UNITED NATIONS HSP United Nations Human Settlements Programme Existing multilateral and bilateral support for the development

4 Oct 2024

Details on the methodology are provided in the survey of existing multilateral and bilateral support for the development and implementation of effective housing policies, programmes and projects.4 III. [...] Most of the funds have been disbursed by multilateral institutions (almost 50 billion USD), with the European Investment Bank (EIB – 17,692M USD), the World Bank (WB – 17,589M USD), the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB – 8,167M USD), and the Asian Development Bank (ADB – 3,018M USD) accounting for the majority (over 90%) of funds allocated to the development and implementation of effective hou. [...] The regional spread of multilateral and bilateral support for the development and implementation of effective housing policies programmes and projects shows the most significant contributions dedicated to the European region which accounts for 40% of the total funds disbursed (21.7 billion USD). [...] (a) The Arab region is the only region where contributions from bilateral institutions (1 802 M USD) are higher than the multilateral ones (1 018 M USD) as the World Bank is the only multilateral institution with projects in the region. [...] The limited amount of funding combined with the limited relevance of market-enabling strategies to the poorest households suggests that it will be challenging to meet housing needs especially in the regions facing the most rapidly growing and evolving housing demand.
