A comprehensive governmental policy framework consists of planning and policies that foster citizen engagement and widespread economic opportunity, and take into account the interdependence of urban structures. IHC Global’s “ideal” policy framework is:
- A housing delivery system attuned to affordability and the overall market;
- Formalized land and property markets secured by tenure property rights;
- Equitable access to basic services of water, sanitation, education, health and supportive of the Global Goal on cities (SDG 11) and the New Urban Agenda (NUA);
- Partnerships and engagement of private sector, civil society and non-profits, and local and national governments for implementation.
