The Strategy for Sustainable Housing and Land Management in the ECE Region for the Period 2014-2020 was adopted by the Ministerial Meeting on Housing and Land Management on 8 October 2013 in Geneva.

Abstract (Deutsch)

The Strategy, which has a voluntary character, builds on existing and commonly accepted documents from the United Nations system. It aims at promoting sustainable housing and land management in the ECE region. It will guide the work of the Committee, its Working Party on Land Administration and the Real Estate Market Advisory Group. It will also further strengthen the implementation of existing tools and policy guidance of the Committee as well as contribute to the overall improvement of the housing and land management situation both nationally and regionally.

The first part of the Strategy contains 15 objectives (A to O) and 36 targets. These are organized under four themes: Sustainable housing and real estate markets; Sustainable urban development; Sustainable land administration and management; Cross-cutting themes (topics which cover two or three of the other areas).

The second part of the Strategy outlines the types of activities that the Committee will use to achieve its objectives and targets. These activities were highlighted as priorities in the results of the survey on challenges and priorities in housing and land management for the ECE region.
