Client: UN-Habitat

2022
By 2030, UN-Habitat estimates that 3 billion people, about 40 per cent of the world’s population, will need access to adequate housing. Access to housing is a precondition for access to employment, education, health, and social services.
One core UN-Habitat activities include promoting access to housing. This evaluation focuses on the agency’s impact and contribution to the improvement of the living standards of poor people and to the realization of their housing rights.
In collaboration with Michael Bamberger and Mike Majale.
The evaluation includes the assessment of the contribution of UN-Habitat’s Housing Approach, policy frameworks, programmes and capacity building to the progress in adequate and affordable housing and poverty reduction at global level. It includes the analyses at Global, Regional-level and country case studies for Zambia and Mexico (country visits) Mozambique, Somalia, Iraq, Egypt, Jordan, Myanmar, Mongolia, Sri Lanka, Colombia and Haiti (remote assessments).
The assessment of achievements and contribution covers structural (policy frameworks), process (policy instruments) and outcome (realization of housing rights) levels.
