Joint FIG–UN-Habitat Seminar on "Improving Slum Conditions through Innovative Financing" - 16-18 June 2007
During two days of the 2008 Working Week special attention will be paid to this in a series of sessions, jointly organised between FIG and UN-Habitat, in which the possibilities of the surveying world and the financial sector in changing this will be the main focus. What are the pro-poor tools that can be used in formalising informal rights and where have they been used successfully; which innovative financial solutions can be used in liberating capital for housing improvements; what do they require in the form of land administration systems are some of the questions for which we will seek answers during what is aimed to be a dialogue between professionals working within this broad spectrum of activities. You can participate in the preparations and dialogues by visiting the conference web site at www.justnsustshelter.org Register to FIG / UN-HABITAT Dialogues.
