Publications

IFHP produces annual publications, newsletters and publications related to events.

The publications related to conferences and congresses can be found on a seperate list.

Annual publications

Annually IFHP produces three publications:

  • Latest Developments in the Field of Housing and Planning
    The 2008 edition of IFHP’s Latest Developments series is a collection of papers on “affordable housing”, on the occasion of the World Congress in Puerto Rico on the same theme. The publication has 21 papers from around the world (from Australia to Venezuela), with every continent represented. The aim was to provide a picture of the affordable housing issues in each country, explaining the “what” but also giving a local expert’s perspective on the policy responses, and the effectiveness of those responses in each particular jurisdiction.
    Each member has received a copy of this publication. Additional copies are for sale.
    Editions from previous years are also available. Please contact the Secretariat for more details.
  • The IFHP Membership List & Directory
    This is published and distributed to the members at the beginning of each calendar year.
  • Congress Report
    The congress report of the 51st IFHP World Congress ‘Future of cities : Principles Congress Competition’ was published in October 2008. See also the list of available congress reports.
