Pakistan launches a renewed national housing policy:
Pakistan’s Ministry of Housing and Works, in collaboration with UN-Habitat Pakistan, launched its updated national housing policy on World Habitat Day. The policy focuses on increasing affordable housing supply, improving access to housing finance, strengthening land-tenure security, upgrading informal settlements, and promoting climate-resilient communities. Officials highlighted Pakistan’s estimated housing deficit of approximately 13 million units and the importance of translating policy commitments into practical results.
