely impacting informal settlement areas. As a result the city's most vulnerable citizens experience poor service delivery and poor living conditions. This project proposal challenges the current approach to housing delivery and the upgrading of informal settlements in urban areas of South Africa. It is positioned within a complex informal housing environment with poor basic infrastructure and high exposure to the risk of fire and flooding in winter. Based on the research of this project, the Barney Molokana Section in Khayelitsha was selected as the conditions above were evident in this informal settlement. The project comprises three parts; the first is a proposal for an infrastructural intervention aimed to act as a settlement organisational device, the second is a public amenities building that promotes an active public interface and a didactic architecture and the third a series of support structures that further promote the concept of incremental housing development. The process learnt from existing spatial configurations and transformations within informal settlements allowed the working backwards to discover the minimal elements or support structures from which a settlement can grow incrementally.

Indonesia is in its era of development in almost every aspect of human life in which these development are directed and guided by the State Guidelines. One priority under the State Guidelines is housing development, specifically housing development for the low and middle income groups. 'Perumnas' or the National Housing Company is created by the government to take the responsibility of providing and developing affordable housing through a long term loan provided by the Bank Tabungan Negara (the State Savings Bank), with more careful observation to the population growth and its distribution, land use planning in urban and rural areas, job opportunity, health environment, social facility, local building material production, and maintain a balance with the regional development.Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia with its population of more than seven million people has become the primary city in Indonesia and it has been also as a major destination for migrants for jobs opportunities, public services, and information.This study has explored the National Housing Company strategies in dealing with the housing demand and the fast growing population, limited government financial funds, and land availability with special observation to the development of affordable housing in Jakarta; how the National Housing Company financed the housing program includes land and housing development, the methods of building construction, and the method of long term housing payment.Department of Urban Planning

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Sheltering has been one of the basic rights of human beings during the history of civilization. As it is stated in the Article 25 of Universal Declaration of Human Rights, dated 1948, housing right is one of the basic human rights. Therefore, housing is always taken as one of the core issues for the life of individuals and states undertake this matter on behalf of its citizens. However, a full supply of proper housing to meet the housing need of particularly low income groups is still an unresolved issue in many countries. Therefore, states take different actions for the solution of the issue. In Turkey, TOKI has become the single authority in meeting the housing need of lower income households.
Within this context, this thesis focuses on the adequate supply of housing in meeting housing need in provinces and searched for the housing provision of TOKI as a governmental agency and a significant housing provider. In order to show this, a case study was conducted on provinces in Turkey by comparing the total number of dwelling units and dwelling units provided by TOKI with newly formed householdsin addition by calculating the number of dwelling units per 1000 households per year. The case study covered the populations and annual housing starts in the municipalities of 81 provinces. The hypothesis of the thesis that expects to find mismatch between housebuilding by TOKI, which produces housing on publicly owned land, and housing need is not fully confirmed in this study. It appears that TOKI has intensified producing housing in many eastern and south-eastern provinces where the number of authorized housing built has been less than the need.

This report examines the Town of Frisco, Colorado development process utilized to implement an attainable housing development within a resort style community. This report begins with the review of historic trends in affordable housing initiatives in American culture that has led to the importance of creating a diverse housing stock. The report was conducted by review of articles, government records, private and public reports, and research on the housing demand and analysis in the regional area. This report was conducted to provide resort style communities, similar to the Town of Frisco, a clear process of implementing an attainable housing development through the use of private/public partnerships. Frisco’s private/public partnership with the development team of Ten Mile Partners serves as a plausible process a community can undertake to increase a community’s housing stock diversity and affordability for long term residents.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The issue of human settlements has recently gained much momentum particularly in cities across the world due to rapid rates of urbanization. The housing crisis is manifesting mostly in the cities of the developing countries; the urban poor population is left with no option, they are continuously living in substandard and unsustainable housing conditions due to the desperate housing need. There is a growing trend of migration into urban centers in the developing countries as well as natural population increase in the cities. The inevitable development is the rapid growth of urbanization. The theories on urbanization suggest that the responsible government and local council authorities must be prepared to address socio-economic issues such as the provision of formal housing, infrastructure development and employment creation. The governments in developing countries are struggling to balance economic development and the provision of social services. As a result, the human settlement sector is suffering lack of prioritization when it comes to budget and resource allocation. The resultant factors are the overcrowding of the urban population, high housing backlogs and dilapidation of infrastructure visible mostly in the major cities of the developing countries.

The past three decades have been a time of intensive development for high-rise housing in Shanghai. It has grown from an experimental prototype to the city's predominant form of housing. In this thesis, three periods in the developmental progress of Shanghai's high-rise housing will be examined, beginning in 1972. The interrelationships between the specific socioeconomic contexts, building codes, and design strategies are explored sequentially, and twelve typical high-rise housing projects are discussed, in an effort to trace the evolution of high-rise housing design strategies.The study focuses primarily on three aspects of high-rise housing design: site organization, building design and unit layout. Responses to socio-economic transformation and building code regulations related to architectural design strategies are explored from the macro to the micro level. The experiences and lessons learned from previous works are reviewed, as well as suggestions for improving the performance of future projects, through approaches to architectural design and building-code adjustments.
