Who can still afford a home? | Counting the Cost

Up to 3.4 billion people worldwide lack access to adequate housing. By 2030, the world will need $3 to $4 trillion dollars to provide affordable and accessible housing, as well as the construction of 96,000 new homes every day.

Governments are beginning to act.

In the United States, a rare bipartisan housing bill has just passed the Senate. In Europe, the European Commission is pushing new affordability measures. In the United Kingdom, landmark legislation has ended no-fault evictions. And in Africa, the Nairobi Declaration commits nations to accelerating affordable housing delivery.
