USAID, Lesotho, March 1998 – April
2000
TCGI was contracted directly to assist the government in developing
a national policy for improving shelter and urban conditions
throughout Lesotho. The policy will guide planning and investment
in the housing sector as well as assisting the government
to obtain additional financing both from internal and external
sources. This project is being implemented in three phases.
During phase one, TGCI prepared a rapid sector assessment,
which analyzed both the formal and informal aspects of the
housing sector by focusing on three main activities: shelter
delivery, urban management and resource mobilization. Based
on this assessment, TCGI drafted a National Shelter Policy
and, in phase three, TCGI will work to develop consensus among
stakeholders and key Basotho policy-makers for adopting the
policy.
