During this we explored the complex question of “affordable housing,” analyzing the varying definitions and implementations across different regions and governance structures. We discussed the distinction between social housing and affordable housing, and how these models can address the diverse needs of urban populations.

This sixth session will examine how housing policies influence social and economic inequality, exploring the role of urban development strategies in either perpetuating or addressing disparities. It will focus on how inclusive housing policies can contribute to social equity and help create more just, resilient cities.
