Impact Assessment of the National Shelter Program

Description

Given the performance indicated by the outputs of the housing sector, NEDA affirms that it merits to conduct a broader and more recent assessment of the NSP as the government's overall housing program/strategy, particularly in its implementation in the past fifteen years (2001-2015). A performance assessment of the sector through the conduct of an impact assessment focusing on the three key direct housing assistance programs, such as the Resettlement Program (RP), Community Mortgage Program (CMP), and End-User Financing Program (EFP), has been envisioned to assist NEDA in providing sound and evidence-based policy advice related to housing, urban development, and social sector development. The findings and recommendations from the study will also help facilitate and strengthen the linkage between the planning cum investment and budgeting processes for the shelter sector.
