place to live.

Building strength, stability, and self-reliance through shelter.

Build Resilient Housing

There is an opportunity to enhance disaster resilience by building safe, resilient homes with climate-resistant materials and designs, while also integrating basic services solutions, and gender equality, disability and social inclusion (GEDSI). This would significantly reduce the vulnerability of low-income families to climate-related disasters, improving their safety and well-being.

Strengthen Housing Governance and Systems

Habitat Cambodia collaborates with line ministries, local authorities, and communities to strengthen housing governance and foster greater community participation in housing policy implementation. By advocating for better enforcement of housing policies and improving coordination among stakeholders, Habitat Cambodia can help address housing inequality and promote inclusive development, including gender norms, and gender equity.

Influence Housing Market Development

Habitat Cambodia drive positives change in the housing market by conducting research to address supply shortages and affordability issues, while upgrading construction skills to enhance the quality and efficiency of housing development. Through partnerships with banks, MFIs, and government vocational training institutions, Habitat Cambodia can improve access to finance for women, marginalized communities and small housing developers.
