The Housing working group was officially launched in May 2022, and it is chaired by Mr. Jorge Alberto Torres Vallejo, Director of Economic studies and information at the Colombian Chamber of Construction – CAMACOL.

A decent place to live is one of the most prominent necessities of humankind, and it was made even clearer during the COVID19 pandemic. However, public and private sectors face challenges providing high quality homes and, unfortunately, slums flourish all around the globe.  

Main topics defined for the group’s agenda

• Affordable housing
• Demographic transition
• Actions for sustainability
• Urban planning
• Tax regimes
