The TC's objective is to assist the Government of Jamaica to develop a policy framework and action plan for urban renewal and propose strategies in relation to affordable financing solutions for sustainable low-income households, treating with social housing; and to facilitate the revision of the Housing Public-Private Partnership Policy (HPPP). To achieve this objective, this Technical Cooperation will specifically review all the existing policies (including the new Squatter Policy that is being developed and the draft National Housing Policy and Implementation Plan for Jamaica) and develop a National Urban Renewal Policy and Action Plan and come up with financing solutions for low-income housing for the underserved including the use of public-private partnership and guarantee instruments.
