Organization Description |
UN-HABITAT, among other activities, conducts both normative and operational activities in human settlements development and finance, which covers four main areas:
• Analysing and evaluating housing and urban finance experiences, particularly affordable financing mechanisms;
• Financing municipal services in a decentralized environment;
• Promoting the institutional and policy development of housing and urban finance;
• Developing finance strategies for the underserved poor people.
UN-ECLAC, among other activities, identifies the capacity and limitations of municipalities in addressing low income and poverty issues. It examines the financing structure of municipalities in different countries, resources availability and management and implementation issues.
