Policy Labs on Affordable Rental Housing

In 2020, GIZ along with CPR, World Bank, Cities Alliance, etc. had jointly organized a 4-part series ‘Policy Labs on Affordable Rental Housing’.

The objective was to discuss the present state of rental housing in India, the potential of the newly launched ARHC scheme, and the framework that would be required to sustain this initiative in the long run. Researchers and practitioners from across the world convened for the policy lab series to address the following topics:

• Policy & Legal Framework for Enabling Rental Housing
